    On May 31, world no tobacco day 28, health and family planning commission and other units jointly sponsored by the state tobacco control campaign in Beijing Olympic park held in the national stadium (bird's nest). The graph is volunteers show tobacco control square dance. CFP for figure 
 
    On June 1st, is called "history's most strict controls of smoke to the formal implementation of the Beijing tobacco control ordinance to become one of the hot spot in the media this week. But a little comb can discover, public opinion, dubbed "the most severe" place tobacco-control regulation is not in the minority. With the passage of time, many parts of the tobacco control dynamics does not conform with the public the original expectations, "the history of the most severe" was interpreted by the media as "the most tightly on paper". The Beijing tobacco control still need to breakthrough bottlenecks? Tobacco control practice in other cities, which provides the experience for Beijing?
 
    Most of the "most strict"
 
    Implementation is not optimistic
 
    So far, we have already had 16 large and medium-sized cities issued CCDC. Shanghai, shenzhen, changchun and other cities of CCDC, have been in a media dubbed "" in the history of the most strict controls of smoke. But as time goes on, most of the city to carry out the situation is not optimistic.
 
    On July 1, 2014, for example, the nanning tobacco control regulations formally implemented. According to local media reports, the implementation regulations will soon a year, but nanning has yet to issue a tobacco fines. Promulgation and the implementation regulations on the control of smoking in public places in Shanghai has been almost five years, Shanghai municipal bureau of statistics recently released according to the survey, when asked about the Shanghai public smoking condition to improve the effect of satisfaction, 55.3% of respondents said the effect in general, 16.2% said no effect, the two accounted for nearly 80% of all respondents.
 
    "The most strict rules, in fact is we should have done." Xu guihua, China tobacco control association, in November 2003, China became the world health organization framework convention on tobacco control 77 signatories. As the parties, China's commitment on January 9, 2011 in indoor public places and a ban on smoking in indoor workplaces. Visible, many cities "in the history of the rein to" both in stringency and implementation time lags behind the requirements of the convention.
 
    "Compared to the 1990 s, Shanghai, Beijing and other cities of tobacco control legislation has made great progress, but there is still a large gap with the convention requirements." Xu Guihua said.
 
    Healthy development of the new agent Wu Yiqun said, deputy director of the centre for the study of tobacco control difficult to roughly several reasons: lack of public participation; National level can't can depend on. Enterprise management, selling cigarettes in tobacco control; Lack of tobacco advertising control; Tobacco control law enforcement efficiency is low. "These problems pose serious test to Beijing tobacco control."
 
    How to start
 
    "Silent majority"
 
    "Well, I already used to it." In a Beijing architectural design company engaged in design work of ms dong said, "heavy smoker" in the office, she would stand the smoke every day. Due to smoke in the architectural design company employees, do not smoke became instead of miss dong. "Around colleagues are in the smoke, who advised? Can't each go ahead." Miss dong said that the company's boss, managers are also smokers, not discouraged, and discourage ordinary staff, and seems to be a joke aimed at leadership. "Can only endure."
 
    Tobacco control ahead of new rules on the implementation of Beijing tobacco association released figures showing that at present the city a total of 4.19 million smokers, not smoking suffers the danger of secondhand smoke is more than 1000, ten thousand people. Another network of 100000 non-smokers to participate in the survey, asked "if you find someone smoking in smoking is forbidden in places, will come forward to dissuade", made it clear that only 31.5% of those who "would discourage", and made it clear that "not dissuade" accounted for 37.4%, and 30% said "I don't know". In another survey, only twenty percent netizens would dissuade put out cigarette smokers, more people choose "silently walk away.
 
    "Beijing CCDC law enforcement main body is health supervision department, but only more than 1000 people. The city's health supervision personnel enforcement difficulty cans be imagined." By the Beijing municipal health supervision, deputy director of the Wang Benjin admitted, how to launch more than 1000 "silent majority", take the initiative to safeguard health rights, discourage smoking, become one of the key to implement the regulations on tobacco control.
 
    Work for the government of Mr. Ding has recently started to learn to smoke. He told the reporters, every time go out to eat dinner party, handed a smoke, quickly close relationships, yourself don't think smoking is a weakness, let alone want to discourage smoking. Gave him a tangled, that at the meeting, leaders threw the cigarette case one on the table, don't like, it is not their own. ", anyway, all want to secondhand smoke is also smoke."
 
    , hotpot restaurant dining in a restaurant in the workplace, many people said that discourage other guests to smoke, total feel a little make a mountain out of a molehill, more afraid of is contested.
 
