The business opportunity for the mask business during the pandemic that has not subsided has made the Indonesian economy tense this year.
The government needs to provide support and mobilize SMEs so that local production, especially convection, can then move the economy because it must continue to run. In addition, local Indonesian fashion designers have started to make funny masks according to current models.
In my opinion, the potential for developing the mask business is great. HIPMI wants the government to be able to buy some domestically made goods. Currently, COVID-19 is an obstacle for the Indonesian health industry to be independent domestically because Indonesia can actually do without a lot of import business transactions.
“In my opinion, with the creations of colleagues who are smart in learning to make masks and others, the import number will be suppressed for a long time. This is precisely the government’s step to socialize so that we can buy local products and through existing ones. So that the MSME economy will continue to run.
On the same occasion, Saifudin HS as the President Director of Indo Facility Partners said that this desire was due to the high demand for COVID-19 and among them are still needed, including masks.
Mask business opportunity during the pandemic. In the MSME business, a study by LPEM UI and UNDP in 2022 found that more than 88% of MSMEs had lowered their overall income from the start of the pandemic to August 2022.
However, the encouraging news is that Indonesian MSMEs are in the midst of monetary difficulties and have a high probability of recovering from the impact of the pandemic.
College of Indonesia market analyst and chief supervisor of Next Policy, Fithra Faisal, said Indonesia’s monetary developments are expected to recover to 4 to 6 percent in 2022.
“Welfare estimates, for example, injections will speed up recovery in utilization and offer wider business potential. At that time, monetary mediation by increasing motivation in 2022 will energize MSMEs,” he said in an official statement, Wednesday (16/2) 2022.
Fithra underlined in particular that some MSMEs that have found a way to survive are highly dependent on ICT (data, correspondence and innovation). The presentation of this innovation can be a central issue in increasing exchange by as much as a percent.
Michael Williem, CEO of Qasir said, the organization has seen firsthand several MSME actors who are trying to maintain their organization, make business changes, and even leave the business. “It is undeniable that computerized changes make the intensity of MSMEs expand.
For example, when MSME actors work with online transportation managers, work with internet business stages to carry out progress, package programs, and create different methodologies that are directed at maintaining the circulation of goods.
“Michael said: The next technique is the ability of these MSME entertainers to react to new requirements that arise at other ordinary times.
Indirectly, the emergence of new business visionaries in 2022 will also have a positive impact on their business. Michael is very adequate today and idealistic that Indonesian MSMEs will recover in 2022.
