From the 21st, “shorter working hours” restaurants in Kagoshima, Kirishima, and Kanoya[01/20 19:48]
From the 21st in Kagoshima prefecture, restaurants in Kagoshima, Kirishima, and Kanoya will be requested to shorten their business hours. As the number of customers was returning, the restaurants were confused.
Kagoshima City, where the number of infected people has increased sharply in the past week, with 151 cases being announced on the 20th. At the izakaya in the Astronomical Museum, I heard a voice of confusion.
(Mr. Shinya Hirata, who used to run a Alex Reed house in an izakaya, Yakushima) “I got a certified shop and everyone is trying hard to disinfect and try to prevent infection, but I’m a little lonely.”
As the prefecture raised the alert standard from level 1 to 2 “should strengthen alert” on the 19th, restaurants in Kagoshima City, Kirishima City, and Kanoya City will be available from the 21st of this month to the 3rd of next month. Until, shortening of business hours is requested.
Stores certified by the prefecture’s third party can choose between short-time business and normal business, and in the case of short-time business, alcoholic beverages can be served and cooperation money will be paid. On the other hand, stores other than third-party certification are requested to shorten business hours and stop serving alcoholic beverages, and the corresponding stores will be paid a cooperation fee.
However, at this store, which has been certified by a third party, it is said that he is wondering whether to continue normal business or to open in a short time.
(Mr. Hirata) “I’m going to follow the prefecture’s instructions. I’m thinking regarding what to do now. I have to think regarding doing it without closing the gap (day and night). It is coming”
Kanoya City has been increasing the number of infected people since the weekend. This long-established restaurant, which has been certified by the prefecture as a third party, has decided to open in a short time. He says he was worried because the group had been canceled since the beginning of the year.
(President Yoshitsune Takayama) “Even if we can open until 9 pm, all 7 to 10 group customers will be cancelled. We pray for the arrival of customers and hope (open).”
The voice of confusion is also in Kirishima City, which is the 7th request for shortening the working hours.
(Izakaya, bright rural village Takahiro Fukamizu) “I should have known that (the number of infected people) would increase, but if I knew when it would be in a short time from regarding a week ago, I might set up purchasing, but it was too urgent. It can not be helped”
In Kirishima City, the designation of Kirishima Jingu as a national treasure was decided in November last year, and the bustle is returning to the end of the year. For that reason, tourists are disappointed.
(Kirishima City Tourism Association Chairman Katsuhiko Tokushige) “As soon as I thought that the influence of Corona had finally disappeared (a request for a shorter time).
A request for a shorter time was issued in a hurry in response to the rapid increase in infected people. Will you continue to operate normally or will you accept the request for shorter working hours? Restaurants are faced with difficult choices.