    "Tobacco control to the authority of the first based on universal recognition. If everyone think others has nothing to do with his smoking, more than the less, so we can only continue to be the victim in the silence." Wu Yiqun said.
 
    At present Beijing regulation, if the premises found someone is smoking, while to dissuade people will be punished. Some companies said, if the place is punished, the bonuses of their staff will be "involved". "This will force place employees, discourage smoking participation." Wang Benjin said.
 
    Yang jie, a researcher at the Chinese centers for disease control and prevention, control office, said the public participation on tobacco control is not high, also associated with insufficient public understanding of secondhand smoke exposure hazards. In 2012, the original report, the harm to smoking in China issued by the ministry of health show that more than two-thirds of the Chinese people don't know the dangers of secondhand smoke exposure. Most people will usually just smoking as a kind of individual behavior. "From the context, the Chinese people for the understanding of the dangers of tobacco is still lacking, some people turn a blind eye, even the society as a whole did not form a good atmosphere of tobacco control." Yang jie said.
 
    "National edition" tobacco control
 
    To be issued as soon as possible
 
    "Today, our country is still not a tobacco control law at the national level." Vice President of China tobacco control association, Beijing union medical college professor of epidemiology and public health Yang gonghuan is sorry to say.
 
    , says vice President of China university of politics and law Ma Huaide local tobacco control regulations amount but overall quality is not high, more than for advocacy, suggested terms, to limit tobacco industry development also not make that clear. , according to data from 2004 to 2014, the national total cigarette production increased by 39%. "This lack of national level tobacco control law and our country have certain relations." Ma Huaide said. In addition, due to the legislation law, the law on administrative punishments, such as host law constraints, these local rules and regulations in such aspects as penalties are not ideal.
 
    Experts suggest that at present there are 16 cities nationwide have been introduced their respective control, although there is insufficient, but it summed up the valuable experience. Should be issued as soon as possible by "national edition" tobacco control, make guidance to local tobacco control. Yang gonghuan suggest the tobacco into "much starker choices-and graver consequences-in planning in our country, the national special tobacco control action plan.
 
    "National related departments should strengthen research on smoke pollution prevention and control, the" law on the prevention and control of smoke harm or as soon as possible the tobacco control act listed in the national legislative planning, at the same time should also be revised tobacco monopoly, minors protection law and other relevant provisions of law, the relevant laws and regulations about tobacco control unity, form a complete set, and form a complete system." Ma Huaide said.
 
    In November 2014, the state of health and family planning commission to draft the "public places CCDC SongShenGao (draft)" has been submitted to the legislative affairs office of the state council, faces the society for advice. "It made a good start, but also needs more laws related to form a complete set, forming punch." Ma Huaide said.
 
    Control can't let
 
    "The fox discussion protect chickens"
 
    In addition to the laws and regulations on the level of a country, is currently the most urgent is to really implement our country has already promised to the convention in place. In Yang gonghuan opinion, this is difficult, the reason is that the existing mechanism of tobacco control.
 
    "Talk about how to protect the chicken cages in the fox sat. Yang gonghuan described the mechanism of tobacco control in China. She told reporters that China is the world's few still of monopoly system of cigarette, authorized administrative agencies - the state tobacco monopoly administration management of tobacco products from the whole process of cultivation, production and sales. Another identity and it is the China national tobacco corporation.
 
    China was founded in 2007 by eight ministries and commissions of the convention performance inter-ministerial work leading group, including the state tobacco monopoly administration. The bureau as a government department to perform convention on tobacco control obligations, but, at the same time, the tobacco companies, and to maintain interest in the industry. These two roles there are irreconcilable conflict.
 
    "Discuss smoking control this public health policy, sat beside representing the tobacco companies. It is as if let the fox sitting in cages, discuss how to protect the chicken, the result cans be imagined." Yang gonghuan said.
 
    International tobacco control conference, 2008, 200 public welfare organizations, will the dirty ashtray award went to China, the reason is "ning to beautiful cigarette case, don't citizens health". In Uruguay Wu Yiqun, said in November 2010 at the 4th meeting of the parties to the convention, aims to explore involving in the convention "regulation of the contents of tobacco products and tobacco product disclosures rules" of the implementation of the standards, but with the ministry of industry and information technology and staff of the Chinese delegation headed by the state tobacco monopoly administration object for many times, and stressed that tobacco is an important pillar industry of China.
 
    "Strengthening tobacco control efforts, first of all should be 'both the referee and athletes' miit' please go out from the performance team." Wu Yiqun said.
