I arrived in Singapore on Monday morning, around midnight. I was in Vietnam for business at the end of 2019, and skipped going back to SG in favour of going to Kuching, my hometown, for CNY. Then the Malaysian lockdown happened and I was stuck in Kuching for 6 months.

The aircraft had all of 11 passengers. This made boarding and social distancing easier. We were seated near the back of the plane, likely for aircraft balancing reasons. No more than one person per row, with an empty row between us.

On arrival, we walked through a silent Changi airport, with a few temp screening stations set up along the way. An immigration officer gestured at a bunch of plastic chairs in a corner of the arrival hall. "Kuching sit there." We sat.

Singapore requires all arriving passengers to fill in a health declaration form on paper, and a digital declaration form online. You have to show the latter to the immigration officer. Processing was slow, because a few people on my flight had no idea about the eform.
