Restaurants and bars get extra hour of operations while registration of voters is expected to be easier

Tamar Kahn and Katharine ChildPresident Cyril Ramaphosa updates SA on developments in the country’s response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Picture: GCISAs SA emerges from its deadly third wave of coronavirus infections, President Cyril Ramaphosa has eased key restrictions on alcohol sales and the size of gatherings, offering a lifeline to businesses and making it easier to register voters ahead of local government elections in November.

Ramaphosa said:"In exactly 50 days’ time, South Africans will go to the polls in the local government elections. It is vital that as we undertake this great democratic exercise, we do everything within our means to prevent a resurgence of Covid-19 infections." Cinema chain Ster-Kinekor, which is also in business rescue, said to creditors the 50-person per show restriction had slowed its return to profitability.

The alcohol industry last week said that restrictions allowing the sale of liquor between Monday and Thursday only were placing a severe strain on independent bottle stores, which were losing at least 50% of revenue. Wendy Alberts, CEO of the Restaurant Association of SA , last week said a lack of government relief meant staff were unemployed:"Our restaurants are dying. We simply cannot continue to survive without our full dinner service offering."

The best choice I've made this year was investing in cryptocurrency and forex trading and earning from home. With the help of TonishKevin I've been earning R25k weekly I've never regretted this decision. 🙏
