International Trade and Industry Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali today stressed that the national economy does not run on a ‘switch off-switch on’ mode and requires time to slowly recover following a three-month strict lockdown last year.
While the Penjana and Prihatin stimulus packages announced by the government last year may have a compounding effect on the economy, Azmin dispelled the notion that the economy could revive instantaneously after the movement control order (MCO) was lifted.
