Real test of how safe the 18 discharged infected patient will be to ask anyone from the task force to sit down face to face with them and have a coffee. If the minister dare to do it, then I think we can be assured that they are really safe for the rest of the community. 

Ask ministar no use.  They will say they rely on advice of civil servants.

Ask DMS got use.

There is a bus stop, and the resident at Blk 227A could hear his call for help and could see him from the window. That means that location is not that isolated. 

I'm staying nearby and passes by this area often, the incident happened at the bus stop facing a BTO under construction, while 227A is the nearest blk beside the BTO. If someone shout at such hours sure can hear even if a distance away. It's the end of Punggol field road and both sides flanked with bushes, plants and trees along the street, and the rear and side are empty fields. After 8pm it's relatively empty at this area except maybe some residents alighting at the bus stop and walking back to 227A area.

The resident was staying nearby, most likely he need to access this route towards the waterway PCN. The PCN along punggol waterway can be rather quiet also depending on the timing. Those extreme end facing coney island will need to avoid after 9pm plus. 

True also. Some PCN also quite quiet after certain hours. The PCN near the coney island confirmed quiet as there is no residential there yet, all are still under construction. But sometimes you still can see one or two person fishing around that area at night.

The govt desperately need the banglah FW to continue with the infrastructure projects. It is the rest of us office workers that can WFH that will be confined in the longer term.

In fact can see already that quite a number of employers as far as possible continue to make WFH the norm and prohibit freely coming back to office, following lead of civil and public service.

but the moment they start work, they will come into contact with somebody.  foreman, engineer, other non-FW workers. 

i think it is a crazy task what they are facing, test 300000 workers, move the sick somewhere, move the healthy somewhere else, continue testing the healthy population to ensure no trojan horse, eventually move all of them back to dorms, and find capacity to house them in a way that is not overcrowded.  all this while making sure they are paid, fed, not rioting.  If they manage to execute this according to script, is actually quite commendable. 

and if we do all this, to me we have done right by these foreign workers.

we kenna confinement is because (1) primarily the March returnees were causing a spike in number, and (2) they dont really know how much load the banglas will add to hospital system.

both (1) and (2) now seem not as bad as worse case.

We indeed need those FW to resume all infrastructure projects, if not it would have a great impact on the completion of work. This is why gahment must ensure who are healthy and who are not, and start work for those healthy workers.

I think gahment never enforced office workers that can wfh continue to do so, they just say wfh should remain if possible. Unless they say by law all office workers must wfh if can, if not companies would tio fine.

The virus probably playing dead while waiting for a chance to spring onto a much weaker human host such as the elderly. If got unexplained community spread from now you guys know who to look for...aka lawless wong and mr electric man...

Even more difficult problem, as these workers commute daily. To be realistic, those who want to work here are stuck here for the longer term. There will be a labour shortage for sure.

Not only malaysians, i think there are many prc wp holders as well in the same predicament awaiting clearance to return to SG, but at least these people don't commute.

Our gahment will make ppl responsible for their own actions, like if sick still go to work means fine, jail term and ban from working in sgp. Never adhere to their rules, same... fine, jail term and ban from working. They will not make it their responsibility. No headache at all. Our gahment is not the kum gong kia. They will make the individuals responsible instead of them. Havent enough examples been fine and sent to prison? Or even barred from working in sgp? System already in place. 

Contact tracing will be made compulsory to all businesses all the workers and others can be traced. You all worry for them on how to handle so many working going in/out of sgp?

Same like all other WP holders, need MOM approval prior to entry.

These ppl may not return for a while as we are “unsafe”.
