That may have been because Singapore used to be doing quite well, now, not so much but they do highlight the dangers of the second wave.
Starting to see a lot of chatter about a Aus-NZ travel bubble now, I don't think it will happen for ski season as some are hoping (nor do I think there will be a ski season as we know it) but I think by August or so we should be able to get something happening, maybe a bit earlier for business travel, bit later for tourism
