Lee: Singaporeans have to prepare for very different future


SINGAPORE (Xinhua): Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong on Monday (June 8) called on Singaporeans to prepare for a very different future, as Covid-19 (coronavirus) would remain a problem for a long time.

He delivered a national broadcast on Sunday evening, saying Covid-19, not only a public health issue but also a serious economic, social and political problem, would take at least a year, probably longer, before vaccines become widely available.
