Prime Minister Lee noted that all industries must be kept intact, ready to resume business when conditions allow.

Singapore implemented its strict circuit breaker measures on April 7 and is scheduled to end on June 1. Other sectors will have to wait, especially those which attract crowds, or involve close contact with other people, such as entertainment outlets and large-scale sporting events. Lee acknowledged that the pandemic has taken a heavy toll on the global economy as the International Monetary Fund projects the steepest decline of global Gross Domestic Product since the Great Depression in the 1930s.

Updating on the Covid-19 situation, Lee said: “In Singapore, it is nearly a month since we imposed our circuit breaker. We are now down to about 10-15 new community cases daily. We have made significant progress, but we have more to do.”
