These foreign workers have sacrificed much to Singapore's economy. It is now the Govt's turn to appreciate their services and take care of them in times of need.
@@wee717 you know yes you are right unfortunately :( it is saddening but perhaps this may just be the turning point and there is a silver lining. I do however believe that it is our duty first and foremost as fellow human beings to have compassion and empathy and to educate those around us, especially our young . And since we are blessed to be aware, we can be hopeful and be exemplary in our words and deeds. Let's not give up. Society can learn and rejuvenate itself if members are introspective and yearn to make a difference:) There are lessons to be learnt and we can all do better. Let's give it a try , my friend.
@@poolfans do you willing to work their position? If no, who will going to commit it ? Hopefully answer oredi reflected from your bottom of heart. Bless you 😇
frans frans096 Same, ask yourself. These worker can’t find job in their Home Countries. If they could they wouldn’t be here. They are here for money. SG hire them for the job we need them to do. End of. I am not taking away anything from these foreigners. many of them are hardworking. But Sacrifice is not the word to describe them.
Unfortunately not everyone can stay in 5 star hotels. Maybe more regulation and health inspections should be put in place to ensure clean and comfortable living conditions but it's all up to their contractors and employers. However, looking at their living space it looks fine. These people came to Singapore to work, not to go on vacation. Of course we want everyone to be comfortable but it simply doesn't work that way. I am not trying to discriminate against these blue-collar workers but this is simply a reality even I had to accept.
I have many workers in Westlite Toh Guan. I really am deeply moved by my workers good attitude in understanding the efforts of the gov. And our SG gov really gave it 100% to rescue them and us. Thank You
I don't know how you guys caught the CCP Virus. And I'm of course very sorry for you all because nobody likes to be sick, whether you are rich or poor! But please don't worry so much! The government is collecting fines from Singaporeans who flout the circuit breaker rules with minimum S$300 fines. Each fine collected would be able to feed one of you guys for at least 3 to 4 weeks! You can also WhatsApp your family back home not to worry from the free WIFI in your dorms! Please take care. After you all have recovered, please go home to your families.
God. I cried at the end. If all nations treat their foreign workers like the Singapore government does, the world would be a better place. Thank you, Singapore.
Thanks to sg government for taking care us wonderfully. When we saw other countries worker situation during this critical time we feel more safe here in Singapore. Hope Allah will make our life normal soon. I told my family, don't worry iam in singapore.
You guys do your part, when all this is over, we will rebuild this Singapore together and you guys can have a better life for yourself and your family.

This was so sad and touching. It’s so painful to see their living conditions this way. Some of them don’t even have mattress and sleep on thin cardboard. Yet they stay so positive and appreciative of what is given and how they are being taken care of. They work so hard to build our country and don’t even get to visit their families back home. Hope the situation gets better and those who are infected will get better. For the rest of us in Singapore please stay home. It’s unfair that all these men do is just come to our country to work and help build our nation despite being paid so little. And yet they don’t blame anyone despite their current conditions.
Yes agreed but their locking conditions are actually not bad comparing with the army camp during my time. In fact it was v good. Can cook own food and toilet nearby. I am not sure if they sleep on card board, didn't see anyone in the clip doing that
In my experience Singaporean’s general standard of English is very hard to understand as a native English speaker. It took me months to try and understand the average person during daily conversation even with people not using Singlish. Indians and Malaysians seem to be much more easily understood.

Thank you Singapore for taking care of your people and even looking after us foreign workers. Keep safe everyone and may all nations heal and recover from this crisis.
thank you for covering them and letting them speak. i think so many people lack empathy and can't place themselves in the shoes of these workers just because they are lucky enough to be born in a better condition. and it takes a pandemic to show that we're never that different from one another. covid-19 doesn't discriminate. we're all fighting similar battles, we're all worried about our loved ones. hopefully we'll all get better after this.

Thank you Singapore and Singapore government for really taking care of us. Each act are implemented and executed at its best and definitely we’re about to come over this virus! Majulah Singapura! 🇸🇬
Thank you , Singapore is doing it’s best during this crisis , we will pray , may Allah end this pandemic ASAP and insha Allah he will reward humanity with a peaceful world without this crisis very soon
Have a newfound appreciation for their efforts at staying calm despite being in a foreign place, their willingness to cooperate, on top of all the things they've done to help build SG. Also, thank you to the SG govt for caring for them! We will all pray for this calamity to be over soon so that everyone can stay safe and happy again.

