PETALING JAYA: While some restaurants and food outlets in the Klang Valley are abiding by the smoking ban, that did not stop “undercover patrons” from lighting up. Although a check at a mamak shop in Taman Tun Dr Ismail showed that there were no-smoking signs put up at various areas, none of the patrons or the restaurant workers stopped them from lighting up. At a mamak shop in Phileo Damansara, the workers reminded patrons of the ban even before they had a chance to order food. “We have more patrons who are smokers and they wouldn’t return if I tell them to ‘get lost’ each time they light up a cigarette.
