The coronavirus outbreak brought the world to a standstill as each individual struggles in his or her respective situations. The effects of the pandemic are substantial, as it does not only alter the condition of our personal livelihood and economy.
It is the primary cause of the extensive anxieties of every citizen and resident in the country. These anxieties are the combined results of the fear of contracting the coronavirus disease and the shortage of food leading to starvation and malnutrition.
Many of our fellow Kabayans in Kuwait experienced the same critical situation of hunger and uneasiness within the four corners of their rooms. They continue to wait for the implemented lockdown measures to be lifted without a penny in their pocket due to the “No Work, No Pay” circumstances. It is at these moments where every struggling person needs our respective emotional support and help resources to survive this health crisis.
For my fellow OFWs and Kabayan in Kuwait, the following contact numbers and their official accounts that one may contact for their specific needs are stated below. Do not hesitate to ask for help within these organizations, for they are willing to provide support and assistance to all.
