But they seem to pale in comparison when likened with the spread and impact of the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19).<br \/>\nMillions of people are working from home, thousands of our community members are infected with the virus, our children are adjusting to home-based learning, and once customary gatherings and personal interactions are no longer considered safe. To put simply, our lives have been turned upside down by COVID-19.<br \/>\nThe rapidly evolving pandemic has also caused many people to be displaced from their homes \u2013 they may be frontline workers struggling with long daily commute or facing discrimination especially if they are renters, foreign workers impacted by cross-border lockdowns or tourists who are unable to return to their home countries due to travel bans, just to name a few.<br \/>\nThis coupled with factors like job losses, social distancing and unfortunate biases have triggered homelessness in the short-term for many in Singapore and across the region, and various people have reached out to us to lend a hand.<br \/>\nBecause, at PropertyGuru, we believe that every person \u2013 no matter what their circumstance \u2013 should have a place to call home, we are canvassing support from kind-hearted individuals and organisations to help our fellowmen and women in need, across the region.<\/p>\n<p>If you are able to\u00a0#LendASpace\u00a0in Singapore, please reach out to us\u00a0here.<br \/>\nIf you, or someone you know, can\u00a0#LendASpace\u00a0in\u00a0Malaysia,\u00a0Thailand\u00a0or\u00a0Indonesia, please complete the hyperlinked form under the respective market.<\/p>\n<p>If you, or someone you know,\u00a0#NeedASpace\u00a0to stay in temporarily in Singapore, please reach out to us\u00a0here.<br \/>\nIf you, or someone you know,\u00a0#NeedASpace\u00a0to stay in temporarily in Malaysia,\u00a0Thailand\u00a0or\u00a0Indonesia, please complete the hyperlinked form under the respective market.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : proppertyguru.com.sg\/Property Market&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertyguru.com.sg\/property-management-news\/2020\/4\/187888\/property-management-news-20204187882-helping-those-affected-by-covid-19\" target=\"_blank\">Helping Those Affected By COVID-19<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; In the last quarter of a century, Southeast Asia \u2013 including Singapore \u2013 has seen&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":115921,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-115920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/PG_Lend_KV_White-300x300.jpg?fit=300%2C300&ssl=1","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-u9G","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":114541,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/covid-19-outbreak-singapore-economy-to-contract-0-6-in-q1\/","url_meta":{"origin":115920,"position":0},"title":"COVID-19 Outbreak: Singapore economy to contract 0.6% in Q1","date":"February 26, 2020","format":false,"excerpt":"\r A major trade partner with China, the city-state\u2019s economy is expected to contract 0.6% in the first quarter of 2020 \u2013 a first since the 2009 recession following the global financial crisis.
