SHOE SHOP AND RESTAURANT SUSPENDED FOR BREACHING SAFETY RULES
On Saturday, the Foot Locker store at Orchard Gateway @ Emerald and the Seoul Garden restaurant at Tampines Mall were ordered by authorities to suspend operations for 10 days for breaching COVID-19 safety rules.

Operations at both places will be suspended until Dec 14.
