A Post-pandemic Message

How are you holding up?

Two months of quarantine have passed, the national economy is in pain and the worst is yet to come. It is guaranteed that a second wave of infections will hit, we just don’t know exactly when. Our neighbor, Singapore, is at the moment battling its second wave of cases.

More bad news, National Economic and Development Authority (NEDA) Acting Secretary Karl Kendrick Chua reported last May 7 that the economy has contracted to -0.2% in the first quarter of 2020. The lockdown started March 15 and the economy already sunk by that much. Its guaranteed that we’ll have a much more terrible number this coming second quarter. Central Bank governor Benjamin Diokno already predicts a recession.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) released its April 2020 World Economic Outlook which projected our unemployment rate to reach 6.2% this year.

To put that in perspective, the Philippine Statistics Office (PSO) reported that the country’s population of 15 years old and over is at 72,997,000. 94.7% of that or 69,128,159 were employed and 5.3% or 3,868,841 were unemployed. IMF’s prediction of 6.2% would put the number of unemployed at 4,285,946. That’s an additional 417,105 Filipinos that would have no income to feed themselves or their families.

The good news? All is not lost and there’s still plenty of money to be made. The real estate stakeholders that have not fully committed in the advancement and development of their online businesses have set themselves up to fail and lose market share; simply posting on Facebook & LinkedIn is not a “commitment” to “advance”. They had all the time to commit pre-pandemic but chose to slack around and hope that the world would adjust to them. Now is the best time for you to take full advantage of your position.

Our development team have not been affected by the quarantine and have been working non-stop to make everything run smoothly for you. The team have already been at a “work from home” setup since 2017. We’re capitalizing on that setup to deliver much needed help for your business.
