Insights across South East Asia

<p>For investors who are not based in Singapore, the mini lockdown in Singapore has started again due to the sudden increase in the number of community cases which previously was relatively under control. Before one thinks that it is a too-harsh of a policy, the rate of the increase of unlinked community cases in Singapore is high. This matters a lot because every Singapore residents need to check in every establishment using either an Identification card, Trace Together app, or token which has proved to be very effective as for months, most of the COVID-19 cases can be traced and therefore allows the government to take the necessary actions. </p>
<div class="content-highlight">
<p>This time is different. Alongside the third wave that has hit India and Thailand, Singapore, too, is hit. The Singapore government's response to this is very much like the first lock-down (Circuit Breaker), that they minimize public interactions so that the number of community cases does not increase and provide them with the time to perform contact tracing thoroughly. </p>

Equity Bottom-Up

<p>The SGD 100 Discover Singapore vouchers that were handed out since 1st December 2020 to its citizens have provided the much-needed sparks in Singapore's hospitality industry that also benefits the Singapore transport sector. <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/comfortdelgro-corp-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:497:1" rel="noopener">Comfortdelgro Corp (CD SP)</a>captures this in two angles; higher revenue in public transport as well as in the taxi segment. The taxi segment has a historically higher gross profit margin compared to public transport although of late, the online ride-hailing app has challenged the former's dominance. </p>
<p>Although Phase 3 is unlikely to happen today after PM Lee's speech, today's speech will highlight more positives rather than negative news on the COVID-19 development for Singapore and will help to increase higher mobility in Singapore that benefits ComfortDelgro. There will be an increase in group size on phase 3 and capacity limits in public places and events including weddings. Borders will also be slowly reopened that invite more tourists to come to Singapore. </p>
<p>Although Hong Kong is still juggling with more pandemic cases compared to Singapore, <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/mtr-corp" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:13289:1" rel="noopener">MTR Corp (66 HK)</a> share price has held up far better compared to <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/comfortdelgro-corp-ltd" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:497:1" rel="noopener">Comfortdelgro Corp (CD SP)</a> . Thus ComfortDelgro's share price should play a catch-up. </p>
