President Marcos’ economic team will work closely with Congress, the private sector, and civil society in a unified approach to economic recovery and long-term growth, the Department of Finance said.
Anchored on the administration’s near- and medium-term 8-Point Socioeconomic Agenda, the post-SONA PEB gathered more than 500 members of the business sector, development partners, civil society, and the media to a face-to-face event with Cabinet Secretaries. The high-level event fleshed out in three panel sessions the points mentioned in the President’s SONA.
Other members of the Cabinet who participated in the briefing include Socioeconomic Planning Secretary Arsenio Balisacan, Budget Secretary Amenah Pangandaman, Trade and Industry Secretary Alfredo Pascual, and Tourism Secretary Ma. Esperanza Christina Frasco. In his keynote speech, Diokno said that the Marcos administration will expand the private sector’s role in driving economic transformation.
He said that analysts consider these near-term growth projections to be the highest among the ASEAN+3 countries, which include Japan, South Korea, and China. In the near term, the plan seeks to address the immediate challenges confronting the Filipino people––rising prices, scarring from the Covid-19 pandemic, and ensuring sound macroeconomic fundamentals.
