Can hotels in Singapore smoke?

Smoking is not allowed in hotels in Singapore. Smoking is prohibited in all hotel rooms and can only be smoked in designated areas outside the hotel. Violators will face a maximum fine of more than 5000 yuan.

It is a social common sense to control smoking in public places and prohibit smoking in indoor public places. However, although there are no-smoking signs in many places, there are always people who turn a blind eye to the implementation. The reason why it cannot be banned is because of the lack of disciplinary measures and the low cost of illegal activities.

Hazards of smoking:

1. Influence on cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases: Smoking is an important inducement of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension and coronary heart disease. Statistics show that 75% of patients with coronary heart disease and hypertension have a history of smoking. Nicotine and carbon monoxide in smoke are considered as harmful substances.

Smoking can cause damage to vascular endothelial cells, increase cholesterol, lead to contraction of peripheral blood vessels and coronary arteries, and myocardial hypoxia. Therefore, smokers with cardiovascular diseases are more prone to arrhythmia and the risk of sudden death is increased.

2. Impact on respiratory tract: Smoking is one of the main causes of chronic bronchitis, emphysema and chronic airway obstruction. The probability of smokers suffering from chronic bronchitis is 2-4 times higher than that of non-smokers. Patients often have chronic cough, expectoration and dyspnea during activities. Even young asymptomatic smokers have slight lung dysfunction.

3. Carcinogenesis: The most direct cancer related to smoking is lung cancer. Studies have shown that if you smoke more than 35 cigarettes a day, the probability of developing lung cancer is 45 times higher than that of non-smokers. Smoking will reduce the activity of natural killer cells, thus weakening the body's function of monitoring, killing and clearing tumor cells, which further explains why smoking is a high risk factor for many cancers.
