* Shops selling non-essential good such as clothes, shoes and toys will be allowed to re-open
* Indoor religious services will be allowed to resume, but the number of worshippers will be capped at 30 people.
PHASE TWO – FROM DEC. 15
* Lockdown is lifted
* A curfew will be in place between the hours of 9:00 pm and 7:00 am daily.
*Cinemas and theatres will be allowed to re-open
PHASE THREE – FROM JAN. 20
* Bars, restaurants and cafes can re-open
