A weekly visit for Zulkifli, 75, who lives alone in Depok

An hour a week, a chat, and a cup of tea - that's all Zulkifli is asking for.

Depok
I'm writing for my neighbor Zulkifli, who's 75. Zulkifli lives alone in Depok, and lost a son last year. The nearest family lives 605 kilometers away. Zulkifli loves cricket, and would enjoy someone to chat with. An hour a week, perhaps on Monday afternoon, would mean the world. We can also arrange a phone call if you can't visit in person. All visitors will be introduced by me and I'll be there at the first meeting. I'll share references and, if you'd like, a short orientation from the local befriending charity. No special skills are needed - just kindness and patience. I hope life is good to you.

    Great help in a difficult time

    I was going through a tough time and this person's support was invaluable. They didn't judge, just helped. That kind of genuine compassion is rare these days.
