- Even in the month of fasting, Muslim migrant workers get up at 4.30am to prepare for the long, hard day of work building Singapore. This is the life of one construction worker during Ramadan - of the sacrifices made, and the support received.

Omg this guy here is awesome, he use to speak bad English and gets judge for and now he speaks several languages
Tell me about it. It’s easy to judge people for not knowing English but I’ve been living in Quebec for almost a decade now and French is still so foreign to me. It’s not easy to be multilingual but look at these guys...truly commendable.
A big thank you to all foreign workers contributing to our country! Sincerely appreciated!
thanks for the appreciation they really deserve it
Daniel with a big heart... 👍
@@mswimboo as a sporean myself, a lot of people here still tend to look down at these workers
@Alex Lawrence Nah boi im coming there to Study International relations and foreign policy might become an ambassador of your country on day dont worry bro i serve like its my own :-)
Daniel Ang Well said! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I cried watching this. I keep complaining I'm too tired to do excessive works. I'm watching this while on my bed eating burger. Watching this has opened up my eyes. They're fasting yet still hardworking. Gone back from work and straight away cook for sahur. And God, the dishes are not easy to cook. I'm a Muslim myself and working but I CANNOT DO THAT. I will come back home and sleep la after work for long hours. These guys are amazing and hardworking. And Kadir, he is such a sweet and caring guy.
THis also shows me that you can never judge a person without knowing them. This proves wrong the notion of our society that immigrants are bad and dirty.
God. Thank you CNA Insider. Why havent I found this channel earlier.
It's made me realise how hard these guys work and you no what it is due to these guys barakah that even us fellow Muslims living in other countries prosper these people are pious and steadfast on Deen
five fingers are not same in your Hand ?
Why haven't you found the channel or the video?
shut up

I’m so touched when he said he misses his mother cookings. Only Allah knows how painful it is to be far away from your family. He’s a strong man. I salute all of them for being so far away from home & is still happy in Singapore despite the hurdles & challenges they faces. I just hope some people will learn to appreciate them more, by the simplest thing and that’s giving a smile.
stop talking about the false prophet.
Ashutosh Khantwal you guys worship cows not sure why you are talking
@@lordfarquad6918 u guys got 72 virgins with yourself in heaven what about that? Flat Earth dickheads🤣
@@AshutoshKhantwal93 stop worshipping cows
Cyka blyat that Hadith isn’t reliable. We don’t believe earth is flat like you
"...you one hand don't have, can easily marry or not? cannot right?" 😂 Kadir seems like a great guy, willing to learn, the kind of hardworking workers we need in Singapore. May this Ramadan be smooth sailing for all of them! 😁
That's typical Singaporean accent i guess!
it is very heartening to see we treat migrant workers with dignity and respect. In our fast pace society, we tend to forget things. Well done , CNA. I believe there are more such acts that actually makes you feel ..Singapore and Singaporean are actually great people.
Focus on the good , hope it will lessen the bad :)
thomas samson especially in Dubai
Mohammed Hasan yes really sad how they treat migrant workers in dubai. that rich country was built by those workers but they live in unhumane conditions
May Allah bless all of them with happyness rizq health and baraqah in their life
@@mohammedhasan9770 yes. even a malay, indonesian or phillippines are treasted the same way over there. if you ain't white, you're gonna be treated like that in any foreign rich country.
This is something Malaysian employers should learn from Singaporeans!
Kadir seems like a good muslim man...growing beard, talk softly, help others for cooking..
Mau Allah grant him Jannah... Aamiin...
Amin.
Such a hard life yet they still have a smile on their face.
As a Project Engineer, I've found more respect, trust and humility working with my electrical team which consist of Indians and Bangladeshi than having worked with Singaporeans who are lazy and greedy.
Those working in Engineering/Construction, we know the real deal these people went through in order to provide for their family back home. I hope all people after reading this, to take a time to say hi, start a brief conversation or even buy them drinks or snacks for them to share with.
A simple kind gesture at no cost will make them feel happy and appreciative.
Hii bro .i am from India. Working as electrical supervisor in my native place. Can you please help me to get any electrical job .
Overwhelmed to see this man from my country doing all these hard works with smile in his face all the time. May Allah bless him, grants his prayers. Respect from Bangladesh
Inshallah
Thankyou Singapore for taking care of my muslim brothers and sisters

