Economic recovery is highly uneven with the burden of adjustment disproportionally falling on service sector, self-employed workers, aged 25-34. Cumulative jobs destructed far exceeds jobs created in service sector, although manufacturing sector has already entered recovery phase with positive net jobs created. Existing schemes like PenjanaKerjaya and Program Subsidi Upah won’t be effective, as mobility remains restricted and non-eligibility denies assistance. i-citra and loan moratorium programmes, while easing liquidity constraint, weakens the poor’s capacity to recover.
