On Mar. 20, the Ministry of Health (MOH) announced stricter safe distancing measures for public venues in Singapore, including retail and F&B outlets.
Queuing patrons should have at least one-metre distance between them, as should diners in restaurants and visitors at attractions.
Barely two days after the announcement, a number of local establishments have complied with the measures.
Here are some examples:

Not-so-safe distances
Unfortunately, there have also been establishments flouting the requirements.

There is always the possibility that these establishments have just yet to implement the measures, though.
