Taipei Times - archives.

On the second day since the new anti-tobacco regulation came into force, health officials yesterday continued issuing tickets to violators, mostly business owners who provided ashtrays or failed to display no-smoking signs. The first wave of inspections focused mainly on smoking in public places, he said. Most violations involved business owners who provided ashtrays or smoking-related paraphernalia, or who failed to display no-smoking signs that meet the requirements stipulated in the regulation.
