Panel Discussion on The Impact of COVID-19 on GDP
The Impact of COVID-19 on GDP – There is a warning coming from the private sector that if we are not disciplined as a people, the recovery of the economy will be jeopardized and it will be the average workers and micro and small businesses that are the most vulnerable.
