Just received this link from a friend. He asks me to stock up some good just in case the situation becomes bad by next week. I think I better do some.stocking later.

Looks like now countries are starting to ban food exports and keeping the most for themselves.

We signed some agreement with ANZ to keep logistics supply open. ANZ supplies a lot of good quality fruits, veges and dairy products to Singapore.

Just keep about 5kg of rice per pax in the household, some instant noodles, canned tuna and sardines, toiletries, should be good enough.

Unlikely to have food shortage. Worst comes the worst, you and your child would have to make do with less.

I'm far more concerned with it becoming physically unsafe to visit a supermarket or a shopping mall due to widespread community transmission

I agree too. I am only a simple person, but i think food should be enough, but the choices may not be there. Like she likes steamed cod with plain congee so just in case no more cod comes into Singapore, so I better stock up some. Anyway, I am not paying for it. The maintenance monies should cover for it.

No worry one. We are prepared since SARS. Trust us and now bend down to pick up the soap.

It's not for me. I am a batang fish person. Cod is too creamy in texture for me. But the little one likes it. Not me.

If anyone buying in bulk for whatever reasons but not at food shortage stage.
It is better use the online platform for delivery eg. Fairprice, Sheng Siong or Giant.
At least it help us to save time on queue .

That is not wise. Why don't use this Covid crisis as an opportunity to quit smoking?
