On January 30th Chonburi's Provincial Communicable Disease Committee announced that restaurants, pubs and bars can resume operations on February 1st. However, they must comply with the preventive measures of the Ministry of Health. Under the new regulations, restaurants, pubs, bars and karaoke shops will be allowed to stay open until 23:00. Liquors can be sold and served. Convenience stores must close between 23:00 and 05:00. Musical performances are allowed, but dancing is prohibited. Massage parlors may reopen with limited customers. Exercise venues (eg. fitness clubs) and boxing stadiums can operate and organise competitions with crowd control measures. Whether A-Go-Go clubs will be allowed to open their doors remains unclear, although the ladies' exercises on the poles can hardly be called dance performances in most places. Keep in mind that everyone must continue to practise social distancing and wear face masks.

As a result of the outbreak of Covid-19 disease in Samut Sakhon and Rayong, Chonburi Governor Pakarathorn Thienchai announced on December 30th, 2020, that both Banglamung and Pattaya must enter heavily controlled status. This means the closure of all non-essential shops, bars, dancings, nightclubs, karaoke clubs, malls, etc. Restaurants are restricted to takeout and delivery only. On December 31st, the obviously overburdened governor from Chonburi suddenly decided that restaurants could serve guests and resume serving alcoholic beverages with immediate effect. On January 4th, 2021, Chonburi's governor published "improved" regulations: Now restaurants can serve customers with food, but without alcoholic drinks, from 06:00 to 21:00. After 21:00, venues can only sell takeaway food (but including alcoholic beverages). Under the new rules, department stores can remain open, including all retail outlets. It shows again that the country's leaders speak before they use their brains.
