It's pretty safe to say that Covid-19 has disrupted life for most of us in 2020, but the good news is that 2021 needn't be as bleak.

On Dec. 14 last year, Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong announced that Singapore will enter into Phase 3 of its reopening from Dec. 28 onwards.

The permitted group size for visitations and dining-in at eateries have since been increased to eight, three up from the previous five-person rule.

If you're wondering how to make the most of life in Singapore during Phase 3, we've come up with a list of 13 Telegram channels you can follow for the latest value-for-money deals, job openings, outing suggestions and more.
