Philippines - Smoker to be deported...

Cigarette smoking is prohibited in the southern Philippine city of Davao in all public places. The taxi is considered a public utility vehicle. Tobacco smoking more and more, as sales continue to decline, is looked upon as anti-social and unacceptable behavior. Click on image to enlarge..
