Chonburi masseuses back in business as outbreak eases

The move came after massage therapists protested at Chonburi’s city hall on Monday, calling on authorities to lift the longstanding closure order on their workplaces.

Chonburi authorities proposed the issue to the government, and on Wednesday cancelled the order covering massage parlours and spas. Also permitted to reopen from Wednesday are hair salons, beauty clinics, and tattoo/piercing shops.
