Singapore.- Singapore\u2019s Ministry of Transport <\/strong>has confirmed that the planned travel bubble<\/a> between Singapore and Hong Kong has been put back until at least June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In April, the Ministry of Transport <\/strong>announced that an air travel bubble with Hong Kong was to begin on May 26. However, last week Singapore registered new cases of Covid-19<\/strong>, leading to the plans to be put back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two countries will closely monitor the public health situation<\/strong>. Hong Kong has said that an announcement will be made on or before June 13<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
