Sri Lanka, July 22 -- Today, many supermarkets have liquor counters right next to vegetables, bread, and children's products. The main problem is that they don't provide black bags to hide the bottles.

After purchasing, the customer has to hold the bottles in their hands, pass all the other counters, and walk out of the checkout area. Public display of alcohol in front of children, families, and the elderly 'unintentionally' promotes alcohol. This is against the purpose of the law restricting alcohol advertising.

My suggestions:

1. A liquor section with a separate entrance; a way to enter directly from the street, buy, and exit without going through the supermarket, as in many countries.

2. Make black bags mandatory -- In Middle East...
