E puhi ʻole ʻia kekahi mau alanui kūlanakauhale o Perth e hoʻomaka ana i ka Pōʻalua, mahalo i ka pāpā ʻana i ka vaping hou.

ʻO nā alanui nui i hoʻopilikia ʻia e ka pāpā ʻo Oxford St. ma Leederville, Scarborough Beach Rd. ma nā alanui mauna ʻo Hawthorn, Fitzgerald a me Angove ma North Perth, a me kekahi mau alahele kokoke.
Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mekia Emma Cole o ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Vincent, ʻo ka hoʻokō ʻana he pahuhopu nui ia o ka hoʻolālā olakino lehulehu o ka ʻaha kūkā.
“Ua hoʻokō mākou i kēia pahuhopu, a hauʻoli wau i ka ʻike ʻana i nā kamaʻāina a me nā malihini e hauʻoli ana i ka ea hou, maʻemaʻe vaping a me ka puhi paka ʻana i loko o kā mākou wahi leʻaleʻa," wahi a Ms. Cole.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua makemake ka ʻaha kūkā e hoʻoikaika i nā poʻe e hoʻōki a hoʻonāwaliwali i ka hanauna ʻōpio mai ka hoʻomaka ʻana.

Hoʻopaʻi ʻia ʻo $100-$200 i ʻeono mahina ma hope o ka hāpai ʻana i ka pāpā.
Ua hoʻomaikaʻi ʻo Libby Jardine, ka luna papahana no ka Cancer Council WA's Make Smoking History initiative, i ke kūlanakauhale ʻo Vincent no ka "paving the way" ma kēia hoʻolaha.
"Ke manaʻolana nei mākou e hoʻoikaika kēia i nā luna kūloko e hana mua i ka mālama ʻana i ka paka a me ka wehe ʻana i nā wahi ākea no ka loaʻa ʻana o kā lākou hui," wahi āna.
