Don't smoke or litter.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation in the activities of the neighborhood association.

Now, regarding the title of this article, we have received reports from several community members that cigarette butts have been thrown out in front of their homes and that there is littering.

Not only for the reasons listed below, but also as a matter of good manners, the Residents' Association would like to request in this circular that you stop smoking and littering.

• Littering is a nuisance to neighbors. It also spoils the beauty of the town.
• Littering, especially with cigarettes, can cause fires and is very dangerous.
• In addition, the mindless behavior of some people further narrows the stakes for smokers.

reference

• Higashimatsuyama City has an ordinance entitled " Prevention of Smoking on Streets and Littering of Empty Cans, etc. " and in some cases, a fine will be imposed.
• It might be a good idea to have a portable ashtray, which can be purchased for ¥1,000 to ¥2,000, so if you like to smoke while taking a walk, you might consider purchasing one.
