Dr. J Miyamoto presented a process of the Kanagawa Prefectual Anti-smoking Act and the adverse outcome of the local ordinance.

Dr. J Miyamoto warned the danger of that Japan becomes 'an unwanted smoking-restricted country', among the world,
if other local anti-smoking ordinances allow to set up a separate smoking space and further admit to working
in that section at food industries.

Dr. J Miyamoto presented a scene of the meeting at the headquarter of Japan Medical Society. Guest speakers,
Dr. M P Langer and Mr. L Binding talked to the importance not to provide a smoking space inside of the building.
No one should be worked in a toxic smoking area.

Dr. J Miyamoto stressed that smoking ban should be applied to a restaurant, bar and pub at the different stages.
He advised the content of a total smoking ban should be simple and clear, excluding numerous exceptions.
