The sale of alcohol in public places will be restricted under a Health Ministry draft regulation.

The Health Ministry board, chaired by minister Pradit Sintawanarong, approved the regulation yesterday.

Likely to take effect on Jan 1, 2013, it prohibits the sale of alcoholic drinks on footpaths, in public parks, and in public areas nationwide.

Retail alcohol sales will be permitted only from 11am-2pm and from 5pm-12am except at international airports and at licensed entertainment venues.

Violators of the ban could be jailed for up to six months and/or fined up to 10,000 baht.
