It all depends on where the checkpoints are staged. Not exactly at the boundaryline. You are free to move around during the day within the sub-district you are in. Most sub-districts are big enough to have supermarkets, markets, etc for the residents to buy groceries. The only concern is how regularly are the shelves replenished.

Kopitiam Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 For those who needs specialised medication, I hope you have enough supply to last a month or two. Otherwise go get some before the whole island (sub-district wise) is lockdown starting next Monday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalong circle Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 After talking with the people from local administration who stay at the check point in front of Lotus in Wiset road, il seems that from monday, road will be closed at Chalong Circle (as will be underpass). People living in Rawai can go to Supercheap, post office, Lotus, Makro in this area but not to villa market, other side of the circle. People from Chalong will not have access to these shops. Soi Suksan 1 will be closed at the junction with Patak road. Wait and see... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karon is a true subdistrict (tambon), Kata is not. Kata is a village contained in the Karon subdistrict, generally the south and south east portions of the Karon subdistrict. There should be no checkpoints between Karon and Kata as they are both in the same Karon subdistrict. It's already been pointed out that the Karon municipal building is in Kata. That's true. There is no Kata municipal building, the Karon one serves that function for the reasons given previously. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Rawai I can not go on the backroad to Kata, blocked off. I can reach Chalong without problems, but AFAIK the road between Kata and Chalong is blocked.

Went from Rawai to Villa market, no police. However on the way back, police set up at the circle pulling over foreigners on bikes, letting Thais go through. Last minute tea money. Same thing happening up around Tesco/Makro, they were only looking for foreigners on motorbikes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong PR. The lockdown for the sub districts in the thread title have been in effect for some days, albeit sporadically. Yes, the 'all sub districts' starts Monday.

Chalong circle Posted April 11, 2020 Share Posted April 11, 2020 From the first page of the thread : The gist of the order appears to be the following: "From tomorrow 6 April 2020 until further notice, Karon and Rawai Sub-districts are going to be locked down. Nobody will be allowed to get in or out, except essential logistics." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalong circle Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Wonder how they go to lockdown Patak Road from Chalong circle. The left side (7/11, Shell station) is in Rawai, the right side in Chalong. Same for the street who goes to Chalong Pier. No crossing of the street ?
