A sign that Singapore may be turning the corner with regards to Covid-19: Singapore will simplify its safe management measures from next Tuesday (March 15) onwards.

This move to simplify and streamline the procedures, which was announced earlier but deferred due to a surge in cases, will cover five areas: group sizes, mask wearing, workplace rules, safe distancing and capacity limits.

These parameters will be tightened or relaxed across the board should there be any changes. Other restrictions - such as the blocking-off of public seating areas - will be lifted, given that they do not have a big impact on the virus' spread.

Announcing the new date on Friday (March 11), Trade and Industry Minister Gan Kim Yong stressed that the changes do not represent a broader easing of rules. Rather, they are meant to make the rules easier for businesses and individuals to understand, and encourage a greater sense of personal responsibility, he said.
