      One very big difference between Taiwan and Singapore is that Taiwan is a fairly major mask manufacturer. I think they can ramp up production to supply their own needs quite easily.
      Another major difference is Taiwan is not a WHO member, and is now under anti-China DPP administration. They could disregard certain WHO recommendations and impose their one-month mask export ban as well as strict travel restrictions on mainland visitors much earlier. Earlier travel ban means fewer imported cases, and lesser psychological demand for more masks as the local cases recover.

      If they have excess masks from their factories, we can perhaps order from them after the ban is lifted end of mth. Singapore is not like HK or Macau where their daddy can generously pass 20 mil or 170 mil free masks across the border. We have to plan carefully.

        The masks via the retail channel are forever out of stock. Give up liao, working from home every day now. Anyone knows where can I still get sanitizer?
        Can try luck at small retailers in old shopping complexes or lanes.

          Can try Venus or Japan Home. But usually need to queue.

              Was quite lucky to be able to pick up some at these places these few days - probably residual.

              They are also not displayed at eye level.
