Distribution of scarce essential commodities

Why did the govt distribute the 4 face mask per household by personal collection, rather than sending them by mail?

Most people felt that it would be more efficient to use the mail. The value of the distributed item is small.

My guess is that the govt wants to put into place the mechanism for distribution of scarce items in the future. I have mentioned the need to be prepared to have a system in place in this post.

Who knows? Maybe the govt has people who monitors my posting and recognize the need to have a system in place?

Today, it may be face masks. In the future, it might be food or water or other essential commodities.

We need to have a system in place. We need to learn from the practical experience Agree?

  1. Based on 2018 tourist arrival data, there are 3,416,475 from China. This excludes people on employment pass and work permits. So, there could be an average of 284,000 China tourists in the month of January 2020, or 142,000 during the last 2 weeks, before border control starts on 2 Feb 2020.

    Questions:
    How many of them are still here?
    What proactive measures have been put in place for those who are still here?
