The sale of alcohol during this period is also banned including 7-11 & convenience stores. This ban will be enforced by the army.
Can someone confirm whether true ?
I don't want to travel all the way there and have nowhere to party.

Referendum voting day is on 7th August and all entertainment outlets are supposed to be closed that day..... sale of alcohol is prohibited from 6pm starting 6th August until midnight 8th August.
Exceptions are hotels which are allowed to let their guests drink INSIDE the hotel premises...... guests are not allowed to bring their alcoholic drinks outside the hotel premises.
Bro Beretta..... dun worry about the ban.... just come as per normal.
Although the entertainment outlets are supposed to be closed...... going by past experience many will have their front doors closed and neon signs switched off but inside will be business as usual via the back entrance.
