Economic Recovery Plan :
Powering Up the Industry
[ Session held on 11 June 2020 ]
The Government’s short-term Economic Recovery Plan, which was annonunced by the Prime Minister Yang Amat Berhormat Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin on May, 5th 2020 is to address the fiscal challenges brought forth by the COVID-19 pandemic and the implementation of Movement Control Order (MCO) and Conditional MCO.
With the theme “Bersama Menjana Ekonomi”, the announcement speaks volumes of the Government’s commitment to protect businesses and individuals of all socioeconomic status. We believe that these measures will play a key role in reforming the economic standing of all industries by encouraging consumption as well as spending, and at the same time boosting employment.
However, are the initiatives granted for the property industry suffice? Can they help ease the burden of homeownership faced by the rakyat?
Let’s hear the views from our industry experts on the Economic Recovery Plan, will it able to Power Up the Industry?
