Communities affected by Covid-19 in Singapore
Singaporeans, we’ve been in this pandemic for a while. As we navigate the ever-changing situation, some of us might be facing difficulties in attaining personal milestones like weddings, graduation and jobs, coping with WFH, or keeping our businesses afloat.
Seeing how many of us are in “survival mode”, sparing a thought for others might be the least of our priorities.
But don’t let doing good take a backseat – it can be simple to help someone who has it a little tougher in these trying times. If you’re keen and unsure on where to start, here are some ideas.
SINGAPORE - Strict Covid-19 regulations are again in place but 2,600 or so migrant workers across 30 factory-converted dormitories still enjoyed a slap-up meal and a free lungi (sarong) to mark Hari Raya Puasa on Thursday (May 13).
The annual festive distribution organised by Alliance of Guest Workers Outreach (AGWO) used contactless drop-offs amid safety measures to combat the recent outbreak of Covid-19 among dorm residents.
Islamic Religious Council of Singapore (Muis) Deputy Mufti Ustaz Mohammad Hannan Hassan dropped in at a Tuas dorm where 100 meals and lungis were distributed. He also thanked the construction workers for their cooperation in keeping cases low.
