89pc of Singapore migrant workers at dorms cleared of Covid-19, says ministry
Wednesday, 05 Aug 2020 07:03 AM MYT
The Ministry of Manpower said in a press release yesterday that 127 more foreign worker dormitories have been cleared of Covid-19 as well. MOM reiterated that it has made progress over the past weeks in “progressively allowing more foreign workers to resume work.” In addition, 35 blocks for recovered workers within 12 purpose-built dormitories have also been cleared.
Wong was then National Development Minister but is now Education Minister after a Cabinet reshuffle on July 25. “This arose from the dormitory operator’s feedback that the residents did not stringently observe the quarantine requirements during the initial 14-day isolation period,” it said.