salaam from your brother from Albania. May Allah(swt) unite the ummah. Kareem Ramadan.
Eyes Are flooding with tears,,,This guys Made Bangladesh this far..HUGE RESPECT TO REMITTANCE WARRIORS BANGLADESH
Qatar could really use some lessons for treating migrant workers from Singapore. Singapore is both rich and moral.
Have you ever been in Qatar?
Work from 4am - 9pm ever day, What to learn you rat idiot?
yeah middle east should learn from Singapore
@@ubermensche60 thank you so much for having a very negative perspective about gulf countries.
@@hamaduddin4210 You're thanking me? bro, you should be scared about it. You know shits messed up when even your own muslim brothers disown you.
I am crying. Thank you Singapore and other people who support and help my muslim brothers there! Thank you💛
this video makes me cry... theyre my brothers from my country ... people who live with in the country will never understands their struggle.. lots of love and repect to them ... I'm a Bangladeshi and proud to be these Migrants Countrymen
Singapore treat their migrant workers better than middle eastern countries.
Just goes to show when u treat people with respect, you get respect back and the workers work twice as hard to fulfil their duties.
Well done Singapore.
This is not true . Where did you get your statement ? Singapore treat their foreign workers in the same way Arab counties does. However , they are not migrant .. they are foreign workers. They don’t get any rights in Singapore. They get hired by company and they become slave of companies. Very poor lives. Sad part, their salary is very poor. A Singaporean citizen will never work for the salary.
How can bangladesh people easy to learn other languages...many country in asia have a immigrant worker from bangla....they are genius and fast learner
yes bro i have learned german on 2 months. Now i can speak fluently Deutsch. I am from Bangladesh
@@tushonkhan5150 bro can you direct me how or from where to start learning Deutsch. I want to learn fast.
Language learning is not about genius. Our mother tongue Bangla is so rich with accent that we can pronounce other languages easily. And fast learning is other thing, you have to remain raw as child and interact with soil and water to make your brain garbage free.
@@sajibsjb i learned from the goethe-institut
Hy bro don't call us bangla.. we are bangladeshi... Give us respect and take respect.. I. Am from Malaysia University of Nottingham
Impressed. Happy to know and glad to see they live here with all the facilities provided for them. They working here happily.

i find that muslim attitude differ so greatly across countries but those who are widely expose to diverse cultures enhance themselves so efficiently and profoundly.
I'm really impressed, he faced Singapore in condition he didnt have any idea how is it work in Singapore, and never learnt about mandarin. But his eagerness brings him ahead. Thank you CNA, this is a great story!
We are forever indebted to these special people for building our infrastructures. I wish them a good rest day on our National Day. May God bless them.
I am a Bangladeshi and I am also a resident. I work in Kuwait. And as a Bangladeshi I am proud of the expatriates of my country because the expatriates are the main source of our country's income.❤
may Allah bless all hardworking bangladeshi. I have seen many good and pious persons especially on Jumuah prayers
@@aqidahukm Thanks Sister. Where are you from?

They sleep 5 hours a day and I’m here complaining if I don’t get 7/8 hours
Salamu alaikum my Muslim family, May Allah bless you all and make your life easier. Love, from New York
Bangladeshi people mostly good lots of love from kashmir

They left their families back home. I can't imagine being in Ramadan without my family. May Allah blessed all the foreign workers everywhere
Respect! Thank you for all the contributions and sacrifices made to help Singapore progress 🙏🏼
Kudos to all those migrant workers who is making an honest living despite all the hardships.
This is such a beautiful documentary to watch. Im working in singapore too n to be honest Singapore is a muslim friendly country n they are nice too. Thumb up 👍🏻
Great to see them in high spirits despite the hardship they go thru esp during Ramadhan. Great attitude, great support frm management & great coverage. Salute!!
Very insightful! Please make more videos like this CNA!
There are from Bangladesh ,.That's why they are so good 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I'm grateful for them. Imagine if we don't have them we won't have good roads, nice buildings, proper housing and many more.
I feel they are the people that their jobs are very tough, away from family kids parents, working long hours under the sun, have to wake up early or work late to finish projects and it's all because of us Singaporeans.
My heart goes out to them. May God bless and watch over them. Most importantly be safe :)
HE IS SO ADORABLE! He really has a good heart I hope Allah eases his endeavors Aamiin 💕

