It seems as though the problems of Muslims are more visible than those of other nations in the country, mainly due to poverty and lack of education. There is no precedent for the number of people who have lost their jobs in two years and the number of households whose stoves have gone cold. Thousands of people have lost their jobs not only in government institutions but also in government sectors due to government policies. From above, those who protest after losing their jobs are beaten with sticks. People are saying that the economy is being affected by Corona, but the fact is that long before Corona, the economy was in a downward spiral
