Bangkok Business News reported on a press conference in Nakhon Ratchasima yesterday in which it was announced that some alcohol restrictions would soon be eased. 

 

Deputy governor Chusak Chunkoh and health officials said there were just 77 new cases of Covid-19 and two deaths.

 

It has been decided to permit seven tourism related districts to allow restaurants that have SHA accreditation to serve alcohol up to 10 pm. 

 

The pilot measures will come in shortly when they are signed off by the governor.

 

The districts are: Muang, Pak Chong, Chalerm Prakiat, Chokechai, Sikhio, Wang Nam Khiaw and Phimai. 

 

The authorities reminded everyone that pubs, bars, nightclubs, karaoke and massage establishments all remain shut throughout Nakhon Ratchasima, also known as Korat.

How come I still see the other forum gloomsters commenting that Thailand's 'highway carnage' is still as bad as it ever was regardless of Covid?

 

You guys using the same hymn book or what?

So places like Korat can sell alcohol but place like Pattaye can not? and the rational behind that are like what? isn't the country and the same people? so people who drink alcohol in Korat will get infected and those in Pattaya will?.. God, help me understand how their brains works...

I live in Korat, in Pak Thong Chai, but that's not on their list, so I can have a few beers with my dinner in Wang Nam Khiaw or in Korat city, but get refused 30km down the road in Pak Thong Chai.

There only 1 decent restaurant near us they never stopped either, but there are a couple of nice restaurants in Pak Thong Chai town we used to go to and they are all dry now. But it's no great issue for me as I'm happy drinking at home and watching a movie. ????
