Popular Post dcsw53 Posted June 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2021 Huge leap forwards. Restaurants can stay open for 2 more hours and have up to 50 people. That will have the populace stampeding to enjoy the new freedom. 6 1 31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least ridicolous for the wide parts of the country without alarming infections or crowded hospitals. Up here the open street market in the village, Tue and Fri, 6 AM to 8 AM is closed since weeks. At the same time every 7/11, Lotus etc. can do business as usual. Makes me sick to see how the poorest are hit by brainless/pointless measures. Only highlight: primary school open since Monday. 40 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DaLa Posted June 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) This zoning and the restrictions that apply to a particular zone will rekindle memories of times long gone. I lived in a city where the licensing hours finished at 10:30 pm. At which point there was a mad scramble out of the car park as 20 cars from every pub in the city raced to the nearest Derbyshire pub where the licensing hours finished at 11 o'clock. Then , just like today , there were the 'lock ins'. Extra thought to add; the various UK governments have made a pretty good job of closing thousands of pubs in the past few decades, perhaps someone is trying to take a leaf out of their book.

I remember those times well. I wish I had a tenner for all the lock ins that I was at during my younger days. The Breweries also had a huge input on the Pub closures, as it was more profitable to have the land on which the pub stood, as an asset for sale to developers. Was in a Pub in Ireland years ago. Went into Post a Letter. ' Is the Pub open Yet " I asked. " No " was the reply, " but would you like a pint while you wait " Loved those Irish Pubs and people.

Popular Post ikke1959 Posted June 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2021 Thai logical.... no vaccinations and few cases everything under strict control. Now easy the rules, with more infections, but with low quality vaccines. in 120 days full reopen the country for tourists with maybe 25% vaccinated people and a lot of Delta cases.... who understands?? 9 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ThailandRyan Posted June 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2021 So conceivably one could travel from Dark red zone to Dark red zone with no worries and no restrictions other than what the CCSA has put in place. Good to know that travel is back on, well within parameters and safety concerns addressed, like wearing a mask while driving. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post brommers Posted June 18, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 18, 2021 We will not be opening our restaurant until 11pm because even now there are so few customers that it simply is not worth the extra costs. Dining out is a social event and that means alcohol for most people. Until all such restrictions are eased we cannot trade normally. Our bar will not open when bars are allowed because it is tourism reliant and until there are significant numbers of visitors it is simply unaffordable to open. So 18 staff will remain unemployed for many months to come. 16 1 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Dark Red to Yellow without any restrictions doesn't make any sense whatsoever. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoop1130 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 CCSA reduces count of Dark Red Zones to only 4 provinces BANGKOK (NNT) - The Center for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) has whittled down the list of Dark Red Zones to only four provinces and is to allow dining at restaurants until 11pm from June 21. CCSA Spokesperson Dr. Taweesilp Wisanuyothin advised the community today that the latest meeting of the center decided to leave only four provinces listed as Dark Red Zones in need of maximum control. The four are Bangkok, Nonthaburi, Pathumthani and Samut Prakan. Eleven provinces are now considered Red Zones, namely : Chachoengsao, Chonburi, Trang, Nakhon Pathom, Pattani, Petchaburi, Songkla, Samut Sakhon, Saraburi, Yala and Narathiwat. The nine Orange Zones are Chantaburi, Nakhon Si Thammarat, Prachuapkirikhan, Ayuthaya, Ranong, Rayong, Ratchaburi, Sa Kaeo and Samut Songkram. The other 53 provinces are considered Yellow Zones where a high level of caution is still to be maintained. In Dark Red zones, gatherings of over 50 people, restaurants open past 11pm and over 50 percent capacity in air-conditioned venues will remain barred. Outdoor sports will be allowed but department stores will continue to have to shut by 9pm and educational locations will not be allowed to open. For Red zones, gatherings are restricted to 100 people, restaurants may open until 11pm, department stores and retail spaces may operate normally and educational institutions may request authorization to welcome students. Orange zones may not allow gatherings beyond 150 people but all other operations may continue as per usual. The cap on gatherings is 200 people in Yellow zones. All zones are to maintain a ban on the sale and consumption of alcohol in public venues. -- © Copyright NNT 2021-06-18 - Whatever you're going through, the Samaritans are here for you - Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking COVID-19 updates 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dialemco Posted June 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 19, 2021 The only way to justify any relaxing of restrictions or opening for Tourism International or Domestic is to wait until vaccination of Nation completed especially now the Indian variate is circulating the most infectious variant so far. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
