Bhutan Bans Smoking in public
A World first
"A total ban on the sale and smoking of tobaccos has been imposed in the country from December 17," said Lily Wangchuk, a spokeswoman at Bhutan's embassy in New Delhi.

"It is for the well-being of the people, to protect the environment and preserve our culture," she told Reuters.

People who cannot kick the habit can import tobacco for personal use, but at a 100 percent tax. They can only smoke indoors in the privacy of their homes.
