Kerala floods: Gulf countries come to the aid of flood-affected state

[Corona]

Wish u best of luck, just don't get lynch their in kerala. There are plenty of hindus in india who hate muslims to the core of their heart and lynch them on regular basis, you will be considered an outsider religious missionary who support local muslims against hindu dominance, thats how they really think.

Religion is the one thing Keralites don't discriminate on.
You're more likely to get lynched in Kerala for supporting the wrong football team. My advice is to go with the German team. Everybody loves the Germans.

German football is my love since childhood. I know Kerala and south is different from rest of north but yet kerala and north are the part of same country and a country works as a unit and considered as a unit. You cannot deny by saying that problems in north are not the problem of south until they are part of same country.

Condolence to the people of Kerala, Pakistan should also offer humanitarian assistance.

There is a problem. Not denying that.
One dead human is one too many. But it doesn't mean everyone is out with pitchforks for some good ol religious cleansing either. The mobs are in extreme minority, isolated and always on the fringes of society.

So you are saying the people of Khairu Allah which later became called Kerala are your Enemy?
Many of those people are innocent Muslims who have nothing to do with your stupid conflict with India.
Arabs will continue to stand by those who are in need and are facing disasters whether they are in Kerala or any where else. For centuries, Arabs have traded with people of Kerala and will continue to do so. Even when Pakistan was affected by an earthquake in 2008, Saudi Arabia announced a huge public campaign to collect aid for the affected families, schools and houses in Pakistan.

Kerala is a nice place inhabited with such a wonderful and friendly people,

InShAllah one day I will travel there.

GCC is the second home of our peoples.
Thank you so much Arab friends .

Latest news is that Qatar Amir His Highness Hamad Al Thani also giving 5 million $ for our people .

GCC has contributed faster than Modi. Who cares about Modi ? Modi is not relevent here. It's about people to people relation between Kerala and GCC.

Disagree .
Because Qatar Emir contacted our President and Prime Minister after he announced the relief fund not Kerala state leaders .
We Keralites have special bond with our brothers in GCC but our Indian pass port gives more respect and power to that bond .
We all are Indians.

Indians hate Arabs


He doesn't know what Indians think of his kind

You dont need to teach us what we thinks about our Arabs friends .
Because relation with Arabs and Kerala has a history of thousand of years

Indians hate Arabs

No buddy. We only hate pseudo-arabs. And I guess you know pretty well who they are. LOL

Kerala forms a major core of the labour force in West Asian countries, thanks to a more than 50-year-old migration history, one of the oldest and longest migration patterns in India

In the hour of crisis, Gulf countries have united to help flood-hit Keralites. Kerala forms a major core of the labour force in West Asian countries, thanks to a more than 50-year-old migration history, one of the oldest and longest migration patterns in India.

Sharjah ruler Sultan bin Muhammad Al-Qasimi donated Rs 4 crore to help Kerala on Saturday. The United Arab Emirates have also promised significant help, according to a senior state government official, requesting anonymity. Hundreds of Malayalee associations in the Gulf countries, from church prayer groups to arts and cultural outfits, have also united to raise funds. Easily Rs 100 crore is expected, said the official.

“The people of Kerala have always been and are still part of our success story in the UAE. We have a special responsibility to help and support those affected, especially during this holy and blessed days,” UAE president H H Shiekh Muhammad said on Twitter Friday night.



The Newsminute reported that the President of UAE, Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, has ordered the formation of an emergency committee, headed by Sheikh Mohammed, to look into providing relief assistance to people affected by floods in Kerala.

About 10% of Kerala’s population of over 30 million does not live in the state. Every third house in Kerala has a man working in the Gulf, which could mean Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Kuwait, Qatar, Oman or Bahrain.

Every year, they send home more than Rs 1 trillion, according to data from banks in the state. Remittances form almost a third of Kerala’s net state domestic product of about Rs 3 trillion, according to the state’s latest economic review.

So the Muslims comes to Hindutva rescue?
Raam raam..the arabs eat beef, why accept their rescue money?

Lol we here In Kerala probably eat more beef than the Arabs.
The Arab countries and Kerala had been engaged in trade for atleast a 1000 years.

People are really suffering here, any sort of help will be really helpful. Even my cousin's house got submerged in 6 feet of water. They lost everything. It's quite sad

From where did you get this story. Kerala got its name long before Islam was born.

One popular theory derives Kerala from Kera ("coconut tree" in Malayalam) and alam ("land"); thus "land of coconuts", which is a nickname for the state, used by locals, due to abundance of coconut trees.

The word Kerala is first recorded as Keralaputra in a 3rd-century BCE rock inscription left by the Maurya emperor Ashoka (274–237 BCE), one of his edicts pertaining to welfare. The inscription refers to the local ruler as Keralaputra (Sanskrit for "son of Kerala"); or "son of Chera".

This contradicts the theory that Kera is from "coconut tree". At that time, one of three states in the region was called Cheralam in Classical Tamil: Chera and Kera are variants of the same word. The word Cheral refers to the oldest known dynasty of Kerala kings and is derived from the Proto-Tamil-Malayalam word for "lake".

The earliest Sanskrit text to mention Kerala is the Aitareya Aranyaka of the Rigveda. Kerala is also mentioned in the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, the two Hindu epics. The Skanda Purana mentions the ecclesiastical office of the Thachudaya Kaimal who is referred to as Manikkam Keralar, synonymous with the deity of the Koodalmanikyam temple.

Keralam may stem from the Classical Tamil cherive-alam ("declivity of a hill or a mountain slope") or chera alam ("Land of the Cheras").

The Greco-Roman trade map Periplus Maris Erythraei refers to Keralaputra as Celobotra.

No, you need to get out of this religious binoculars your using to look at the world. They are Arabs who prefer India and Indians to Pakistan. Get used to that. Similiar to how Tajiks of Afghanistan love India. The fact that they are brown, Muslim, like meat, like milk or like sufi music etc etc etc is not relevant.

On the contrary Chinese who are athiests on steriods, Turks who are uber-secularists support give priorty to Pakistan over India. This should teach to look beyond your self inflicted simplistic 'Muslim' view of the world.

You nailed it man,you nailed it,excellent! People (Indians & Pakistanis) are often to immature, they see everything through the angle of religion or ethnicity, and over generalize things. Internation relations dont work that way.
