They behaved themselves for two reasons.

1) It's in their nature to do so
2) The rules were implemented nationally regardless of deviation.

e.g. Koh Samui (also an island) had an incredibly low case rate, yet was and is subject to the same restrictions as mainland Thailand the last time I checked.

Singapore, outbreaks mainly confirmed to migrant workers accommodation however rules were applied at the entire city state
