August 31, 20215 yr From Coconuts Bangkok A 2019 file photo of Rongros, a riverside restaurant in Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon district. Photo: Coconuts Bangkok In the latest display of competent policy-crafting, the actual regulations enacted last night contradicted last week’s announcement that vaccinations would be required to eat at restaurants in the 29 hardest-hit provinces, including Bangkok. According to what was made formal last night, those eateries need only cap capacity at 75% or 50% for indoor, air-conditioned venues. What was published in the Royal Gazette made no mention of a vaccination requirement. Responding to the confusion, Suwanchai Wattanayingcharoenchai, director of the Disease Control Department, said that the public should stick with the Royal Gazette’s version for now. Only a small portion of the population is fully vaccinated, and it was never clear Bangkok’s tens of thousands of eateries, large and small, were supposed to police health documents. https://coconuts.co/bangkok/news/surprise-restaurant-vaccination-requirement-dropped-for-now/
August 31, 20215 yr I am excited to eat out again! Such a small thing but a big deal for me. Months of cooking / delivery has made me hungry from food served outside my own dining room.
