Thailand is fighting the 3rd wave of Covid-19 infections and is increasing measures. Several provinces including Bangkok and Chonburi (Pattaya) have been labeled as “Maximum and Strict Controlled Areas”. While there still is no lockdown almost everything is closed and any kind of activity that involves gathering of people is forbidden.
Wearing a face mask is now madatory in all Thailand provinces and notg doing so will be fined with 6.000 to 20.000 THB (Thai Baht). Malls need to close at 9.00 PM and all other stores at 11.00 PM the latest. Restaurants are being closed now and only take away / delivery is allowed but just until 9.00 PM. All previous restrictions that started almost 4 weeks ago that included the closing of all entertainment and nightlife venues – including bars, nightclubs, go-go bars and discos – are still in place of course. Let’s hope it helps to flatten the curve fast!
