– With the city government’s effort to make Davao City a smoke-free city by 2022, the Vice Regulation Unit has seen an increase in the number of apprehended violators.
This figure was higher compared with the number of violators apprehended in 2018 with 9,521 apprehensions and 7,799 individuals to have been counseled and fined. He said one reason for this was because the city has been trying to maximize the number of enforcers that could cover every corner of Davao City. Lopez noted that enforcers have been present almost 24/7.
Lopez said, however, that even with the implementation of the law, it did not mean that it would automatically or immediately stop individuals from smoking as it needs further supplemental interventions.
