Implementasi Larangan Merokok di Tempat Anak Bermain berdasarkan Peraturan Daerah Nomor 4 Tahun 2025 Tentang Kawasan Tanpa Rokok Kecamatan Pontianak Tenggara

The prohibition of smoking in children's play areas is part of the Smoke-Free Area (Kawasan Tanpa Rokok/KTR) policy aimed at protecting the public, particularly children, from exposure to tobacco smoke. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the smoking prohibition in children's play areas based on Pontianak City Regional Regulation Number 4 of 2025 concerning Smoke-Free Areas in Southeast Pontianak District and to identify the supporting and inhibiting factors affecting its implementation. This study employs a socio-legal research method by examining legal provisions and their implementation in practice. The findings indicate that the implementation of the smoking prohibition in children's play areas has not yet been optimal. The policy is supported by a clear legal basis, inter-agency coordination, public dissemination, and the involvement of government officials and area managers. However, several obstacles remain, including inadequate supervision, low public awareness and compliance, insufficient dissemination, limited resources, weak commitment among some area managers, and suboptimal enforcement of sanctions. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen public dissemination, conduct regular supervision, provide clear no-smoking signs, and ensure consistent law enforcement so that the smoking prohibition can be effectively implemented and provide adequate protection for children from exposure to tobacco smoke.
