Groups of people were found to be flouting safe distancing measures after they were spotted gathering at a bus stop in Marsiling for suspected gambling activities, Chinese daily Shin Min Daily News reported.
At around 2pm on Sunday, about 40 men and women were seen gathering in groups around the bus stop near Block 20 Marsiling Lane’s hawker centre, located along Admiralty Road.
Some were sitting and standing by the roadside, while others clustered in groups at an open space in front of the hawker centre, most of them glued to the screens of their mobile phones.
A bus driver, who wanted to be known only as Mr Wang, said the same groups of people have been gathering there since the start of April and would usually stay from noon to 7pm.
Mr Wang said: “It is not the first time they have gathered and flouted safe distancing regulations.
“I have reported the matter to the police twice.
“They shouldn’t gather as it will increase the chances of spreading the virus.”
Shin Min also reported that seven or eight people, including a woman counting notes and collecting money, were gathered at a bench.
