OTT
In 2020, the number of subscriptions for video-on-demand platforms reached 57 million, according to a report by Media Partners Asia. By the end of this year, the number of video OTT subscriptions will reach 89 million.
WFH(Work From Home)
The COVID-19 pandemic has altered every aspect of our work and life. In response to the national and local containment policies, companies, organizations and institutions encouraged their employees to work remotely at home to stay safe.
Work from home (WFH) emerged in the early 2000s when telecommuting technologies started to develop and workers could WFH to avoid commuting, provide flexibility in schedules, and achieve a better work-life balance. During the COVID-19 pandemic, many workers were advised to WFH full time, which redefined the conventional concept of WFH that was typical only for certain types of work, on an occasional basis, or given unique employee circumstances.
Many companies believe that WFH will become more common after the pandemic due to the fact that employers have already paid the fixed cost to set up remote work systems for their employees. Companies are now determining if operational costs could be dramatically decreased by reducing the required office space.
Online Class
The online survey conducted by Learning Spiral showed that children faced a combination of issues in accessing education digitally.
The dominant mode of delivering education is WhatsApp which is used by 75% followed by phone calls between the teacher and the student which is 38%. The private schools have ‘delivered’ education, with their dependence on WhatsApp as the primary mode of delivery.
In addition to the pedagogical issues with the use of WhatsApp, access continues to be an issue – Over 75% of children reported a host of challenges to access education digitally including not having an internet connection, being unable to afford data, Internet speed/signal is not conducive.
The students have reported internet speed and signal as the main hindrances in accessing online learning. Despite challenges in accessing education digitally, not a single instance of education through non-digital mediums was reported.
Due to the continued reliance on digital modes and the interrupted access to education, it is estimated that children from disadvantaged backgrounds will lose almost 40% of their previous year’s learning. 3 out of every 4 students faced challenges to access education.

Do not share: Keep your plates, glasses, cups, spoons, towels, and bedding separate. Do not swap any of these items unwashed.
Frequent hand washing is a must: Hygiene is a very integral part of a quarantine. Wash your hands for twenty seconds with soap and water frequently. Use your elbow to cough or sneeze into or use a tissue and immediately throw it in a covered dustbin.
Stay calm: While it is natural to feel anxious and scared, being educated about your situation is a great way to combat anxiety.
