Some Singaporeans complain that the Government took too long to have a Circuit Breaker to keep COVID-19 under control while others argue the Government has done a good job. Which camp are you and why?

No doubt there is always room for improvement, but I think the way COVID-19 is being handled here is rather commendable. Curious to know what the rest of the community thinks.

Definitely the pro-government camp here. Comparing to the other countries, our reactions to this situation is rather commendable. Yes, they do miss out on the miniority like the foreign workers in Singapore because they prioritise to save Singaporeans. But since the outbreak at the dorms, their reaction to the whole situation have once again proved their capability in planning and execution. The welfare provided compared to other countries are very different. I mean who will rent a cruise ship, hotels, proper housing to let people stay in it. I would say that this CB takes two hands to clap, be it Singaporean or FT, it is up to individual responsibility to take care of their own hygiene and well-being. There's so much an organisation can do but if no one cooperate, it is worthless.

That said, I think a lot of naysayers are being themselves (criticising every action) but never took the step to make a difference.
