Editing Shopping hours (section)

===Singapore===
Shopping hours for shopping malls are usually from 10:00 to 22:00 from Monday to Sunday. Automotive shops like tire outlets are usually from 09.30 to 19:00. Some supermarkets are open twenty-four hours. Most stores do not open on the first day of Chinese New Year because of low demand patronage. However, the [[COVID-19]] pandemic prompted some shopping malls and stores to shorten their operating hours, a trend that has persisted in certain locations.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Commentary: Why shopping hours in some Orchard Road malls and retailers are changing |url=https://www.channelnewsasia.com/commentary/orchard-road-hours-operating-shorter-why-which-malls-stores-1923796 |access-date=2025-01-11 |website=CNA |language=en}}</ref> For instance, several outlets now close as early as 8:30 PM, reflecting changes in consumer behavior and cost management strategies.
