The Amazing Thailand Marathon Bangkok 2021, previously scheduled for March 14, was on Wednesday postponed to June 27 in order to avoid mass participation amid the latest outbreak of Covid-19.
Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) governor Yuthasak Supasorn said the TAT had discussed the event with organisers and health-related agencies and they had agreed to delay it for everyone’s sake.
The organising committee said on Facebook that the new surge in Covid-19 had caused the government to announce several measures, including inter-provincial travel restrictions and a ban on big events with high numbers of participants.