Great Respect for my Fellow Brothers and Sisters.
May Allah Bless you all and Give you more strength.
they are the real fighter of bangladesh, im proud of my brother , love n respect from dubai
Its always pleasure to work with Singaporean. In my 10 years experience boss scolded me one time also with smile. Still have very little discrimination in bus and train. But we understand because we know our inside nonsenses. I personally belive singapore will rule the world because of the law is based on humanity.
ive been binge watching cna insider and i just realised how much i love this channel and the content they put out. Keep up the good work!!
May Allah bless my hardworking bengali brothers and sisters away from friends and relatives working so hard such a tough life i hope the family back home appreciate them for this and take care of them later in life
we Bangladeshis may be poor but we have alot of passion for
Islam.thats why the country is running well alhamdulillah
Being poor isn't a crime brother I am not Bangladeshi but want to tell you biggest wealth is emaan and faith not money. If you read history all great men of God like prophets and saints were poor and lived in poverty while satanic kings who rebelled and denied God were very wealth they lived their lives full of pomp an show by fulfilling all lusts and desires.. This is why the prophet Mohammed PBUH has said "this world is hell for believers and heaven for unbelievers." And "poverty is my pride.".. Prophet Mohammed PBUH
Mashallah Bangladeshis have lots of passion for Islam I’m a Muslim and I’m from Egypt I studied in the al azhar university Islamic and now I have master degree in Islamic studies I went to work in Dubai as a bathroom cleaner in the hotels and restaurants and now I’m a manager at a restaurant I was passion and liked my faith and I started with a bad job but now alhamdulilah allah gave me a good job I haven’t seen my family for 6 years and alhamdulilah in one month I will see my family
watching this makes me burst into tears inside my heart,there's lots of foreigners workers here in Malaysia,but we will always downgrade them,respect to all workers willing to work for Malaysia!!may Allah bless all of you.
May allah make it easier for everyone during this ramadan. Ameen
May Allah bless these men. Such hard work. I can’t complain at ALL
I come and watch this every ramadan..it would great to get an update
Love from your homeland,brothers! 😍 i know how it feels to be away from home in ramadan..bt can't imagine how hard it is for u to work all day long..may Allah SWT bless u all!
So to my dear singaporeans, its time for us to give these hardworking workers more respect for what they’ve done for our country. 💐
❤️
I really appreciate people like you for not judging us muslims and understanding those who are in pain...
People label these people as terrorists but you can see for yourself...
Subhanallah. Money is not the key to happiness. Allah and Islam is what makes these people smile everyday, knowing that this life is just a test and that there is better to come.
Love & respect from Indonesia to to CNA Insider team . Thanks for the great content & story, all your videos gave me inside sights i had never thought about. I wish you all good health & prosperity, aamiin.

Reciting Ayatul Kursy Brothers and Sisters is a great help, it will protect you while working. My left foot was fractured, supposed to be will be operated by a Doctor but by reciting Ayatul Kursy every night and wherever I go or whatever I do and after I attended Jum'ah twice then my fractured foot is healed and I can walk again without undergoing an operation. Alhamdulillah! ALLAH is VERY MERCIFUL!
This is how beautiful my religion is
this video was so good, singaporean residents are very gracious
Nothing to do with Singaporeano lol they were paid to do that work and company help them provided food plus they get salary

Looking forward to part 2! 👍🏼
I’ve been learning chinese for about 10 years from k1 to sec 2...i only know how to count from 1 to 10 and how to write down my name. This guy is middle aged and from an entirely different culture and background yet it only took 2 months for him to speak simple sentences even without the proper teachers and learning environment. Really shows you how far your hunger for knowledge can bring you.
One man was Bangladeshi and speaking Bengali. I could understand him.
