As some of you may know, Singapore recently recorded its highest spike in Covid-19 cases attributed to foreigners living and working there. Currently, the country records 8,014 positive Covid-19 patients and 11 deaths and the numbers don’t look like they’re slowing down.

As of 19th April, 505 of the 596 new cases reported are Work Permit holders residing in foreign dormitories. Since this discovery, many have been speculating what will be done to this group in order to curb the spread of the virus among our neighbours on the other side of the Causeway.

While some of us may be in the comfort of our homes with our families, many of our foreign workers are battling fear of the unknown and isolation in the dormitories.Sometimes, all it takes when you are going through a crisis is for someone to assure you that they know what you are going through and are “here for you”. And that’s what our doctors and our medical team are doing at the dorms during this tumultuous period – not just to provide medical care but also reassurance and consolation to these foreign workers.We share with you this video of one of our doctors addressing the Bangladeshi foreign workers at the dormitory.A translation of his heartfelt message in English is provided below. It tugged at our heartstrings and we hope the workers felt it too. Stay home. Keep safe. ❤️ #SGUnited———————-??? ? ℎ??? ???? ????????? ??????? ? ?? ??. ???????? ???? ???????? ??????? ???????? ??? ? ?? ℎ??? ???ℎ ???? ?? ?? ?????????? ?? ???? ????? ???? ?????????. ?? ??????, ?? ??? ?? ???????.?? ??? ??? ????, ?ℎ??? ?? ? ??????? ?????? ?? ?ℎ? ??????????? ????????? ??? ?????? ?ℎ? ?????. ?????????????, ?? ℎ?? ???? ?? ???? ????? ???. ?ℎ???? ??? ?? ??????? ? ???? ???? ??? ?ℎ?? ?ℎ??? ?? ???ℎ??? ?? ?? ?????? ?? ?? ?? ??? ??????? ℎ??? ??? ??? ???. ?? ???? ?? ?????? ???? ?? ???? ℎ????ℎ.???, ?ℎ??? ??? ???? ?ℎ???? ??? ??? ?? ?ℎ??ℎ ???? ??????? ???ℎ ??? ??? ??. ????? ??? ???????? ?????? ?????? ?ℎ? ????? ????????:1: ?????? ???? ???? ????.2: ?????? ???? ?? ???? ????? ?? ??? ????? ??? ?????? ?? ??? ?? ?? ??ℎ?? ????? ?? ??ℎ?? ??????.3: ?????? ???? ???? ???????????? ?????. ???? ???? ???? ?????.4: ???ℎ ???? ℎ???? ???ℎ ???? ?? ???? ????? ?? ????????, ?? ????? 4 ?? 5 ????? ? ???.5: ?ℎ??? ?ℎ? ??? ???????? ??? ?ℎ??? ????? ???????, ?ℎ?? ?? ???? ?? ??????????? ?? ???ℎ ???? ℎ???? ??? ???? ???? ?? ?????????? ?? ????????. ?ℎ?? ??????? ?? ?????? ?? ??? ?????????.??????????? ??????? ?ℎ? ??? ?? ???ℎ? ?ℎ?? ???????. ??? ?ℎ??? ????? ???? ???? ??? ???? ???? ?ℎ? ?????????.?? ??? ???? ??????, ?????? ?????? ?ℎ? ??????? ?? ?ℎ? ??????? ??????. ?? ??? ?? ?????? ??? ℎ??? ?ℎ???? ?? ?? ??? ℎ??? ?? ℎ??? ???. ?? ???? ???? ???? ?? ???. ??? ℎ??? ???? ???? ???? ??? ?????????, ??? ℎ??? ????? ?ℎ? ????????? ?? ???? ??, ??? ℎ??? ????? ?ℎ? ????? ?? ?????? ????, ???? ???????????? ?? ????????? ?? ????????. ??? ??? ??? ?? ?? ??? ?? ???? ???? ???? ?? ???. ?? ??????, ?? ?????????, ????? ???? ???? ?????. ?? ??? ℎ??? ??? ???. ???????? ??????? ???????? ?? ℎ??? ??? ???.?ℎ??? ???!

But it’s heartwarming to know that they don’t have to worry as healthcare professionals from Sengkang General Hospital have personally taken it upon themselves to reassure these workers that they are in good hands.

“As you all know, there is a massive spread of the Coronavirus infection all around the world. Unfortunately, it has come to your dorms too. Should you be afraid? I will tell you that there is nothing to be afraid of as we are already here for you all. We will be taking care of your health,” said Dr. Muntasir, one of the few doctors who visited the dormitory in a video posted on the hospital’s Facebook page.

Decked out in full PPE attire while holding a megaphone, the medical professional gave a heartfelt speech in Bengali to residents of the infected dormitories while urging them to follow strict rules such as wearing masks, maintaining personal hygiene and social distancing.

He went on to assure these workers that they are valued and cared for in Singapore’s eyes: “You have done your part for Singapore, you have built the buildings we live in, you have built the roads we travel upon, your contribution to Singapore is enormous. You are one of us and we will take care of you,” said the grateful doctor.

The medical professional then ended his speech with a word of encouragement for these foreigners to stay strong, “Be strong, be confident, drive away your fears. We are here for you.” 
Singapore isn’t the only country that depends on foreign workers to tackle gritty work such as road paving and construction. If Malaysia is looking to learn from the way our neighbours are handling the foreign worker cluster, we should also think about treating them with the respect they deserve.
