          thought i saw some interview by doctors ( NCDC) mentioned may be 2 weeks
          this morn heard class95 , dunno interview which person also says maybe 2 weeks

          I think v likely, trying to give early notice and conditioning of people's mind not to over panic

          MOM sent notices to Corp org to cut down people traveling to office n make more work fr home

            Even schs reopen, they will keep the recent measures of min. Interaction among diff classes.


            The only question now is how many ppl working with the migrant workers who may work with those living in dorms, have kids and families and goes to schs here. They are the only link to them now, if local transmission reduce further.

              Even with schs remain close, no use if their families members still go out everyday and bring them to markets etc. The kids are still exposed.

                From what I see, our govt is not favouring a harsh lockdown, else that would have been done right from the start. Their approach is rather progressive and reactive, though Im not saying that is good or bad. But they need to weigh it with our very interlinked and fragile economy. Another month of lockdown means pushing us all back further into a more negative recession. We have not really felt the full effects of the recession yet with all the huge govt stimulus supporting almost everyone. There are many different camps now, some want safety, some really need money to support their families. Govt has to have a macro view approach. And yes, work and schools go hand in hand. But personally, I feel as long as local cases are down, it is ok for schools to reopen, as long as everyone wears mask and still practice safe distancing (which they do sit 1m apart in class).

                    Hello Mks! +4weeks...

                    (1) My P3's mid year assessment is cancelled, & there wasn't much HBL work in the 1st 2 weeks; but, the amount seems to be gradually added. This week, the form class (split into smaller groups of 10 or less students per session) start meeting up Live online (Google Meet; school has assigned students with individual Gmail accounts), just to touch base on general well-being.

                    My secondary school ones are busy, very - but, one of the principals wrote to inform us Not to worry. For them, there will be No weighted pen and paper exam, just focus on skills and content, plus there'll be recovery of content (if necessary) once school resumes. For the other, Moelc has released (last Friday, via teacher by email to students) an updated assessment plan for Term2 (comprising of assignments, SLS quizzes).

                    I believe that teachers know best, & would leave it entirely to their discretion.

                    (2) If the tuition centre can convince us that its online course is deserving? of our time+resource investment, we would naturally continue to support their online course...
