The Indonesian Embassy in Bratislava handed out the second phase of relief packages to Indonesians, reeling from the impact of the new coronavirus pandemic in Slovakia. The relief packages, comprising rice, instant noodles, sugar, cooking oil, egg, canned food, and masks, were handed out to 15 Indonesians constituting 12 migrant workers, and three students partaking in the student exchange program, the embassy noted in a written statement released on Saturday. The aid was offered to ensure that the Indonesians have sufficient food stocks during the COVID-pandemic, especially during the current holy month of Ramadhan, according to the embassy as quoted by Antara. The Slovak government continues to enforce a lockdown policy, to stem the spread of the new coronavirus that has disrupted most economic activities in the country. Furthermore, the embassy has helped to repatriate 10 Indonesians. In the near future, the embassy will also help repatriate three other Indonesians studying at a local university//Ant
