AS stay-at-home orders multiply and extend, and public health experts urge everyone to stop doing all but essential outside tasks in order to flatten the curve of coronavirus infections, the home has become the new locus of nearly everything.
It’s your office, gym, restaurant, bar, cinema and social club.
Everyone who is lucky enough to have a house or apartment is there nearly all the time or should be. That means spending a lot more time with the people inside it or alone.
Having a house with balcony gives a sense of serenity and feel of being outdoor after losing some form of control of their normal life.
Malaysians, too, should just remain at home, enjoying the view from the balcony to ensure Covid-19 ends soon. – April 14, 2020.
