Life is never fair, especially in a capitalist world.

i don’t begrudge rich or successful people. They must have done something right or have taken big risks to get to where they are today so let’s give credit to that.

i just ask that they give back to society in more ways (though they don’t have to) and be less conspicuous in showing off. 

Yes, you are right,  but it seems to me  that society is giving them even more now by using taxpayers money to clean up the mess?

not pouring cold water but singapore is more crowded especially in the dorms. And do we know how many tests are carried out daily, is it random or only when someone sees the doctor?

Also, are MCO and CB measures the same?  In CB, still have a certain portion of people going out for non-essential activities.  Dunno about MCO 

Mco depends on state.. They only allow certain timing for people to shop for groceries and only 1 person can go out shop.. So definitely Malaysia MCO is a lot more strict then our circuit breaker.. P

Yesterday government already said.. They will be aggressive testing FW for covid-19.. . About 5k of them will get tested in next few days.. Majority of them perhaps kanna tested positive due to government to aggressively test them..

 

If majority are kanna confirmed because of the government aggressively test them.. Then it clearly means a lot of them tio infected and perhaps had been with them for many days or even weeks.. Because many are not serious type.. Maybe mild flu or no symptoms at all.. If not these people would never get tested if not for government aggressively test them for covid-19.. That is if the majority of them are linked to aggressively testing.. 

need to and good to test aggressively otherwise asymptomatic workers will be going to their workplaces (such as mine 😞) and transmit to other essential workers who could not wfh

404 are linked to dormitories.. So yeah.. It could be the aggressive testing for FW in dormitories that push up the figure a lot higher.. So maybe expect to be few hundreds maybe 400plus, 500plus or even 600 plus new cases for next few days.. With majority linked to dormitories.. 

 On side note... Really Heng that only 43 today are not linked to dormitories.. At least the situation still can be controllable.. Just pray hard that outside of dormitory case do not go over few hundreds case per day and we should be able to control the situation. If the number exceed few hundreds per day that is outside dormitories.. Then we are really going to be like usa, UK lao.. That would be a very sad case..

Case 3381, an 80 year-old male Malaysian national, has passed away on 14 April from causes not related to COVID-19 infection. Under MOH’s enhanced surveillance, he had been tested for COVID-19 after his demise, and his test result came back positive.

Ya.. Hopefully the aggressive testing can speperate out those who got infected with covid-19 as early as possible to reduce the spread.. Actually 5k testing in a few days I feel is not enough based on how many FW in dormitories.. 5k in a few days.. How many days then can complete the testing for all the dormitories FW? FW got 200k? divide by 5k = 40.. 40 x 4 = need 160 days to complete testing for all FW? That would be a very long duration..

3 of the 4 news clusters are linked to dormitories.. Look like more dormitories are going to be listed as isolation area lao.. The isolation area is getting bigger and bigger..

This scenario would also lead to high rates of hospitalization and need for critical care, straining health service capacity past the breaking point.
