Learning and science centres for education, science parks and galleries. Public, private and community libraries. Eateries can stay open up to 11pm, but cannot serve alcohol on the premises. Eateries with air conditioning may only occupy up to 50% of the seating capacity. Sports stadia, outdoor or indoor exercise grounds with good air circulation may stay open to 9pm. Competitive events are allowed, but without spectators. Convenience stores and supermarkets may resume normal operations.

A friend who had a workout center told me "gym" was a Thai slang word for a person's privates. Lazy me never followed up to see if correct or not, but could see a farang getting in trouble with Thai GF if he tells her "Honey I'm off to the gym to work off some calories" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither are the open-air areas in many local parks with machines for fitness, which have also been so stupidly closed (but widely used by locals nonetheless, to their credit).

Pool at my building has opened today but on a "1 in- 1 out" basis, with slots being booked through the office. Gym (Indoor) remains closed.
