Covid-19 Behind the Scene

Covid-19 has been a disaster all around the world. Some say that we are in the same boat but unfortunately we are not. Different families have different situation. This pandemic have caused many bankruptcy in companies which leads to firing employees because they couldn't pay their workers and this happens to workers who are in a higher position because their salary is high and company failed to pay. 

Similar situation happened to one of my friend who is currently working in Bangsar. She lives in a family of five. Her father was fired from his company because of the companies bankruptcy and my friend who is the elder siblings starts working to bare her family. Since her father was earning more than RM6,000 a month, her whole family was depending on him and when he lose his job, their family literally shattered because she have two younger brothers who are studying in University. My friend, she had no choice but to drop her studies in order to support her family. Her mother starts doing business and the money she earns only contribute to pay the car money. From a well doing family, her family turned upside down due to this pandemic. 

This happens to many families out there, just imagine the poor community, how would they survive during this pandemic? All we can do is to have precautions of what we are going to do for our living. Living a life with more expenses than our salary can brings you difficulty.