Well done SG gov for taking care of the locals as well as foreign workers especially our PM Lee who is always there for us . We will stand united to fight this covid 19. This will pass us in no time 1. Have confidence in our Gov 2. Have confidence in ourselves 3. Help each other
Aiyo heart pain. Eyes got onion. 😢May God protect them and speedy recovery to all those affected. Thank you for all your hard work to make SG a better place to live. God bless ya'll.
Stay Strong, we heal as one. Anyone is one of us while you are here in Singapore, all included from tourist , residents, citizens to workers. We take care of each other here in Singapore . Keep safe and healthy always.
Money is just an earthly essential Having the love of money is the Root of All Evil Foeeign workers work hard for the money as their living expenses They are not running after the money Money is Not everything!! It has No Everlasting Value!!!
Actually, money does mean a lot of things. For examples, in this virus outbreak, you have money, you can stay at 5-star hotel, instead of cooping up in a small HBD flat with all your family members; you can order food deliver to your doorstep every day; while others have to queue up for takeout, etc etc. I LOVE MONEY
@@southface764 agreed about money, but disagree about 5 star hotel. My HDB is wayyy better than any 5 star hotel and my wife cooks healthy great tasting food, better than any takeaway
The worker at the end said "Who do we blame? You can't blame anybody". Totally agree with what he said. Unlike some of the people I came across online and offline, still possess "blame this, blame that, blame others" attitude, taking things for granted as if the society, the govt, etc., owe them a living. I hope this crisis also teach people moral & civic education, not just personal hygiene.
Cried while watching this. These are the hardworking, innocent workers who would do exactly as we dictate. Nothing more, nothing less. They work the hardest, they earn the least. Just because they were not lucky to be born in Singapore. May God bless them and our Singapore. Stay strong, my little brothers.
Lucas Chu recently the Msia government told them to clean their dorm themselves but in Spore they have cleaner to help them clean. Honestly, Spore govn did a lot for them already, but they have to take care of their hygiene themselves too.
Thank you guys for publishing all these. Makes us Singaporeans feel so blessed we can be with our families at this point. It broke my heart when I heard these foreign workers say one by one their roommates got infected and they are worried the next one is going to be them. Please treat them well because they have never complained about working so hard for us! One of the sweepers in my neighbourhood never fails to greet everyone in the morning with a genuine smile and recently I have not seen him around anymore. My prayers go out to him and everyone in isolation right now... :'(
Do take care all my friends. Remember we are here for a living to our family 👪 at hometown so please appreciate the Singapore government support in our need since day 1 until now..... Million thank to the Singapore government expertly the GOOD HEART PM.... WE LOVE YOU SIR THANK. GOD BLESS YOU 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 AND ALL THE CITIZENS SIR THANK
It is very moving to see the prime minister acknowledging the hard work of foreign workers. He didn't just acknowledge the current workers, but the generations before as well. That is one thing every nation should learn.
The assurance given by Singapore PM is so assuring. I believe if these migrant workers are in other countries, they might not get the kind of assurance that Singapore is giving. For that note, kindness and goodness will come back to Singapore in manifolds! God bless Singapore, the Antioch of Asia. God will restore what Singapore has lost brought about by this pandemic.
Thank you, to the CNA team who put this together, to the workers who helped built our nation, to the people who care about these workers and treat them as one of us... Thank you all.
Wow!. So many positive comments on this page. Truly inspiring to know we care for each other amidst this challenging time. Thanks, CNA for sharing the dorm story.
This is an interesting insight into the lives of our builders, I think somehow we've all turned a blind eye to them. As long as things get built, we don't ask or look into things like this. But this was a good wake up call for future generations of Singaporeans and builders, to get better facilities and living conditions in one of the best cities in the world. It's not just the Gov that has to do more, but we as Singaporeans need to be more aware and more open about this kinda things :) Being part of the construction industry, I owe a big thanks to all of them!
Thanks to all our Indian friends for being cooperative by staying in your room. Hope all are safe and that those infected will become healthy again. Good to see that govt is helping and the recipients are happy. Kudos to CNA Insider for this video. At least now we can see that they have a better living condition than in India, albeit a little crammed. Space is limited and expensive in Singapore.
The sad part is, if we Singaporeans did fully mingle and integrate with them previously as a society, we might be having huge local numbers too! It seems like the discrimination against them has sort of saved all of us from their cases and clusters.
