Covid-19: 'Strict enforcement' on dine-in rules to start; people who falsely declare vaccination status can be fined, jailed

[TerrexLee]

ateries that fail to check the vaccination status of their patrons before granting them entry could face fines or closure, or both, while patrons who falsely declare their vaccination status could be fined or jailed, or punished with both.


Sounding this note of caution in a statement on Friday (Aug 20), the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) said that from this weekend, "strict enforcement" would be taken against operators and diners who flout infection-control measures that are based on vaccination status.


Ms Grace Fu, Minister for Sustainability and the Environment, said that during checks on more than 700 outlets and 2,000 diners last weekend, enforcement officers had identified seven operators that failed to check their patrons’ vaccination status.


Nine patrons were also found to have dined in before they were deemed fully vaccinated, that is, two weeks after receiving the second dose of a Covid-19 vaccine.

We should all just dine in hawker centre and coffe shops and let the restaurant sector bleed to death.
They mostly employ foreigners anyway .
This is the time for locals to unite and show the PAP we cannot be bullied and also at the same time support our hawkers and coffeshop stalls that are nearly all locals who also sacrifice themselves to serve NS .
Singaporeans support Singaporean hawkers and stalls.
Very soon even eating out will see a distinct trend -affluent foreigners eating in restaurants and being served in style while poor locals queuing for hours eating in hot and humid hawker centres and coffe shops . Way to go PAP!

Open gate to foreigners come in no quarantine.
This to boost economy and endemic.
But on the other hand capture fine punishment to non vaccinated people over a pay by yourself restaurant meal??
What's happening ??

Do we expect a protest from the people and eateries owners to go against such unjust rulings? You can go against it in masses and the govt can do nothing about it too. People have the power to overrule any rulings. Can Singaporeans do it?
