It is known that the virus does not do well in warmer, humid temperatures, so we shall see.

The first two paragraphs state:

The arrival of spring in the Northern Hemisphere has raised hopes that warmer and wetter weather might slow or even stop the COVID-19 pandemic, at least until fall. But don’t plan on that happening, U.S. health experts say.

“One should not assume that we are going to be rescued by a change in the weather. You must assume that the virus will continue to do its thing,” Anthony Fauci, director of the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in Bethesda, Md., and a member of the White House coronavirus task force, said during an interview April 9 on ABC’s Good Morning America.

Later in the article, a study said it required 30 minutes at 56C to render the pathogen non-infectious. Singapore is around 32C and the pathogen is definitely "doing its thing" there.