Thanks bro, we all Singaporean want you to know we all do deeply appreciate you and your fellow members’ hard work and contribution to Singapore 🇸🇬 . We trust our Govt and your employers have heard you and assistance and more care will be on the way. Take care and stay strong 💪
Thank you for making/building Singapore so beautiful! When things get better, we will start all over again. Take good care of yourself! Stay strong! Sgunited ❤️
From the video, it looks clean and tidy, their living condition is almost the same as the hong kong lower-income living condition. These guys are our nation builders. Hope they are all safe and get well soon!
I keep hearing people saying the living conditions are bad in the dorms. But looking at it for myself, it is more spacious and have better facilities than my bunk during NS time. Just only have themselves to blame for not keeping it tidy and de-cluttered, but no RSM to ask them stand by bed what. But I love how all of them are so positive and YOLO-happy.
That's because those online keyboard warriors and the citizens who dislike our Government like to assume the dormitory space is cramp and many workers squeeze in one small rooms. They love creating all these untrue facts and try to create discord among us all.
So many times better than the cage homes in HongKong. These migrant workers are truly blessed to be in Singapore. And the assurance given by PM Lee adds value to their spirit of keeping hope alive in seeing and reuniting with their families once the pandemic is over. Soldier on, dear friends. Together with your Singaporean friends, the uphill battle can be overcome. God bless.
Jasper JK These dorms have been cleaned up since being gazetted as isolation areas and prepped for broadcast. I am sure there are many other dorms out there in worse conditions.
A few days ago my teacher was telling us about interviews and how they can ask really difficult questions. And one of the questions the teacher suggested was "If there was only 1 ventilator left and an elderly singaporean man and a young migrant worker both need it, who will you give it to". That question never hit as hard as it is now after watching this video.
Thank you so much for contributing to Singapore and help us to build up our nation! Please take care and stay safe. We will stay as one Singapore to fight this virus together! 加油!
I really felt very sad about seeing the video. I wish we get through this tough time at the earliest. thanks much to CNA for bringing the inside story. Prayers with all. Stay healthy. Stay safe.
SG foreign workers are definitely in the minds and attention of Singapore (good to see initiatives by the Govt). Continue your strong spirit, perseverance and discipline .. keep faith in the process and hopefully the situation will ease soon.
I won't complain anymore about being quarantined at home with the luxury of my bed, tv, fast internet, free flow food, clean water. If they say 'boring no problem' as long as they're protected from the virus, then I say so too. I hope we are all in good health
Respect you guys!!! Singaporean, take an example from them, listening to the singapore law and not scared of boredom but life and their family life wherea Singaporean here all stubborn and complaining about boredom. Pls la think that others life is much more worse than you but they are grateful. I'm sad. I pray that Singapore will be even together and strong as a nation. Amminn❤️❤️❤️❤️
if all government in the world is like singapore there will always be lucky foreign workers... i am not working in singapore but i visited it thrice... singaporeans are the nicest people so trusting and very kind... i love singapore so much...
God bless you guys...stay strong...nothing happen to good people...god promise...Singapore will never forget u guys for all your contribution to Singapore...tc thanks🙏
I hope and wish after this pandemic problem,the goverment give a better assistance I mean like the accomodations.There room is very small with 12 person inside we just try to out ourselve to there position.no wifi,it should atleast wifi is free.coming here to work far from our family is very hard but they still doing there job well.they have time limit to talk to there family because of there work.which is there family is one of there strength...buildings houses roads almost everything that u can see here in singapore the beauty of singapore is because of them.there dedication there effort there love to there works..so please I think they deserve good treatment or special treatment..and thanks to all singaporeans who shows there understanding efforts concern care and love.
These are the heroes of Singapore. Keeping our little red dot island progress fast and clean. Keep up the spirit high. We all supports you everyone there.Thank you!🙏

thank you for covering them and letting them speak. i think so many people lack empathy and can't place themselves in the shoes of these workers just because they are lucky enough to be born in a better condition. and it takes a pandemic to show that we're never that different from one another. covid-19 doesn't discriminate. we're all fighting similar battles, we're all worried about our loved ones. hopefully we'll all get better after this.

Wow them using macbooks in dormitories and doing online homework shows that they are constantly improving themselves very frequently.
And no one talks about these.
Our country needs them. Their families need them. Thank you guys!!!
Thank you Singapore and Singapore government for really taking care of us. Each act are implemented and executed at its best and definitely we’re about to come over this virus! Majulah Singapura! 🇸🇬
Thank you , Singapore is doing it’s best during this crisis , we will pray , may Allah end this pandemic ASAP and insha Allah he will reward humanity with a peaceful world without this crisis very soon
Have a newfound appreciation for their efforts at staying calm despite being in a foreign place, their willingness to cooperate, on top of all the things they've done to help build SG. Also, thank you to the SG govt for caring for them! We will all pray for this calamity to be over soon so that everyone can stay safe and happy again.
