Temple volunteers preparing for the festival by placing barriers to enforce social distancing.
UNLIKE previous celebrations, this year’s Nine Emperor Gods Festival is expected to be celebrated in a subdued manner in view of the spike in Covid-19 cases in the country.
The temples will stay open, with strictly restricted entry, and there will be no processions, fire-walking, Chinese opera shows or free vegetarian meals.
