KLANG (Bernama): The Selangor Health Department has praised the actions of a restaurant worker in Section 25, Shah Alam near here who tried to implement the smoking ban on the premises despite being slapped in an incident on Tuesday (Jan 1). "This (the enforcement of smoking ban) is not merely the restaurant's issue but it is a prohibition made by the government. The public should accept it openly," he told reporters after an operation on the smoking ban around Klang here on Thursday (Jan 3). He said this when asked to comment on the 12.30pm incident when an Indian worker at the restaurant was slapped by a customer after he told the latter not to smoke on the premises. The employee politely told three customers not to light up and was slapped on the face by one of them but he was not hurt.
