Singapore Goes Into Heightened Alert For COVID-19
Male couriers sort out parcels to be delivered to customer’s doorstep on May 28, 2021 in Singapore. Singapore enters a month long heightened alert from May 16 to June 13 to curb the spread of COVID-19 cases in the local community. New restrictions on movements and activities have been introduced such as limiting social interaction to two, prohibiting dining out and a reduced operating capacity at shopping malls, offices and attractions. Online shopping among Singaporeans are likely to increase after the government directives to allow workers to work from home and to avoid non-essential trips to shopping malls.
