Breaking News: Pattaya beaches restricted, more businesses close as Thailand reaches tipping point in coronavirus battle

Beach chairs will have to be rearranged so that they are at least 2 metres apart.

 

PATTAYA:--More Pattaya businesses will close and groups are banned from beaches as Chonburi takes more steps to control the spread of the coronavirus.

 

Gov. Pakarathorn Thienchai on March 23 signed the order closing public swimming pools and water parks; playgrounds and amusement parks; amulet markets; arcades, game centers and internet cafes; pool, chess and darts clubs; and bowling alleys across the provinces.

 

The order also included tighter screening and prohibiting people with high fever or respiratory problems to enter venues such as restaurants, fresh food markets, and cemeteries. Public canteens and toilets must be thoroughly cleaned. Golf courses are not allowed to hold any activities on the courses or clubhouses or hold any trophies presentation at this moment.

 

The closures will continue until “the (coronavirus) situation improves”, the governor said, making it all but certain that the earlier closure order set to expire on March 31 will be extended.

Golf courses are closed too, well in Bangkok all of them are close

Well we certainly would not want the dead to catch Coronavirus would we.....

Well i heard this morning a friend of my brother killed himself yesterday because of Corona, probably the golf course closures in England pushed him over the edge. They don't realise that people need to get out, social distancing should be the maximum they restrict people
