June 1: Rebuilding the Socio-Economic Sphere in the Post-COVID Scenario

May 31, 2020 by NordCham

The past few months have exhibited the evolution of the COVID-19 outbreak into an international health crisis. In response to this, countries have imposed travel restrictions, implemented lockdowns, and conducted mass testings, among other measures. In the Philippines, we have witnessed a number of private sector initiatives that complement the government’s efforts in this plight. As the country continues to fight against the socio-economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, there becomes an increasing need for strengthened stakeholder support and collaboration.

It is in this context that the ECCP, together with NordCham, is organizing a Special COVID-19 Webinar entitled “Rebuilding the Socio- Economic Sphere in the Post-COVID Scenario”, on 01 June 2020. Join us as we hear from Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, the Philippine government’s socio-economic programs and initiatives, support measures for the private sector, and other plans and priorities in light of the pandemic.

Secretary Roque became a congressman in 2016. He is particularly proud of being a primary sponsor of the bill of Universal Health Care in Congress, which is now Republic Act No 11223. He is also a major proponent of three other bills that have become laws in the 17th Congress: providing free lunch for school children, providing free irrigation for farmers and providing free public tertiary education.

He returned to the cabinet as Presidential Spokesperson on April 13, 2020. He is also the Spokesperson of the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF), regularly informing Filipinos about the government’s policies to mitigate and control the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
