The order was marked to come into effect today (Jan 12) and will remain in effect until Jan 20 or further notice, the order explained.

 

The order marked that preventative measures were needed in order to prevent any further spread of COVID-19 considering the current outbreak of COVID-19 elsewhere in the country.

I don't think it would make much difference to bars/restaurants in Phuket. As there no one there to go in them anyway. Might even be a good thing as they will save on Electric.

Totally understandable! It´s much smaller risk to contract an infection of Covid-19 if you drink your beer 23.55, than in the high risk of infection zone that is to expected 15 minutes later.

I would have thought leaving them open is a preventative measure, as it is ALCOHOL!

Does anyone know.... are the bars in nana plaza/cowboy open? Or is everything shut?

Let's face it, more people would probably be getting the clap from bars than covid at midnight.

As C/P has said it's not in Phuket. But the answer to your question is No. Nothing open all are in the Red zone. Same goes for Pattaya. Ghost towns here we come.
