SINGAPORE - Several of the 12 restaurants which were penalised for breaching Covid-19 measures during stepped-up enforcements last week claimed on Wednesday (Feb 10) that the measures were unclear, or they were unaware of their offences.
Mr Mohammed Yusoff Hussein, manager of Zam Zam restaurant in North Bridge Road, which has been ordered to close for 10 days from Tuesday, told The Straits Times: Different safe distancing ambassadors have told us different things. In the morning, a safe distancing ambassador can say that our restaurant is okay but in the afternoon, another might request for something to be changed.
The Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) said the Indian-Muslim restaurant seated different groups of diners less than 1m apart on Feb 5. The outlet was fined on two previous occasions in May and December last year for breaching safe management measures (SMM).
