FTs are very rich, even CECA too.
They definitely can contribute much much more than us.
Why do we need 5 Mayors and 80 PAP Ministers?

just make sure to charge the 2 person double price or cut their portion of food lor... I am sure all the F&B bosses are really good at it.

There is of course a more precise way which is to only close off biz where infection persons had visited. But that will take a lot of data mining thru the trace together and issue accordingly. Then some biz will complaint why others can dine 5 when they can only dine 2. Then how to enforce?
So administratively consistent will be to close off dining for 5 for at least 2 weeks to see how the infection number works out. We cannot have the entire workforce shifted to be social distancing officer, swabbers and enforcement personals... It's ridiculous to do small steps to curb a spread. You need preemptive strike and then precision tweaks thereafter.
Also, if covid continues to mutate and doesn't downgrade to a harmless flu as we move into another winter season, govt and biz must really go back to drawing board to determine what is the new normal... It's a good change to have people stay at home to dine, less night life and social craps. Less office and retail... More conversion of office to residential.
