Each team is allowed in the office on alternate weeks though strongly encouraged to work from home. We haven’t been traveling so as not to bring the virus back from other places. Everyone is vigilant, lots of PSAs on TV and radio. A huge effort in contact tracing.
My company has two offices in Singapore and they've been split with no face to face contact between the two like that. Assigned WFH employees are banned from coming in and voluntary VFH employees are discouraged from doing so. Travel has basically been suspended with guidance on reporting personal/household travel & self isolation/quarantine guidelines depending on the origination.

Singapore also has the DORSCON scheme in place that guides the sort of measures that should be taken. Along with the status dashboard, I've been impressed by their response.
