Singapore overtook Indonesia in coronavirus infections and now has the most cases in Southeast Asia after the city-state detected hundreds more victims among low-wage foreign workers.

Authorities said an additional 596 cases were confirmed as of noon Sunday, bringing the total to 6,558 in the country. Of the 596, only 25 are Singaporeans or permanent residents, the health ministry said in a statement.

Since late March, the Southeast Asian nation has seen a surge in local transmissions that’s largely affected foreign workers housed in tightly packed dormitories, further complicating efforts to curb the spread. The government has tightened entry rules, mandated masks, poured billions of dollars into the economy and imposed a weeks-long partial lockdown to contain the outbreak.

With the new tally, Singapore moved ahead of Indonesia, which now has 6,248 cases, and the Philippines with 6,087 cases. The two countries are expected to release their latest figures later on Sunday.

We owe these foreign workers a debt of gratitude for helping us to build our MRT and HDB flats so we should look after them now

Gratitude??? They didn't move to Singapore to work out of the kindness of their hearts. They did it to earn big bucks and fuck your maid.

Sick boy of the east, because the leeder isn't much of a man.

They do the job no doubt but gratitude is reserved for those who do things selflessly.

These banglas are just in it for the money and sex.

This is what happens when you trust in the WHO and in Uncle Tedros.

Besides mocking other countries and bragging about yourself on CNBC and in Davos, there's really nothing the PAP govt is good at.
