The HongKong experience is likely to be more open, however I suspect with comrade Hu now at the helm, china's statistics will be much more transparent. If I remember correctly, Singapore had very draconian authoritarian rules and given their small population and initial large batch of outbreak, if there is any chance of containing a large outbreak with forced quarantine, they will be the first to succeed. Western countries have this thing called civil liberty that allows boneheads to do stupid things. In Toronto, there was a person told to stay home by health officials who went to work as his family covered up for him (lying to health workers who called to check on him). His whole plant (reportedly HP) was quarantined and a coworker was infected. Bonehead.
