Some movie theaters in Bandung, West Java, have reopened for business as of Friday.
Edward Parlindungan, head of the Bandung Tourism Agency, said that the reopening was based on Mayoral Regulation No. 46/2020 on COVID-19 handling protocols.
“Based on Mayoral Regulation No. 46/2020, movie theaters are now allowed to operate, starting today. The circular regarding that matter has been released and [cinema owners] have received it,” said Edward on Friday, as reported by kompas.com.
South Korean cinema chain CGV is the only movie theater company that has resumed operations.
Edward said that other cinema owners had found it difficult to find movies during pandemic.
Therefore, despite the new regulation, they did not have any films to screen.
Edward also reminded cinema owners to comply with the “3M” health protocols: mask wearing, hand washing and social distancing.
