JAKARTA - There are still many people in shopping centers in Singapore wearing masks. When the government no longer required to wear masks. Previously, Singapore's Health Minister Lawrence Wong had announced that the citizens were no longer required to wear masks starting next week.

However, masks still have to be worn on modes of transportation such as MRT, LRT, and public buses, as well as in indoor public transportation facilities such as boarding areas at bus intersections and MRT platforms.

However, masks are not mandatory at airports, bus intersections are naturally ventilated, and in retail areas of bus intersections, MRT, and LRT stations.

Monday, August 29, as quoted from Channel News Asia, it was observed that many people were still wearing masks in shopping centers and malls.

However, there are also those who continue to wear masks because they do not know that the regulation has been revoked. For example, Aminah Johari at the NEX shopping center in Serangoon.

He said he would continue to wear masks until Singapore recorded less than 100 cases per day.

The 61-year-old said she was concerned about the announcement because the number could increase over the end of the year.

"Because of that, they said cases might rise again by the end of the year and because of some people, when they sneeze or cough, they don't keep their mouths (even) before the pandemic," he said.
