Restaurants around the country partook in the 1 Million Seats protest... but will it do any good?

According to the CEO of RASA Wendy Alberts, The Minister of Tourism has agreed to meet with the association where businessman Vusi Thembekwayo will address the minister to hand over a memorandum from RASA, the Taverners Association, and the Independent Liquor Association.

“The protest action may help but I doubt it. Without alcohol sales the industry is doomed to failure. Patrons go to restaurants and pubs for the experience and not necessarily just for the food.” “It would be extremely helpful to have the extra income. For those that are reliant, the liquor ban has been devastating and it needs to be addressed. That said, running fewer hours obviously impacts our income.”
