You risk a S$300 fine and could be charged in court if you repeatedly flout safe-distancing rules COVID19

SINGAPORE: People who repeatedly flout the stricter safe-distancing measures as part of a “circuit breaker” to curb the spread of COVID-19 will face a fine or be charged in court.

The Government will be “stepping up on enforcement” of the measures, Minister for the Environment and Water Resources Masagos Zulkifli wrote on Facebook on Thursday . “If your loved ones do not understand how serious this is, please try hard to help them understand,” he added. "But there are still new cases in the wider community. So it is very critical that each and every one of us observes the stricter safe distancing measures," Mr Heng said.

“Some are even uncooperative, insisting on dining in at eating places, not maintaining a safe distance when queuing in markets, and gathering in parks to eat or exercise together,” he added. Crowd management measures will be expanded to cover around half of all markets in Singapore by Friday to control the spread of COVID-19, the National Environment Agency said in a news release on Wednesday.
