snoop1130 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 PHOTO: Post Today The Center for Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) is planning to discuss the gradual reopening of cinemas and entertainment venues at a major general meeting next Monday, September 27th. CCSA assistant spokesperson Apisamai Srirangsan said today, September 20th, that the CCSA general meeting will be discussing several matters as proposed by the Public Health Ministry, including the reopening of movie theaters and entertainment venues like bars, nightlife, live music venues, theaters, and more. However, the assistant spokesperson stressed that if approved, the reopening would be done in gradual, stable, and safe ways as possible and each province and area may apply in a different timeframe, depending on whether they are ready or not. Unlike prior openings last year and in January, it would not likely be an opening of the entire entertainment sector at once but likely in staggered, safe steps.

Kadilo Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 “As vaccination rates increase, however, and the released numbers from the CCSA in terms of cases of Covid-19 and especially deaths lower, talk has begun for the first time in six months around reopening the shuttered entertainment industry, which is especially important to the economy of Pattaya. This also comes as Pattaya city leaders have tentatively announced planning events for November and December in hopes that the highly accelerated vaccination campaign will be at a level to allow the city to fully open and return to somewhat normality.” No mention of what the vaccination level is that will allow the city to fully open. If they are planning events for November it’s unlikely, if not impossible that they will be at 70% fully vaccinated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherrytreeview Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Different day, different nonsense spouted by Thai civil servants. Entertainment venues are the last places that will open. They will be closing again within a few weeks of opening anyway. A few covid cases traced to Nana Plaza, Soi Cowboy, LK Metro or Walking Street and the neon signs outside will be turned off again. The new normal doesn't have 'entertainment venues' in its charter. 12 minutes ago, Kadilo said: “As vaccination rates increase, however, and the released numbers from the CCSA in terms of cases of Covid-19 and especially deaths lower, talk has begun for the first time in six months around reopening the shuttered entertainment industry, which is especially important to the economy of Pattaya.

Best in my opinion to stop with the predictions that lead to false hopes and wait for official announcements with the full details published and that will not happen until conditions are right, ie vaccinations are to the level required. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True. But quite a few were surprised when restaurants, massage places and malls reopened earlier than expected. I do think there's a likelihood of further openings next month. Let's see - and stay optimistic! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's see - and stay optimistic! Next month I agree, there is likely to be further openings due to vaccination levels but not likely for international tourism was my point.
