Alcohol ban in Phuket from midnight

By THE NATION

 

 

The Phuket provincial authority has curbed the opening hours of entertainment venues until midnight, from January 12 to 20, in order to control the Covid-19 situation in the province.

 

Issued on Monday, the order also prohibits diners from consuming alcoholic beverages in restaurants and at food stalls after midnight.

 

The Centre for Covid-19 Situation Administration on Tuesday confirmed three cases in Phuket after the second wave in December.

Read again, it says no alcohol served after midnight. This a far cry from a serious alcohol ban

 

Thought that entertainment places had to close at midnight anyway

Yet another misleading headline!

[cyril sneer 3,495]

must be more cases than 3 if they go to the lengths of an alcohol ban

 

it's like these businesses doing a random deep clean instead of reporting a case found there

By Design!

There is a significant difference between an alchohol ban "from" midnight, to one "after" midnight.

My first thought was that it was a ban, not a timing issue and thought "here we go!, every Governor will follow suit like dominoes."

It appears an emergency stock up is not yet necessary.

It must be a clever virus, it only spreads after midnight.

The Cinderella approach.. after midnight it gets messy?

Here in Chiang Mai all bars closed until 31st Jan (at this stage) and alcohol not allowed to be served in restaurants at any time.

Who cares, is alcohol that important. Really?

I understand there has been an alcohol ban in place in Samui for a week now but have not seen any official explanation relating to it ? I believe take away drink is OK but no "onsite" drinking permitted.

Anyone can confirm ?
