SINGAPORE - Popular parks in Singapore were crowded as usual on Saturday morning (May 8), the first day of tightened Covid-19 measures.
Dozens of runners, cyclists, hikers and photographers approached by The Straits Times along the Rail Corridor and at East Coast Park said they were sticking to their regular routines.
Most parkgoers abided by the new rules, in place until May 30, limiting social gatherings to groups of five from eight previously.
Student Hong Wenyang, 24, was taking photographs together with family and friends along the Rail Corridor s central section from Rail Mall to King Albert Park.
He said this was a usual weekend for them, planned before the tightened measures were announced on Tuesday - and that they were not affected in any way by the new cap on group size.
