The Gilt Comes Off: Singapore Goes Into Lockdown - The News Chronicle


The Gilt Comes Off: Singapore Goes Into Lockdown
The Gilt Comes Off: Singapore Goes Into Lockdown
A clean, technology driven dystopia.  A representation of our techno future.  These were the introductory descriptions to a piece by science fiction author William Gibson on Singapore for
Wired in 1993.  “Imagine an Asian version of Zurich operating as an offshore capsule at the foot of Malaysia; an affluent microcosm whose citizens inhabit something that feels like well, Disneyland. Disneyland with the death penalty.”
Micromanaged, controlled, sterile, the city state was always going to be seen as a model for combating the spread of SARS-CoV-2.  Digital check-ins were rapidly introduced to facilitate contract tracing, along with temperature scans.  Plans such as SG Clean were implemented in February 2020, covering businesses in shopping malls to the hawker markets.  Good personal hygiene habits were encouraged, among them hand washing, temperature monitoring, the use of tissues, binning of litter.  The initiative duly inspired international examples. In April 2020, Portugal launched its own version of SG Clean.  Abu Dhabi went with its Go Safe certification scheme a few months after.
