Thailand’s Ministry of Labour is set to propose to the Centre for COVID-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) the compensation for nightlife business owners and their employees, after the reopening of nightclubs and entertainment venues was postponed until mid-January.

 

Labour minister Suchart Chomklin will propose the allocation of some money from the social security fund for those affected by the decision, after he met with representatives of musicians, artists, pubs and bars yesterday (Monday), to discuss their problems and ways to ease their suffering.

 

People who have lost their jobs should be compensated with at least 50% of their previous salary. Employees who are still in the social security system, meanwhile, should be compensated for one more month in addition to whatever has previously been paid under the “Rao Rak Kan” government stimulus scheme, launched especially for employees whose employment was affected by COVID-19.

Give them a few thousand baht. Buy one less tank this year. Better yet, let them reopen. Stop the sadism!

Make sure every employee is double vaxed with a suitable vaccine and let the establishment open.

I wonder how many people would the ฿ 2.6m fund for iPhones keep fed for a month?

About a year and a half late.

Hoe much can the market bare or is it bear market?

Most of these businesses have burnt down in Pattaya; the owners are living off the insurance.
