Second is the "entertainment activities permits", which is dedicated for facilities of organizing entertainment events.
Third, the "Entertainment Gate" that includes the specialized services of service providers, while the fourth service is permits for live shows at restaurants and coffee shops, which is related to live entertainment shows that aim at entertainment activities held at restaurants and coffee shops.
