Singapore will require some incoming travelers to use an electronic surveillance device to ensure they comply with 40 coronaviruses as the city-state reopens its borders, the government announced Monday.
From 11 August, the aircraft will be delivered to incoming travelers, adding citizens and residents, from a chosen organization from countries that will be allowed to isolate themselves at home than in a state-designated facility.
Similar measures have been used in Hong Kong and South Korea using electronic wristbands to track the movements of quarantined persons.
Travelers to Singapore should turn on the device, which uses GPS and Bluetooth signals, when they succeed at home and will get notifications on the device they want to recognize.
Anyone who leaves space or falsifies the device will alert the authorities.
Hong Kong introduced a program in March that allowed travelers who arrived to wear a thin electronic wristband, on a label used on hospital patients, to quarantine arriving passengers. South Korea has also used such bracelets connected to smartphone apps for those 40 years old.
Singapore, which did not give the main points of the appearance of the device, said in a statement that it will not buy any non-public knowledge and that it has no voice or video recording function.
Guests over 12 years of age or younger must use the devices.
The city-state, which also plans to give all citizens a virus detection dongle, has serious consequences for violating its quarantine and social estrangement rules.
Under the Infectious Diseases Act, the consequences can be fines of up to S$10,000 ($7,272) or imprisonment of up to six months, or both. He revoked painting passes for foreigners who broke the rules.
Singapore reported 52825 coronavirus infections, mainly due to large outbreaks in the overcrowded dormitories of migrant workers, however, imported cases have increased in recent days.
people who let themselves be held as farm animals end up being labeled as farm animals …
What is a human rights violation? This is unbelievable. People are like pets.
Do human rights reflect all these aberrations?
What violation of human rights?
What “human rights” are you talking about here? They are incoming travelers, and if they don’t like it, it’s their choice to pass or not.
You live here in Japan as a foreigner, you will have to have an apartment card. Is this a violation of “human rights”? No, it’s just the law of the country.
Same thing in Singapore.
@Yubaru
I can see privacy, security and freedom issues with this law.
The removal of female genitalia was a law until the last decade in some African countries.
Do you think any legislation violates human rights?
people who let themselves be held as farm animals end up being labeled as farm animals …
And that’s why America is number one.
A possibility for Japan to create commercial areas /tax haven games for foreigners. These communist countries are crazy
It’s that of this land, like this or that, you choose
Do you think any legislation violates human rights?
The country of Singapore, the regulations of Singapore. Don’t you like it? Choose another location for your foreigner.
So far, Singapore has lost only another 27 people to this pandemic, thanks to world-class management. Good for them.

A guy from Melbourne has been accused of not following self-isolation orders for two weeks upon arriving in South Australia.
SA police went to an asset in Glenelg around 20:00 on Thursday after receiving reports that the type was not quarantined at the designated location through him after entering Victoria on Wednesday.
On arrival, police reportedly left and left in a Holden van.
The patrols followed the guy and, after stopping his car, discovered that he had only booked accommodation for one night, unlike the thirteen nights he had to isolate himself.
The 35-year-old man from Keysborough, south-east Melbourne, charged with failing to obey an indicting and was denied bail.
He made the impression at the Adelaide Magistrates’ Court on Friday and was remanded in custody to reappear on 12 August.
denied bail and remained on remand for a month until the next court hearing. human rights activists, do something!
All those types of self-isolation, self-quarantine are one of the many reasons why many original hot spots that had the idea that they were on the most sensitive stage have had surprises in recent weeks.
Good way.
Singapore has a large friendly face with the world, but its government is less repressive than the PCCh. They even have girls looking at the men’s bathroom from a booth to make sure they flush the toilet chain, and it was a $1,000 Singapore (about $500 U.S.) If you didn’t. They push you through the police to stretch onto the lawn of a park for a little nap. The press is heavily censored. The position is too closed for its own good.
It doesn’t have to be a covid hell like America. I don’t like it, don’t go that way.
Okay.
By the way
None of us have the ability to cross national borders.
I can see privacy, security and freedom issues with this law.
In a pandemic? Take a look at how Singapore has treated the pandemic. No, there are no disorders, no disorders, it’s your choice.
I don’t like it, I’m not going, as undeniable as that.
They even have to keep an eye on the men’s bathroom from a cabin to make sure you flush the toilet,
Dude, I’ve been to Singapore countless times and I’ve never noticed. People crazy about Singapore.
You can lie down in the park, you probably did it in a domain that had symptoms of “Don’t walk on the lawn” and that your desires exceeded the regulations of where you were.
Again, I don’t like it, don’t go! The other people who live there don’t complain, why you? Oh, yes, you feel fucked up for not following the rules.
And besides, anyone who doesn’t flush the toilet after he’s a donkey anyway and deserves to be fined.
Looks like you’re from the United States, so I sense your arrogance and ignorance, but you’re informed that Asian countries do things differently.