Take care my Tamil brothers. greetings from Karnataka
shout out to my tamil brothers, stay strong
Vishwa ... we praying for you guys ... from Singapore
Ubon Thai let me give u a good piece of advise. Don’t believe western media
This was really well put together guys. Really hope the situation in the dorms gets better over time!!
@Ubon Thai they difference between rich and poor country right ? Showing Delhi comparing with Singapore condition makes no sense ..
Delhi is in India whereas most workers are from Bangladesh
It is good that the Singaporean government is taking care of these foreign workers. Congratulations
I don't know how you guys caught the CCP Virus. And I'm of course very sorry for you all because nobody likes to be sick, whether you are rich or poor! But please don't worry so much! The government is collecting fines from Singaporeans who flout the circuit breaker rules with minimum S$300 fines. Each fine collected would be able to feed one of you guys for at least 3 to 4 weeks! You can also WhatsApp your family back home not to worry from the free WIFI in your dorms! Please take care. After you all have recovered, please go home to your families.
the govt better take care of these foreign workers, after the gov got busted
Well done SG gov for taking care of the locals as well as foreign workers especially our PM Lee who is always there for us .
We will stand united to fight this covid 19. This will pass us in no time
1. Have confidence in our Gov
2. Have confidence in ourselves
3. Help each other
Aiyo heart pain. Eyes got onion. 😢May God protect them and speedy recovery to all those affected. Thank you for all your hard work to make SG a better place to live. God bless ya'll.
The ending was so touching ;(
I cri evri tiem
When we checked in with Pugal today (Sunday), he was still feeling fine. 🤞🤞
CNA Insider that’s good to hear 😌
@@CNAInsider I'm glad he's doing fine
@@CNAInsider thank you for the update!
Hope everyone is safe and those tested positive recover after their treatment.
Prayers to all brothers who were infected. While the rest of the brothers stay safe and be well ❤
Hopefully, Singapore will not forget you, I'm impressed with there PM have always loved Singapore and its people.
Stay Strong, we heal as one. Anyone is one of us while you are here in Singapore, all included from tourist , residents, citizens to workers. We take care of each other here in Singapore . Keep safe and healthy always.
These foreign workers are such genuine people. They have such a grateful spirit and humble attitude. We ought to learn from them
Thank you singapore. This people are able to talk to their family they are blessed .
Take care my brothers. We are all praying for you. Thank you for everything. Stay safe and stay strong!! ❤❤
We have to take care of them. Besides building almost everything in Singapore, we are fellow humans.
Do you know, how many Singaporean don't have a job?.. huh!!!
It's very dificult to fight with covid19
Yea will have retribution if we overlook this
You are very fortunate to have such a good government who can provide you with good basic care. Respect
Thank you for your service to Singapore. We will leave no man behind..
Now we know money don’t mean everything
If have money they don't need go overseas work dirty difficult jobs living in dorms.
So money does mean something
Money is just an earthly essential
Having the love of money is the Root of All Evil
Foeeign workers work hard for the money as their living expenses
They are not running after the money
Money is Not everything!!
It has No Everlasting Value!!!
Of course money isn't everything!
But in many situations, MONEY is the FIRST thing !!
Actually, money does mean a lot of things. For examples, in this virus outbreak, you have money, you can stay at 5-star hotel, instead of cooping up in a small HBD flat with all your family members; you can order food deliver to your doorstep every day; while others have to queue up for takeout, etc etc. I LOVE MONEY
@@southface764 agreed about money, but disagree about 5 star hotel. My HDB is wayyy better than any 5 star hotel and my wife cooks healthy great tasting food, better than any takeaway
These guys deserve the world. Making Singapore what it is right now. Hope each one of them will be okay and well and get through this as one.
The worker at the end said "Who do we blame? You can't blame anybody". Totally agree with what he said. Unlike some of the people I came across online and offline, still possess "blame this, blame that, blame others" attitude, taking things for granted as if the society, the govt, etc., owe them a living. I hope this crisis also teach people moral & civic education, not just personal hygiene.
Well, in this specific case, China is to blame, no?
Cried while watching this. These are the hardworking, innocent workers who would do exactly as we dictate. Nothing more, nothing less. They work the hardest, they earn the least. Just because they were not lucky to be born in Singapore. May God bless them and our Singapore. Stay strong, my little brothers.
