Lifting spirits essential amid tough times

The netizen who posted the video speculated that the “positive signs” may be due to the expectation that 20,000 workers will be discharged from facilities by the end of May.

Although being infected with Covid-19 is no laughing matter, sometimes it’s good to lift one’s spirits amid these difficult times by doing something light-hearted.

So it’s good to see that the people at Singapore EXPO are doing just that — higher morale will definitely help in fighting and beating Covid-19.
