She said the country is devoted toperforming its duties to the World Health Organization （WHO） Framework Convention onTobacco Control. China formally became a member of the convention last January. Xu saidthe nation falls behind other countries in efforts to control the use of tobacco, and thebiggest problem is the lack of national rule banning smoking in public areas.

Efforts to bansmoking in other areas such as karaoke parlors and restaurants have been stifled byunwilling owners and managers who fear a loss of business. Figures from the Ministry ofHealth show that China has an estimated 350 million smokers, almost a third of the worlds1.1 billion smokers.　　Cigarette makers spent more than 1.6 billion yuan promoting their brands last year,according to China Youth Daily. According to the WHO convention, tobacco products mustcarry clear health warnings on the packaging. This measure needs to be carried out withinthree years from when China signed the convention. Within five years, China must carry outhis promise to comprehensively ban all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion andsponsorship.