So many positive comments ..proves humanity not only exists and but thrives during such difficult times
Let's take care of each other, and we'll get out of this together stronger than ever
I am indonesian,i work in malaysia,and im still in malaysia right now...
Singapore. "You hve a good country 🙇👍"
#respect
they work in singapore and are still in singapore now right? what's the difference?
@@lyhthegreat Malaysia isn't treating foreign workers with such care Singapore provides.
@@gronkmonster224 nonsense
Weight loss fan2020 it's true come to singapore if you dont believe
Lucas Chu recently the Msia government told them to clean their dorm themselves but in Spore they have cleaner to help them clean. Honestly, Spore govn did a lot for them already, but they have to take care of their hygiene themselves too.
I salute them for making our country new all the time!! Thank you so much!
Thank you guys for publishing all these. Makes us Singaporeans feel so blessed we can be with our families at this point. It broke my heart when I heard these foreign workers say one by one their roommates got infected and they are worried the next one is going to be them. Please treat them well because they have never complained about working so hard for us!
One of the sweepers in my neighbourhood never fails to greet everyone in the morning with a genuine smile and recently I have not seen him around anymore. My prayers go out to him and everyone in isolation right now... :'(
Hat off to the Singapore government for handling this latest outbreak. Humane treatment to all their foreign workers. Good job.
Be strong,we all same fight 1 enemy 😭
Do take care all my friends. Remember we are here for a living to our family 👪 at hometown so please appreciate the Singapore government support in our need since day 1 until now..... Million thank to the Singapore government expertly the GOOD HEART PM.... WE LOVE YOU SIR THANK. GOD BLESS YOU 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 AND ALL THE CITIZENS SIR THANK
Wow! How nice to be treated like this, so envy.. huh!
How about our Singaporean???
It is very moving to see the prime minister acknowledging the hard work of foreign workers. He didn't just acknowledge the current workers, but the generations before as well. That is one thing every nation should learn.
The assurance given by Singapore PM is so assuring. I believe if these migrant workers are in other countries, they might not get the kind of assurance that Singapore is giving. For that note, kindness and goodness will come back to Singapore in manifolds! God bless Singapore, the Antioch of Asia. God will restore what Singapore has lost brought about by this pandemic.
Thank you for the kind words... a Singaporean..
Thank you, to the CNA team who put this together, to the workers who helped built our nation, to the people who care about these workers and treat them as one of us... Thank you all.
Kudos to all of them! Without them where are all of our buildings, highways, MRT and even more
Wow!. So many positive comments on this page. Truly inspiring to know we care for each other amidst this challenging time. Thanks, CNA for sharing the dorm story.
Is more like giving them a break. THEY DESERVE THE REST!
Thank u singapore for helping foreign workers to be safe and not worried while they are away of their loved once
Singapore pm has a good heart thank you for your concern goodluck singapore.
This is an interesting insight into the lives of our builders, I think somehow we've all turned a blind eye to them. As long as things get built, we don't ask or look into things like this. But this was a good wake up call for future generations of Singaporeans and builders, to get better facilities and living conditions in one of the best cities in the world. It's not just the Gov that has to do more, but we as Singaporeans need to be more aware and more open about this kinda things :)
Being part of the construction industry, I owe a big thanks to all of them!
Thank you Singapore Govt.How you are managing the people it's really appreciated..💞🙏
Thank you for serving the nation💪 without you guys we will not have hdb.
To the people that contributed so much to our society. Big Thank You to All of You & Please stay safe!
Such a touching and poignant message from LSL.
LHL*
This video make me cried!😭😭 sometimes i can feel in their position. We just hoping to Almighty god to ended covid19. Ameen ya Allah 🙏🏻
Ameen ya rabbul alamin
Thanks to all our Indian friends for being cooperative by staying in your room. Hope all are safe and that those infected will become healthy again. Good to see that govt is helping and the recipients are happy.
Kudos to CNA Insider for this video. At least now we can see that they have a better living condition than in India, albeit a little crammed. Space is limited and expensive in Singapore.
You all must be strong for yourself and your family.... Singaporean are here for you all.. don't worry..加油。。💪💪💪
Hope Pugal remains optimistic and is safe from covid-19. Do keep us posted on how is he :) Thank you for the insightful video!
Thanks Singapore for taking care ....Glad to see that workers are really happy with the support they getting ...great video 👍
Stay strong. Stay careful. The nation's hearts hold out to you.
