[Asia Economy Reporter Park Byung-hee] The Dutch government will extend the lockdown measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19 until the 3rd of next month.
On the 8th (local time), the Dutch government announced that it decided to extend the lockdown measures, citing a rapid increase in confirmed cases due to a new variant of the virus.
The Dutch government has been enforcing lockdown measures since December 15 last year, prohibiting the operation of all stores except for food and essential goods stores.
