What country is that? Is everything government owned? Because how can a landlord possibly manage that? And why is the landlord the one asked to help the tenant, isn't that the job of government?

Suspension of mortgage would help the landlord not the renter. The owner/landlord pays the mortgage not the tenant, the tenant pays rent to the landlord.
