PHUKET: Key tourism figures have welcomed the move to allow alcohol to be served and consumed in restaurants across the island, and to allow live music to be performed in venues, saying the easing of the restriction removes one of the barriers preventing tourists from coming to Phuket.

 

They also look to the measure, which came into effect last Friday (Oct 1) as a stepping stone towards allowing pubs and bars across the island to reopen.

 

Thanusak Phungdet, President of the Phuket Chamber of Commerce noted that the move to allow alcohol to be sold, even though only until 10pm, came after long-standing pressure from Phuket’s business community.

When I reported here about Bangla open for business in this way 1Oct, all the “ experts” here slammed me as that was “ illegal “ and Police “ didnt know” and to “ read Governor Notice properly”. No, it wasnt / Yes they did./ Already Read & Understood.

Then told by friends that Bangla was “closed by Police” for three days” (2-4 Oct).

Why would it have been then ? Confusion all round again harming tourist businesses.
