Many citizens of Nanjing, capital of East China's Jiangsu Province, are angry with the adverts for sex health products illuminated by street lights in the evening.

These adverts were very eye-catching at night, and some of the words were either harmful or misleading to teenagers, said a Nanjing resident surnamed He, who usually goes to work during the night.

Besides, none of these adverts gave any explanation of the side effect of these products, added He.

According to regulations on strengthening the management of medical treatment adverts in October, 2000, it is unlawful to have such adverts on lights or banners outdoors.
