China, the world’s largest tobacco producer and consumer, will ban all forms of tobacco promotion by January 2011.

A ban on tobacco advertising has been in place since 1996, but firms have managed to sidestep the rules and promote their brands in other ways such as supporting sporting events, or using their logos without mentioning "cigarettes" on television, radio and in newspapers and magazines.

Xu Guihua, vice-president of China Tobacco Control Association, made the landmark announcement on Monday in Guangghou. She said the country is committed to fulfill its obligations(义务) to the World Health Organization (WHO) Framework Convention on Tobacco Control, of which China formally became a member last January.

However, it is believed that China falls behind other countries in efforts to control the use of tobacco, and the biggest problem is the lack of national laws banning smoking in public areas.

To date, fewer than half the cities have framed rules on smoking bans in some public spaces. Efforts to ban smoking in other areas such as bars and restaurants have been stopped by unwilling owners and managers who fear a loss of business.

Figures from the Ministry of Health show that China has an estimated 350 million smokers, almost a third of the world. Cigarette makers spent more than 1.6 billion yuan to promote their brands last year, according to China Youth Daily. In 2005 the government collected 240 billion yuan in tobacco taxes.

Yang Yah, a researcher with Chinese Center for Disease Prevention and Control, said 12 percent of deaths in China are caused by tobacco related illnesses, and by 2025, that figure will climb to 33 percent.
