煙草在線據Novinite報道編譯　　有媒體報道，羅馬尼亞希望利用鄰國保加利亞在所有封閉的公共場所禁止吸煙的決定，使自己國家成為對煙民游客極具吸引力的旅游目的地。

　　在保加利亞6月1日實施全面禁煙后，度暑假的煙民可以來到羅馬尼亞，因為其對餐館、汽車、酒店和辦公室的控煙政策非常寬松。

　　目前，羅馬尼亞和保加利亞都執行部分地區禁煙令，然而卻被廣泛地忽略。

　　據當地旅行社協會預計，今年，保加利亞的旅游勝地將接納1萬名來自鄰國羅馬尼亞的游客。

　　然而，商務人士警告說，巨大的游人流量是由于游客仍然不知道保加利亞將實行新的禁煙令。

　　保加利亞強制執行在封閉的公共場所全面禁煙的計劃，可追溯到2010年，但政府一直以它可能會損害該國的旅游業為由不斷推遲執行。

　　保加利亞的禁煙令反對者表示，一旦在咖啡館、酒吧和餐館實施禁煙令，不論規模大小，吸煙者的權利將受到侵犯，小型和中型企業也將面臨巨大的困難。

Romania Gloats about Beating Bulgaria with No Smoking Ban

　　Romania hopes to capitalize on the decision of neighboring Bulgaria to ban smoking in all enclosed public spaces, as it may be seen as an attractive destination for tobacco-addicted tourists, media reports say.

　　Tobacco-addicted summer holiday-makers can rely on Romania for laxer control in restaurants, cars, hotels and offices after Bulgaria introduces the full ban on June 1.

　　Currently, both Romania and Bulgaria impose a partial smoking ban, which is however widely ignored.

　　Bulgaria's resorts expect more 1 million tourists to come from neighboring Romania this year, according to the local association of travel agencies.

　　People from the business however caution that the huge flux is thanks to the fact the tourists are still not aware of the new rules Bulgaria has imposed.

　　The full smoking ban in closed public spaces was to be enforced in Bulgaria back in 2010, but was postponed by the government with the argument that it might harm the country's tourism.

　　Opponents to the ban in Bulgaria say once it is introduced in cafes, bars and restaurants, regardless of size, smokers' rights will be violated, while small and medium-sized enterprises will face huge difficulties.
