Singapore
SINGAPORE authorities are aware of plans by several operators of nightlife venues to throw "farewell" parties on Wednesday, and will be deploying enforcement operations over the next two days, the Singapore Police Force, Singapore Tourism Board and Enterprise Singapore said in a joint statement.
News of such events emerged a day after the government announced that from 11.59pm on March 26 until April 30, all bars and entertainment venues must shut while all events - even those with fewer than 250 attendees - are to be suspended, as part of efforts to reduce the risk of seeding new local coronavirus clusters.
