Can I travel to Singapore or Thailand? Advice for green and amber list countries in south-east Asia

Most of south-east Asia is reassuringly absent from the UK's 'red list' of countries (with the exception of Sri Lanka, from June 8) so returning travellers are not subject to hotel quarantine restrictions - but does that mean the outlook for holidays is rosy? Unfortunately not, for the most part. All Asian nations currently have their own strict travel restrictions in place. Some impose outright bans on holidaymakers, while others have adopted mandatory quarantine schemes so draconian (Vietnam's lasts 21 days) that their borders are closed in all-but name.
