SINGAPORE - It is important for Singaporeans to be responsible and use common sense when it comes to mask-wearing, said Health Minister Ong Ye Kung on Wednesday .
"These days, rules are just rules," he said in an interview with radio station One FM 91.3."You have to obey the rules. But you have to exercise a lot of self-responsibility and understand mask up when you're indoors - it's because ventilation is not as good."such as malls, lifts, public transport and hawker centres. They are optional outdoors, including in sheltered areas such as void decks and bus stops.
This logic also applies to settings such as children's playgrounds, he added. If parents find that a playground is too crowded for their comfort, they can simply take their children somewhere else. The minister spoke to two SPH Media Trust radio stations - Kiss92 FM and One FM 91.3 - in separate interviews on Wednesday morning, where he answered questions on Singapore's reopening plans.
"But there may come a day when cases are low, hospitals are in good shape, and we may say: 'OK we don't need that anymore - and it's your choice now. But please be careful. you are not vaccinated, please protect yourself'," he added.on which all restrictions are lifted at once. Rather, the country's way is to do things methodically and open up in a step-by-step manner, he said.
