Since Spore is one the the homeport, got to let the cruise dock to refuel the resources /rest. how to travel al lthe way fr Spore back to Italy -medical supply, help , food etc are challenge
Let's be more compassionate with the cruise ship. If we were on the ship, would we want to be left on board just because no-one would let the ship dock? Singapore, with its good controls, is well placed to handle the situation, and will bill the non-Singaporeans/PR for any medical care they incur. The only quibble I have is that perhaps they should be quarantined for 14 days if they do not leave Singapore immediately.
Hope can send them home asap - & not wandering on the streets - dun they want to go back home soon to self quarantine? ( maybe no for some whose home countries are v infected

If you cannot tell the difference between an objective statement and a xenophobic statement crafted to stir up emotions, I see no point engaging you.
Why resort to using labels like xenophobic when it’s not the case here? From an objective perspective, a sick foreigner who flew in to seek free medical treatment endangered a plane load of passengers and consumed medical resources with minimum value-add to the country. Should he welcomed with open arms? Or just made to pay the medical fees without taking into account the people he could have infected in the process?
Calling a spade a spade by calling out a xenophobic statement is not resorting to using labels. And I will also call out passive aggressive mumbo jumbo. -

I agree .. and also the quarantine part..hope they not only single out Italians/higher risk countries ppl for more checks as they all have been \"together\" for some time already..want to tour Spore, always welcome back ..go shop/eat etc..as after this I believe will have more promo on airtickets/hotel rooms/food etc..

let them get refund on booked hotel rooms? free change date on airtickets and some welcome vouchers for next visits?
but but hor...I think this is one that we got to know about the cruise ship docking here...and this is not first leh

Should have quarantined everybody who came into contact with all those people boarding the Costa Fortuna when it set sail from Singapore a week ago. Why wait until it comes back?

I would have sunk the ship and report that it hit a reef.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Everyone should use their skills future credits to pick up bow / arrow skills. Useful in the near future. -
Open air concert at gardens by the bay sound risky too hoh?
Read that passengers on cruise went straight to airport or hotel near by. They must have felt so helpless and unsafe, and to have all eyes on them. Who would have thought the outbreak become so widespread globally? Just untimely that jurong cluster appeared too.
But at this conjuncture, no choice. Better play safe than sorry. Hopefully they can go back for now and come back in peace time. -

[/quote]Considering the paranoia behavior that everyone is exhibiting, it’s a matter of time before someone shoots someone else. May as well pick up a self defense skill, just in case. And in the event that the victims mutate into zombies, the bow and arrow will be handy when you have to put on your best Daryl Dixon impersonation.
