Singapore will ease more COVID-19 restrictions from October, authorities said last week.
This includes allowing up to 100 attendees at all worship servicesfrom Oct 3, double the current limit of 50.
Live music can also resume at 16 religious organisations, as part of a pilot programme by the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth (MCCY), while some places of worship may trial services for up to 250 people.
The increased limit of 100 people will also apply to non-congregational religious activities, subject to the religious organisation’s ability to adhere to safe distancing measures given its physical capacity, said MCCY.
However, existing limits of 30 people for funeral-related activities and 50 people for religious classes will remain.
All congregational worship and religious services were suspended in March as Singapore tried to contain the COVID-19 outbreak.
They were allowed to resume in June, with up to 50 people at a time, in Phase 2 of Singapore’s post-“circuit breaker” reopening.
