What does this mean?

Well, things will pretty much remain the same as they are now until the beginning of the Holy Month of Ramadan, meaning:

  1. The capacity of indoor-seated venues including cinemas, entertainment, and sports venues to remain at 50% capacity
  2. Shopping malls, hotel establishments, and swimming pools, and private beaches in hotels will stay operating at 70% capacity
  3. Restaurants and cafes will continue to close by 1 am

and last but not least, intensified monitoring efforts and inspection campaigns will take place and tough penalties will be imposed for safety protocol violations.

In February, the new measures were put in place following several violations that resulted in increasing numbers of COVID-positive cases

It was then that the authorities announced not only the measures to ensure the safety of residents.
