China News Service, May 11 (Xinhua), according to the US "World Daily" report, a few days ago, in Chinatown, Oakland, California, the previously closed restaurants and shops have been opened one after another. According to statistics from Chinatown Chamber of Commerce, 87 restaurants and supermarkets in Chinatown have reopened, accounting for 2/3 of Chinatown's total.
In the Renaissance Center on 9th Street in Huabu, the Jinji Restaurant and the Golden Peony Seafood Chaliao, which were temporarily closed due to the epidemic, have been officially opened and take-out orders are accepted.
Customer Lisa Chen said that she usually goes to Chinatown to buy food and order takeout, especially the "Concubine Yellow Chicken" in Jinji Xiaoguan. However, the restaurant closed down suddenly and couldn't make delicious chicken at home, which made life a lot less fun. Now the restaurant is finally open and I feel very happy.
A number of supermarkets on 7th and 8th streets have also opened normally, but they have also taken measures to limit current. Ms. Feng, the owner of a supermarket on 8th Street, said that she posted a notice in a prominent position in the supermarket to remind everyone to wear a mask and line up to maintain a "social distance" of 6 feet.
According to Jessica Chen, the executive director of the Auckland Chinatown Chamber of Commerce, most supermarkets and grocery stores in Auckland Chinatown have remained open to serve the public since the implementation of the "Home Stay Prevention Policy" in the past six weeks. As California entered the second phase of restart, the number of people in Chinatown began to increase, and the total number of shops that opened in the past week increased more than the previous month.
On the whole, people in Chinatown have a high awareness of epidemic prevention. Almost everyone wears masks, queues in areas such as banks, and pays attention to social distance. "The economy will gradually restart, as long as the protective measures are in place, the risk is not high, and I hope more people will go shopping." She said. (Liu advanced)
