Sg Gov is very systematic in handling the situation. I feel safe and am glad as a Singaporean.

Very Glad to be in singapore thank you for taking such great actions in mitigating this surreal outbreak - other nations should take example.

[emconsolacion]

Some ASEAN countries are following Singapore steps, good protocol, role model for ASEAN

[LadyLuvGemStones]

Minister Wong press conference got my undivided attention because he promptly answered all questions intellectually .. in comparison to the US "President" that has no idea what he was talking about !

[andrewtang]

I praise Singapore for the measures it has been taking for infection control process on Covid-19. Aloha!

[Shamo-ycvy]

If only all governments took proactive steps like Singapore.

[sanilim]

If Malaysia got it who pay the living and hospital expenditures. 300 thousand daily come to Singapore is a large group of concern here .

[philipchan]

Well done 👍🏽 Sg leaders! But I am quite worry about Malaysians coming to and fro Sg on a daily basis. Many told me that the woodlands checkpoint didn’t conduct temp check/screenings on those travelling on bikes and cars.

Dear Minister Wong Sir, your speech was effective and practical . Personally, we have deliberately missed our flight for departure on (15/03/20) to 1 0f our favourite Asean destination countries knowing that our march holiday plans will surely be ruined with all booked : Hotels rooms reservations, local land tours and overseas restaurant food bookings fully or partially paid. However, We still painstakingly heed your advice representing our nation's responsibilities and importantance. We never regretted our decisions upon this but rather felt more relieved following through abidance and adherence as One United People .

😂 Switzerland

We closed all schools and universities so I guess returners should self quarantine

[janggut]

How about foreign workers expecially from our neighbours coming in n out dailys, what safety measures has been implement for them.

[lingth]

his explanation for restrictions is more detailed and clearer than simply saying ban on all travel on XYZ country, causing confusion.

[treadstone]

At last, this measure will greatly reduce unessential traveling. People will think twice because of the mandatory 14 days stay home.

[shinigamikouryu]

Does this new rules also applied to those who come before this is made effective? If so, it will be hard due to unable to go back to their home country. Or those who come before the new rules are allowed to fly back to their home town without the 14 shn? (Singapore is not exactly cheap! Even with hotel cost, it would blow up)

[bangnoyan]

Many Singaporeans travelling to Batam Indonesia. Now with this travel restriction, all travellers via ferry to Spore Harbourfront will undergo Stay Home Notice 14days too?

[ELee-zvud]

The adult in the room. Singapore is fortunate that the gov. & people are taking a data-based approach to this. It's a shambles in most countries, including mine.
