Aspiring president Vice President Leni Robredo stressed that investments will only dramatically rise if the country has a “strong and stable political and economic climate.”
In her speech during the Semiconductor and Electronics Industries in the Philippines, Inc. Q1 General Membership Meeting & Partner of the Industry Awards 2022 on Thursday, Jan. 27, Robredo said that the first step to revive the country’s industries is to restore trust in government.
“Only then can we begin the work to unlock the energies of our economy. With an honest government at the helm, the work ahead becomes easier— whether in strengthening the implementation of existing laws like the Ease of Doing Business Act, reviewing policies and legislation that have served as roadblocks for businesses to thrive, establishing incentives to attract business, or working to lower energy and transport costs,” Robredo said.
