The US Agency for International Development (USAID) with the US Embassy, has released a song titled Joy Hobe to recognise and thank
frontline workers providing essential services
in the Covid-19 pandemic.
Since the outbreak of the virus in March, Bangladeshi frontline workers have been working tirelessly around the clock and risking their own lives, helping people stay home and prevent the spread of Covid-19. This USAID funded initiative was undertaken by ABC Radio (FM 89.6) as
a tribute to these real-life superheroes, said
a statement issued by the Embassy.
The song was sung by prominent musician Fuad Al Muqtadir and also featured a group of talented young Bangladeshi singers, including Zohad, Elita, Xefer, Rafa, Tashfee, Palbasha, Emil, and
Issa (Farooque Bhai Project).
The video for the song was filmed by the singers themselves from their homes as they do their part to practice social distancing to help prevent the spread of Covid-19, said the press release.
