A Day Later:
URA Bans Robertson Quay Shops from Selling Alcohol After Reports of People Gathering While Waiting for Their Drinks Were Published
One day later, URA came out and announced that shops at Robertson Quay are not allowed to sell takeaway alcohol anymore.
According to them, that’s “a factor” which contributes to people gathering around the area.
Reader Bao: Wait, so instead of punishing the people who gathered, URA’s taking the easy way out to punish the businesses anyway?
Well-
Reader Bao: Well, time to protest. I’ll get a celebrity to join us in the protest.
…who exactly-
Reader Bao: Amos Yee right nipple.
…What?
Now, before you get all fired up over Yee’s right nipple like our dearest Baobao over there, turns out, the URA isn’t letting the gatherers escape either.

You Can Run But You Can’t Hide
Singapore’s resident discipline master, Mr Masagos Zulkifli, said that the Singapore Police Force has managed to track down “a number of individuals” caught blatantly gathering at Robertson Quay.
He added that they are “non-Singaporeans” and are currently under police investigations.
He added that anyone caught of breaching Circuit Breaker rules will be punished.
URA And SPF Will Continue To Monitor The Area
In his post, he also said that URA officers often patrol the area and found most operators and individuals to be compliant with the measures.
Previously, the Facebook post which first brought the issue to light added that there were no officers on patrol in the area.
Mr Zulkifli asks for everyone to abide by Covid-19 regulations and said that the SPF and URA will continue to monitor the situation there.
He also asks for Singaporeans to take photos and report via the #OneServiceApp should they spot anyone breaking the rules in Singapore.
We’re Doing Well But It’s Not Time To Relax
CB has been in place for six weeks and we’re just two weeks away from it being lifted.
Mr Zulkifli says that while we are “seeing progress”, the fight against Covid-19 “is far from over”.
The authorities are now concerned that a second outbreak might happen when Singapore start easing restrictions, just like what happened to Hokkaido.
He urges for people in Singapore to stay alert and vigilant so that we can “keep our loved ones and Singapore safe”.
Let us continue to stay home as far as possible. Remember to observe safe distancing and wear a mask if you need to leave your home.
