Our government decided to bring all bangladeshi from wuhan in a plane and quarantine them here. I dont know if thats a wise decision yet

you'll be fine. It's expected the virus will lose potency in higher temperatures, and Singapore in May is ****ing hot. Plus Singapore just cancelled all flights coming in from the Mainland. I expect they'll have it contained by the time May rolls around.
Singapore is hot all year round
Only 16 confirmed cases here so far. There’s probably a higher chance of me scoring a hundred next week than contracting the virus.
I feel like people are mistaking some of China’s preventative/damage control measures (EMTs arriving in HAZMAT suits, quarantining entire cities to prevent the spread of the virus, massive quarantine buildings being built in a week) for a sign that there’s a full blown zombie apocalypse going on.

As we only have approximately 80% of our students originating from China, I'm sure everything will be absolutely fine.

We are now...so, as a casual worker, I'm sure everything will be absolutely fine.

The general HK public outrage towards the govt and CCP during this virus outbreak is mostly fueled by the general anti govt sentiment that's still lingering after all the protests.
There's no way that Carrie Lam has the authority or ability to completely shut HKs borders with China.

So, the ban on Chinese travellers to Australia means many teachers at our university (QUT) no longer have work for at least 2 months, possibly longer. While I understand the ban, as the 3rd largest export after coal and iron ore I'm wondering where the pubic outrage is that people are losing their jobs.Oh, that's right, we're not coal or iron ore, so nobody gives a ****. The lack of diversity in the international student population at a number of unis will cause the same result there. The easy money has been from the Chinese over the last 5-10 years, so that's who has been targeted. Can anyone guess how many people in management, marketing, or even reception are casual? None. The people who are apparently qualified to drive the ship have been asleep at the wheel because it's easy. Now, while the virus is not their fault, it has come back to bite them on the arse as a number of experts predicted it would. Except it hasn't really bitten them on the arse, they still have jobs. The people who have paid for it are those who don't make decisions that lead to an over-reliance on 1 country to fill your classrooms.
Luckily, my wife started working full-time 2 weeks ago, so I can now fulfill my dream of busking as a poet/mime in Queen St Mall. Some teachers have this as their only income though, so they are desperate for something else, and fast.
