Nguyen Quyet Thang, party secretary of Cu Chi District, said that markets may be reopened in some local communes located in green zones. Around one week later, a number of enterprises in these communes would be allowed to operate again. He, however, added that all workers at these enterprises would be required to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19.
After September 15, Cu Chi District would co-operate with the HCM City Department of Tourism to launch some tours to Cu Chi Tunnel, Ben Duoc Temple and some farming areas. But, all visitors have to ensure to be provided with two shots of Covid-19 vaccine.
To date, 99.8 percent of people aged from 18 in Cu Chi have been given their first shot of Covid-19, while 27 percent have received their second shot.
Thang noted that the locality is speeding up Covid-19 vaccination for tens of thousands of workers at industrial parks.
Can Gio District will pilot the resumption of markets between September 15-30, along with outdoor entertainment services, and food outlets serving less than 20 people.
The district has also given a go-ahead for a small tour of the area from September 30.
By October 30, the district is expected to finish Covid-19 vaccinations for all local residents aged from 18. After this time, more activities will be considered for being loosened.
District 7 will prioritise the resumption of trading in essential products and street businesses.
Vo Khac Thai, party secretary of District 7, said that the locality had drafted specific criteria for granting green cards for different activities.
