The number of new community cases has stabilised over the last two weeks. Our tightened measures to keep Singaporeans safe are working. Thank you for staying home and complying with the guidelines.
Tomorrow, I intend to share with you how we plan to keep COVID-19 under control, while progressively opening up again. The solution: testing, contact tracing, and vaccinating, all faster, and more. Also: What will the new normal be like?

Just drop all these ridiculous restrictions and open the country up.
March 3, 2021
By Andrea Widburg
March 2 was a red-letter day in America because Texas announced that all COVID restrictions are henceforth over. Additionally, Mississippi, while it didn't go quite as far, did end mask mandates. Individual citizens in those states can still make their own choices about masks, social distancing, and their business plans, but the government is no longer riding herd on its citizens over a disease that is fading away.
On Monday, the New York Times expressed a panicky concern that life in America might one day return to normal:
Then came the usual doom and gloom, with Anthony Fauci leading the parade. The fact is that leftists do not want a return to normal. COVID has been the best thing that ever happened to them. It not only allowed them to put into place often unconstitutional rules that warped the 2020 election, but also gave them unprecedented control over Americans. No sane leftist voluntarily gives up that type of power.
Thankfully, not all states are Democrat-run. On Tuesday, Texas governor Greg Abbott announced that Texas is re-opening "100 percent":
Mississippi isn't going quite so far, but the mask mandates are now at an end:
What we're witnessing is the continuing blessing of America, which is that we have 50 laboratories of democracy, as well as geographic mobility. Much as Biden would like to keep America in perpetual lockdown to consolidate his party's power permanently, he can't. While California can maintain a permanent state of emergency, at least until Gavin Newsom is given the boot, its residents are going to see that life in Florida, Texas, Mississippi, South Carolina, South Dakota, and other Republican-run states is normal, happy, and economically thriving.
Just look at North American Van Lines' 2020 U.S. Migration report, which shows the major lockdown states hemorrhaging residents (which means losing its tax base and, eventually, its representation in Congress). Meanwhile, the free states are booming. As red states open up and blue states continue to self-immolate, those trends are going to continue in 2021.
Incidentally, the blue states aren't just lockdown states; they're the states that have bowed down to BLM and destroyed their criminal justice systems. That too will lead to people voting with their feet to escape states that have become hellholes of robbery, assault, and murder.
This news comes with a caveat: many of those leaving the blue states aren't much given to self-reflection. They understand that their states are going belly up and that they'll do better economically in the red states. However, they don't understand that conservative policies are what make the difference. Unless conservative residents in the target red states work hard to educate the new arrivals, the latter will destroy their new homes just as surely as they did with Colorado and Virginia, two successful red states that leftist migrants turned into damaged blues.

Texas and Mississippi announce a return to the Old Normal

That is exactly the way it should be in a free county.
Mississippi isn't going quite so far, but the mask mandates are now at an end:
Mississippi will continue to urge social distancing and self-quarantining for vulnerable people while requiring K–12 school kids to wear masks if they cannot social distance, and limiting indoor arenas to 50% capacity. Still, it's a great start.

Likely a sad story why he cannot retire and force to stay in Power to guide his 4G Cronies during this period.

SINGAPORE — Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong will deliver a live speech on Monday (31 May) regarding Singapore's approach to reopening while also controlling the spread of COVID-19 within its borders.
"The solution: testing, contact tracing, and vaccinating, all faster, and more," said Lee in a Facebook post on Sunday.
"Also: What will the new normal be like?" he asked in the post.

In his post, he also noted that Singapore's community cases had stabilised over the past two weeks, which showed that the country's tightened measures were working. He also thanked Singaporeans for staying home and complying with the guidelines.
Singapore entered its Phase 2 (Heightened Alert) period on 16 May following a spike in COVID-19 community cases and amid concerns about variants of the coronavirus spreading within the country. Due to end on 13 June, the period has various measures implemented including a reduction in the allowed number of people at social gatherings and a ban on dining in at restaurants, hawker centres and other eateries.
On Sunday, the Ministry of Health announced the detection of 19 new community cases in the community. Of these, 13 are linked to previous cases while the remaining six are unlinked.

PM is very good at taichi.
He was nowhere to be seen and let the 4G ministers be the bad guys and announced the tightening measures.
When it is time to open up again, he steps forward to announce the good news.

He said 'new normal'. So expect more or less the same shit. I expect an escalation in the surveillance nonsense, also known as contact tracing.

He looks tired ...
He is completely hopeless. Making so many useless speeches over the years from community cases to no more community cases and then import more cases resulted in current double-digit community cases again. I hoped he speak about him stepping down as PM immediately and do away with self-glorifying the task force and what not. This pandemic will never go away for many more years. Singapore need a major overhaul, less reliance on import foreigners, less reliances on cheap products, less reliance main stream media news, and less reliance on one-party view. That should be the speech we expect from PM if he still have some senses in him. Otherwise, it is a waste of public air time and our time. So fuck off PM Lee, if you have nothing new to talk about.
