SINGAPORE - Passengers headed to Guangzhou early Sunday morning appeared to have no issues boarding Scoot Flight TR100, despite having had to scramble to undergo last-minute Covid-19 tests after the Chinese Embassy announced new requirements.
This came after an Aug 21 announcement by the Chinese Embassy- that from Aug 28, all travellers from Singapore to China will have to take a Covid-19 test within five days of their flight to ensure they are free of the coronavirus. Passengers had to also declare that, in the last 14 days, they did not have a fever at or above 37.3 deg C, and had not been in contact with patients with a fever or respiratory symptoms, among other things.Mr Ren, who works in the manufacturing sector, said his company bore the cost of his Covid-19 test.
The Shandong native added that he was returning to China for good, with plans to start up his own business there. Said the 34-year-old:"I read about it online, it was quite last-minute and inconvenient but I managed to get the test done in time."
