SINGAPORE: A karaoke outlet at Orchard Road has been ordered to suspend operations after 51 people were found drinking alcohol at the premises at 12.05am on Christmas Day.
Operations at MZS Family Karaoke, which is located at 21 Cuscaden Road, have been suspended for 20 days after COVID-19 safe management measures were breached, said the Ministry of Sustainability and the Environment (MSE) in a news release on Wednesday (Dec 30).
Two Resorts World Sentosa hotels, the Beach Villas and Equarius Hotel, have to suspend bookings for a month after failing to comply with Safe Management Measures (SMMs), Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said in a media release on Dec. 21.
The two hotels will not be allowed to accept new bookings between Dec. 22, 2020, and Jan. 21, 2021 (both dates inclusive), but are allowed to fulfill existing bookings during this period.
Breach in five-person rule and failed to conduct entry screening
Investigations by STB’s enforcement officers revealed that at least 15 individuals had gathered in a two-storey villa in Beach Villas on Oct. 10, 2020, even though the villa was booked under four of these individuals.
