Sorry middle schoolers, no more smoking breaks

Shanghai Daily reports today that the city's rolling smoking ban has been expanded to middle schools around town. We're not really sure what's more striking: the fact that the ban didn't include schools with young students to begin with, or the fact that people smoke in schools regularly.The new policy will include maximum fines up to 30,000RMB, which we imagine is a hefty fine if you're a middle schooler.
