I currently live in Singapore. The government's initial strategy has been limiting visitors, quarantining returning passengers and extensive contact tracing. This worked well initially, where most of new cases are imported.
However, in the last few weeks there are more and more new cases that are "unlinked", namely tracer was not able to find link to existing cases / clusters. This suggests that there is probably a community spread going on. What makes it worse is that the initial success has made the general populace complacent. Most people go out, gather, and commute as normal; the majority of them do not wear mask. This and the lack of a lock-down set the current stage of "outbreak 2.0".
