    DETAILS of the economic sectors or businesses involved in the first step of Singapore's post-circuit breaker re-opening will be shared next week, with many of these likely to be "more essential services", said Health Minister Gan Kim Yong at a Tuesday press conference by the Multi-Ministry Taskforce (MTF) on Covid-19.

    He reiterated that even as the country nears the end of circuit breaker measures on June 1, not everything will re-open at once.
