最新通告：新加坡港口开放，提供基本海运服务，但员工需要在家远程办公！

  新加坡总理李显龙4月3日宣布，该国将实施更严格的措施以控制新冠疫情发展。新加坡海事及港务管理局当晚发布新闻公告指出，新加坡港口将继续开放货运业务，并将继续提供基本的海运服务，包括燃料供应、船舶物料和船舶供给。

  根据此前新加坡卫生部发布的公告，从2020年4月7日至2020年5月4日(含)，所有不能通过在家远程办公进行的商务、社交或其他活动将被暂停。但基本服务及其相关供应链，以及构成全球供应链一部分的实体，将被豁免暂停业务。

  新加坡海事及港务管理局指出，海运是新加坡重要的经济部门，而新加坡港口对确保货物流通至关重要。因此，新加坡港口将继续开放。被豁免暂停的海事相关活动包括：航运，例如船舶运营商和班轮运营商；与航运有关的服务，例如船舶管理和船舶代理；安全及航行服务，例如船级社、领航、救助及拖航；港口和码头业务，包括建筑；港口海事服务，例如船舶修理、加燃料、渡轮服务等。

  新加坡海事及港务管理局表示，获豁免暂停业务的海事实体将于2020年4月3日22时之前收到该部门的确认邮件。他们也可于这一时刻起，在www.mpa.gov.sg/es_enquiry网站上确认其豁免资格。

  此外，新加坡海事及港务管理局表示，员工可以在家远程办公的商业活动可以继续进行。该部门预测新出台的防疫措施将实施到2020年5月4日，但如有必要，可能会延长。根据新加坡《传染病法》，不遵守这些措施将触犯法律，对违法者的处罚包括最高1万新元的罚款或最多6个月的监禁，或两者兼施。此外，不遵守条例的个人或经营者也可根据该法令被暂停业务。
