Public Forum in Phuket Receives Unanimous Approval for Extending Nightlife Venue Operating Hours
Over 800 individuals gathered at a public forum in Phuket to discuss the extension of nightlife venue operating hours to 4am in designated zones. The proposal received unanimous approval, reflecting a collective inclination towards longer nightlife hours. The forum is part of a broader initiative mandated by the national government to trial the 4am zones in four popular tourist locales across the nation. Local authorities will need to submit proposals for extending service hours to 4am in specific areas if the initiative has public backing.
