Representatives of Thai Shopping Centre Association (TSCA) and Thai Restaurant Association met with Mr Anutin (centre) on Tuesday to talk about relaxation of lockdown restrictions on restaurant business and new Covid-19 protocols to re-open restaurants. Restaurant operators say they are receptive to Public Health Ministry plans for reopening, which involve tough Covid-19 protocols including a requirement for diners to show vaccination proof. "It is a very good idea to apply the sandbox concept to the restaurant business. Nath Vongphanich, president of Central Restaurants Group, said that the company also approves of the restaurant sandbox idea, since tighter measures will boost consumer confidence when visiting restaurants. "If the sandbox concept is used, we are ready to gradually reopen our restaurants," he said.
