Latka 1st Gear February 14, 2011 Share February 14, 2011 Feb 15, 2011 'No smoking' rule in coffee shop ignored LAST Wednesday, I was at Ting and Ting Foodcourt at Block 494, Jurong West, around 7pm, and saw three customers smoking at a table in the "no smoking" area there. The coffee shop owner did not do anything to stop them. I hope the relevant authorities will step up their spot checks to ensure coffee shop owners enforce the "no smoking" rule. Also, it should be made compulsory for coffee shops to display prominently the relevant hotline number for members of the public to report instances of non-conformity to this rule. In this way, the authorities will be able to take immediate action against coffee shop owners who do not enforce the rule. Anthony Goh Isn't there a NEA hotline he can call to send officers down to spot check? Unless owners face hefty fines then they wl be more on the ball abit. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonTan 2nd Gear February 15, 2011 Share February 15, 2011 How come gov don't hire more Officer to go around catching people? Or is it that officers also knock off at 5:30pm, so evening time cannot catch smokers. Or could it be these officers will purposely find work to try to stay in office all day, like iso9000, filing cases, preparing agenda plans, do PowerPoint presentations,etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfy3769 2nd Gear February 15, 2011 Share February 15, 2011 take photo... write to NEA... this will get the coffeeshop in trouble... coffeeshop owner's pocket not pain... no action will be taken... once kena fine by NEA... they will automatically enforce the no-smoking law. some may say abit harsh.. but that could be the only way to improve the situation...

Gearoil 1st Gear February 15, 2011 Share February 15, 2011 These NEA ppl knows that they need to approach possible 'nasty' ppl to carry out this task....( didn't I tell ppl here, ALL smokers are nasty in some respect) So rules like this are called...LIP SERVICE RULES. Maybe Anthony Goh wasn't taught this, when he was in school! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
