When asked about the possibility of travelling overseas, Mr Wong, who is co-chair of the multi-ministry task force tackling Covid-19, said there are no easy answers, as this depends on how well countries can keep the pandemic under control.
But he expressed hope that some travel without quarantine will be possible before the year end.
"A lot depends on the (Covid-19) situation around the world. Also on the vaccination programme that we are presently undertaking," he said.
"So if all goes well with vaccination, then there is a chance that we may be able to allow for more travel without the quarantine when you come back, by the year end. But we have to keep our fingers crossed."
