snoop1130 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 13 businesses can reopen as usual in Bangkok By The Nation Thirteen types of business are allowed to reopen in Bangkok on Friday as the Covid-19 outbreak in the capital eased. The Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) announced the outbreak had dropped from a peak of 49 new cases per day in the capital to around 10 cases daily. The latest contagion, which began in mid-December, had been contained faster than the first outbreak last year, said BMA spokesman Pongsakorn Kwanmuang.

Racecourses and stadiums except for horse racing and boxing (no spectators allowed) 5. Banquet rooms – though permission must be granted for more than 300 guests 6. Amulet shops 7. Beauty parlours and tattoo shops 8. Fitness centres 9. Massage shops and spas – but not massage parlours 10. Boxing gyms 11. Bowling alleys and skating rinks 12. Dance academies (no contests) 13.

Mike Teavee Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Oh well, it's a start... hopefully infections will remain low & more businesses will be able to open up after the next meeting. Does anybody know if you can have a drink with your meal in a restaurant yet or is that just Chiang Mai? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe here in Bangkok, condo swimming pools were never mandated to be closed. It seems that Juristic Persons (management companies) just closed the pools as they did last time. My condo closed the gym only and I've been able to enjoy the rooftop pool everyday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joe jadore Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Thank you Lord Buddha and Thai Gov, I am off to the Jetts gym asap! Gotta love Bangkok/Thailand, covid contained again, in next to no time, roll on the vaccines and lets look after the poor Thai folks who have suffered way more than us expats. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 So why is it that Chonburi, Rayong, Chantaburi and Trat are still classed as Red Zones and under "full lockdown" restrictions when they are recording zero or one cases a day each now, whereas for Bangkok it's perfectly OK for there to be no travel restrictions and almost everything to open again when they're recording 10-20 new infections every day? And with the Covid epicentre in Samut Sakhon right on their doorstep too. Madness. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
