Singapore Phase 3: Nightlife venues unlikely to open though pilot trials may be held, says minister

Wednesday, 21 Oct 2020 07:57 AM MYT

But the authorities are prepared to consider pilot trials in some of these settings, which it has deemed “higher-risk” of spreading Covid-19, to explore how the industry can resume safely. “These are some of the ideas we have, but we will be discussing this with the nightlife industry,” Wong said, who is co-chair of the multi-ministry task force handling Singapore’s response to Covid-19, at a virtual press briefing.

Even after the pilot trials start, the nightlife industry has to be prepared for “quite a long period of restrictions being in place,” Wong said. The Singapore Tourism Board announced on October 8 that two cruise lines had been given the green light to offer such round-trips with no ports of call from November.

Although this example was not cited at the briefing, in South Korea, more than 200 Covid-19 cases were linked to a nightclub cluster in the entertainment district of Itaewon in the capital Seoul after it reopened its bars and nightclubs in late April.
