BMCC participated in a task force meeting on the impact of COVID-19 to the industries 1/2020, hosted by the Ministry of International Trade and Industry, which was also participated by other Chambers of Commerce and selected industry leaders. Various concerns were raised and discussed on the impact to industries following the implementation of the Prime Minister’s Movement Control Order. One of the key concerns discussed was the closure of all government and private premises except those involved in essential services. It was highlighted that many of these non-essential businesses would be part of the supply chain of the essential businesses and the Closure may result in disruption to important essential businesses. If you view the closure of your business operations will be disruptive to essential businesses, please inform us immediately by completing the questionnaire below.
MITI is keen to obtain immediate feedback from the industry on the impact of the Movement Control Order. Your feedback and recommendations will be provided directly to MITI. MITI has assured that the feedback from industry will be brought to the attention of the National Security Council.
