Philippines is a lil' bit better in Fighting Covid-19 Crisis - Fitch Solutions

Nagpahayag ng magandang perspektibo ang Head of Asia ng Fitch Solutions na si Anwita Basu sa kalagayan ng ekonomiya ng Pilipinas sa gitna ng paglaban nito sa coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) outbreak.


“The Philippines is a little bit better off compared to others just because there were measures put in place pretty early on, so I’m thinking Indonesia which really didn’t put those measures in place and now it’s got a pretty staggering number of not only cases but deaths.
The Philippines, in the context of the financial market, is still doing quite well. We haven’t seen the impact of the Luzon shutdown yet. Right now, we are expecting the Philippines to grow by 4%.

“The Philippines, once most of this is over, will be able to recover at a much faster rate than many other ASEAN countries,” sabi ni Basu.

Ang numero ng mga naitalang nagkaroon ng covid-19 sa Pilipinas ay umakyat nitong unang bahagi ng Marso. Ilan sa mga ginawa ng pamahalaan para malabanan ang mabilis na pagkalat ng nasabing sakit ay ang pagpapatupad ng enhance community quarantine hanggang Abril 12. Pero kani-kanina lang ay inanunsyo ng Palasyo na papalawigin pa ito ahanggang katapusan ng Abril. Isinailalim din ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ang buong bansa sa “State of Calamity”.

“Provided, that all exemptions granted by the Office of the President or the IATF shall continue to be in effect for the duration of the extended ECQ… Provided further that such extension of the ECQ shall be without prejudice to the discretion of the President to relax the implementation of the ECQ in some local jurisdictions, or the granting of exemptions in favor of certain sectors, as public health considerations and food security may warrant… Iyun po ang game plan. We need to push the peak kasi hindi pa natin nakikita ang peak. Kung lahat po ito ay magagawa natin, sinasabi ng mga eksperto maaari nating ma-push pa lalo ang peak ng COVID-19 dito sa Pilipinas as far as 2021. Sana by that time makapaghanap na ng vaccine ang mundo,” sabi ni Cabinet Secretary Karlo Nograles.