The sad part is, if we Singaporeans did fully mingle and integrate with them previously as a society, we might be having huge local numbers too! It seems like the discrimination against them has sort of saved all of us from their cases and clusters.
Thanks to Singapore and all the citizens for help us
Thanks bro, we all Singaporean want you to know we all do deeply appreciate you and your fellow members’ hard work and contribution to Singapore 🇸🇬 . We trust our Govt and your employers have heard you and assistance and more care will be on the way. Take care and stay strong 💪
Thank you for making/building Singapore so beautiful! When things get better, we will start all over again. Take good care of yourself! Stay strong! Sgunited ❤️
Well done Singapore. I hope other countries also do their part to take care of migrant workers.
Lol takecare migrant workers only then citizens should scrap aside is it
From the video, it looks clean and tidy, their living condition is almost the same as the hong kong lower-income living condition. These guys are our nation builders. Hope they are all safe and get well soon!
To god be the all glory brother just keep on praying god is always there for us ☝️☝️☝️
I keep hearing people saying the living conditions are bad in the dorms. But looking at it for myself, it is more spacious and have better facilities than my bunk during NS time.
Just only have themselves to blame for not keeping it tidy and de-cluttered, but no RSM to ask them stand by bed what.
But I love how all of them are so positive and YOLO-happy.
That's because those online keyboard warriors and the citizens who dislike our Government like to assume the dormitory space is cramp and many workers squeeze in one small rooms. They love creating all these untrue facts and try to create discord among us all.
So many times better than the cage homes in HongKong. These migrant workers are truly blessed to be in Singapore. And the assurance given by PM Lee adds value to their spirit of keeping hope alive in seeing and reuniting with their families once the pandemic is over. Soldier on, dear friends. Together with your Singaporean friends, the uphill battle can be overcome. God bless.
Yes they are blessed to be here, only if u knew what they really think of us singaporean n our police force.
Jasper JK These dorms have been cleaned up since being gazetted as isolation areas and prepped for broadcast. I am sure there are many other dorms out there in worse conditions.
And no stand by universe and turn out 🤣
A few days ago my teacher was telling us about interviews and how they can ask really difficult questions. And one of the questions the teacher suggested was "If there was only 1 ventilator left and an elderly singaporean man and a young migrant worker both need it, who will you give it to". That question never hit as hard as it is now after watching this video.
Do push up and sit up to make blood circulate smoothly to prevent nausea due to stay-in.
Thank you for ur kindness and being responsible for all the FW god bless TO ALL OF US.
Thank you so much for contributing to Singapore and help us to build up our nation! Please take care and stay safe. We will stay as one Singapore to fight this virus together!
加油!
😢Ya Allah i hopefully all guys be patient Allah will protect you🤲🤲🤲🤲
Inshaallah🤲
I really felt very sad about seeing the video. I wish we get through this tough time at the earliest. thanks much to CNA for bringing the inside story. Prayers with all. Stay healthy. Stay safe.
SG foreign workers are definitely in the minds and attention of Singapore (good to see initiatives by the Govt). Continue your strong spirit, perseverance and discipline .. keep faith in the process and hopefully the situation will ease soon.
Updates on Pugal please! sending love faith and hope to all the workers!!
CNA replied 2hr ago saying that Pugal is still doing fine now
Update 14/4: We've had unfortunate news from Pugal. He's tested positive for COVID19 and been hospitalised.
@@CNAInsider Oh no, please send our regards over to him! He will conquer this! Stay strong and be praying for everyone!!
@@CNAInsider 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔hope he get well soon
I won't complain anymore about being quarantined at home with the luxury of my bed, tv, fast internet, free flow food, clean water. If they say 'boring no problem' as long as they're protected from the virus, then I say so too. I hope we are all in good health
Respect you guys!!! Singaporean, take an example from them, listening to the singapore law and not scared of boredom but life and their family life wherea Singaporean here all stubborn and complaining about boredom. Pls la think that others life is much more worse than you but they are grateful. I'm sad. I pray that Singapore will be even together and strong as a nation. Amminn❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can you show us the car park used to shelter them too?
A big THANK YOU to all the migrant workers!!!
if all government in the world is like singapore there will always be lucky foreign workers... i am not working in singapore but i visited it thrice... singaporeans are the nicest people so trusting and very kind... i love singapore so much...
God bless you guys...stay strong...nothing happen to good people...god promise...Singapore will never forget u guys for all your contribution to Singapore...tc thanks🙏
