The COVID19 has affected every business in every industry (1)

However, in my opinion, we, as the entertainment industries and the music industry, feel disregarded by the fact that the government give no support towards these industries and more importantly - the business owners (No allowances or fund provided) (2)

Music labels have been out of business, laid off contract musicians ...Pubs, bars, nightclubs, music venues have to shut down without any schemes, funds, support from the government or allowances to help the businesses and employees. First to shut down and last to be noticed. (3)

On the 24th May 2020, the representatives from the entertainment businesses and music businesses have gathered up for a meeting in regards to the consequences of COVID-19 towards the businesses; how to cope and adapt through the crisis. (4)

Moreover, to discuss the further plans, practise guidelines, and strategies, proposing to the government to ease the lockdown for the future of entertainment businesses. (5)

Musicians, gurus, event organisers, lighting and sound engineers, pub owners, bar owners, nightclub owners, concert promoters, television, radio, and deejays were invited in this event.

I hope that this meeting creates movements and raise the awareness within creative industries in Thailand, especially in entertainment business and music business (7)
