BEIJING will strive to make all the city's indoor public places, workplaces and public transport smoke-free by 2015, said local health authorities.
Hospitals, schools, theaters, museums, business halls, stadiums, offices and government organizations, as well as buses, taxis and subways, should hopefully be smoke-free by then, said Mao Yu, spokesman for the Beijing Municipal Health Bureau, on Friday.
The municipal government issued a smoking ban in 2008 ahead of the Beijing Olympics, but the rules haven't been effectively implemented.
Mao said, "The current smoking-control regulations still need to be improved."
He said the first step was for health authorities to better enforce the ban in medical institutions, as a drop in medical professionals smoking could set an example for society.
