highlights.
Sectors that will benefit the most – Based from the study of Dr. Cororaton,
electronic, machineries, agriculture, processed foods are among the sectors that
have notable improvement particularly in exports. Due to the effect of pandemic,
several jobs were lost in these sectors and through the implementation of RCEP,
by 2030 these sectors will generate more than 1 million jobs.
Areas that will benefit from RCEP – With the implementation of RCEP to the
Philippines, several areas will gain benefit. For example, the area in goods will
have an enhanced market access which is beneficial to the exporters. In addition,
the service sector will also benefit because RCEP provides a stable and
predictable environment that will boost investments on various sectors. And the
third area that will benefit is the area of investment. Several investors are coming
from the participating countries of RCEP, hence, if Philippines will be part of the
mega free trade deal, investors would expect a stable and predictable business
environment in the Philippines with a strengthen rule-based system.

B. How can the economy achieve improvement as we are still faced by the
pandemic?
The business industry is a significant cause of job and tax; however, the
COVID-19 pandemic has had many pulverizing impacts, including business
terminations and unemployment. Because of that, the government is struggling to
improve the economic environment in the country. With that being the problem,
the economy can improve if the government allows the business industry to be
back on its operations. It will allow a revival of jobs and income and boost private
consumption. Moreover, since there is already a source of income, buyers can
increase their spending capacity, which will result in a positive impact on the
economy. In addition, to improve the economy, the government can increase
investments to new and existing firms through the availability of direct capital
injections through investments, loans, and grants. Additionally, the government
can increase the activity through systems of public-private collaboration and
increase incoming foreign direct investment (FDI) while decreasing existing FDI.
