SINGAPORE, July 3 (Xinhua) -- Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman Charlie Munger said in an interview on CNBC that China's shutting down the country during the COVID-19 pandemic turned out to be exactly the right thing to do, Singapore's Lianhe Zaobao reported last Wednesday.
"They didn't allow any contact. You picked up your groceries in a box in the apartment and that's all the contact you had with anybody for six weeks," he said.

The interview was on CNBC's special "Buffett & Munger: A Wealth of Wisdom," which aired last Tuesday. Enditem
