Is Smoking in Japan Illegal? Please help me :)

Sagot :

No. nearly 30 million people smoke in Japan, making the country one of the
world's larger tobacco markets. Also, the government's Ministry of Finance
owns roughly one third of the stock of the country's tobacco manufacturers.
Finally, many members of the 'Diet of Japan' ... the country's parliament ...
have investments in the tobacco industry, so there are very few laws that
regulate the use of tobacco.

yes,in japan smoking is illegal.They will be sent to the prison because in japan the pollution is more due to the bomb attacks and over population so by drinking cigars the polution may increase and people may suffer a lot,so they will be punished
