14h00. This protest has been organised by the Restaurant Association of South Africa (RASA), with its \u2018<i>1 Million Seats on the Streets<\/i>\u2019 campaign slogan, and a hashtag #jobssavelives. Restaurants have been advised to obtain permission from their local police stations, which from what I have seen and heard is not being granted easily. Restaurant owners have been photographed with posters enumerating the number of staff they have, who with their families depend on their jobs for their livelihoods. These have been posted on Social Media, and sent to journalists as well as to the most senior politicians in our country.<\/p>\n<p>Wendy Alberts from the RASA wrote to restaurants about the protest action tomorrow: \u2018<i>We remind everyone that we want to win the hearts and support of our patrons and communities and that it\u2019s a peaceful,protest and most importantly to stay safe and operate in the confines of the law. As much as we want to get our voices heard we need to do it with respect and dignity. We want to talk to the hearts and minds of people and not make people\u2019s days any harder. We want to tell President Ramaphosa of our hardships and how diversified and colourful our industry is and the broader impact in the country and what we need to save our restaurants. We need to create impact not chaos. The protest is about saving jobs, lives,\u00a0livelihoods, businesses, restaurants\u2019.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p>RASA attorneys Mooney Ford addressed a letter to President Ramaphosa yesterday, requesting that the alcohol sales ban be revised for restaurants, reminding the President that he had announced a differentiated approach to deal with the areas that have higher levels of Corina infections, so-called <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-207073\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.chrisvonulmenstein.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/DB2E5356-353F-4C98-B13C-0C047927C203.jpeg?resize=300%2C212&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"212\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.chrisvonulmenstein.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/DB2E5356-353F-4C98-B13C-0C047927C203.jpeg?resize=300%2C212&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.chrisvonulmenstein.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/DB2E5356-353F-4C98-B13C-0C047927C203.jpeg?resize=600%2C425&amp;ssl=1 600w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.chrisvonulmenstein.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/DB2E5356-353F-4C98-B13C-0C047927C203.jpeg?resize=200%2C142&amp;ssl=1 200w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.chrisvonulmenstein.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/DB2E5356-353F-4C98-B13C-0C047927C203.jpeg?w=658&amp;ssl=1 658w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/>hotspots. It was requested that the restaurants holding a valid liquor licence be allowed to sell alcohol, excluding those located in hotspot areas. Furthermore, selling alcohol by restaurants would have to be accompanied by a food order, to prevent restaurants from turning into bars. A maximum of two drinks per meal should be allowed, and a zero legal drink-driving limit should be set during Lockdown.
