The government has decided to extend the circuit breaker for four more weeks till June 1, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced today (April 21).
This is to keep everyone in Singapore safe, he said after consulting with the multi-ministry task force.
This is on top of further tightening of current breaker measures until May 4.
He asked Singaporeans to stay at home and only go out for essential needs such as buying food or necessities, and only one person from each household should be out at a time.
Access to hotspots such as wet markets will be tightened to ensure sufficient safe distancing.
The authorities will also close more workplace premises to minimise contact among the workers. Only shops, supermarkets, factories and others which are providing the most essential services will remain open.
“The government understands the impact of these decisions on businesses and workers. Thus, the support measures announced earlier will be extended.”
“However, if you are sick and pass the virus to others, it becomes everyone’s problem.”
