Nightlife Workers Protest Financial Assistance Due To Coronavirus Disease

A nightlife worker activist from the Empower Foundation poses during a protest for financial assistance due to coronavirus disease (COVID-19) nightlife workplace closures imposed by the government, outside the Government House in Bangkok, Thailand on June 29, 2021. Nightlife workers carried symbolic high heels and bikinis to Government House on Tuesday morning, asking for monthly handouts since the government has closed their workplaces to control Covid-19. Their representatives said that bars, karaoke shops and massage parlours had been closed since early last year, and the government had ignored their requests for financial assistance now they do not have jobs. They asked for a government hand out of 5,000 baht a month each until their workplaces reopen. They said they had the right to financial assistance because they were taxpayers.The government has decided to close off infectious and high-risk areas including construction worker camps in the Greater Bangkok area and four southern border provinces for 30 days starting on Monday.
