Transport Minister Khaw Boon Wan onboard a floating accommodation docked at Tanjong Pagar Terminal.
Over the last few days, the report said regular visits to the site have shown large marquees being set up with trucks carrying building materials seen entering the terminal which has been vacant since port operations relocated in 2017 as part of plans for a future mega port in Tuas. It also said that over the last few weeks, the Singapore government has been clearing and preparing various locations to house healthy foreign workers to curb the spread of the virus in worker dormitories or to convert them into community isolation sites.
All of the 10,000 foreign workers in essential services living in purpose-built dormitories have been moved into 18 alternative living areas such as military camps, floating hotels, sports halls and vacant Housing Board blocks.
