Restaurant operators are calling on the government to consult with them before deciding on new restrictions that affect their businesses.
They said inconsistent government measures have made it difficult for restaurants to operate.
In July, the government announced tighter restrictions because of surging Covid infections, banning dine-in services at restaurants in malls in dark red zones.
Shopping malls, department stores and community malls are forced to close, except for supermarkets, pharmacies and vaccination stations within their walls.

Restaurant operators and food vendors are irritated with the new round of tight lockdown measures and travel curbs, saying it will further impact their businesses.
Atchara Burarak, the owner of Iberry Group, the operator of the Iberry restaurant chain, said she agrees with the idea of containing infections, but questioned the efficacy of the fresh measures. With the new restrictions, we are considering temporarily closing 5-6 restaurants located on the high floors of malls as it is hard to entirely shift to delivery services, she said.
