IMMA members, national and regional associations continue to be engaged in a constructive dialogue with their respective authorities and partners in the regions to facilitate a swift recovery of the economy. Government support has proved critical in the recovery of the industry during the first waves of the pandemic. Timely intervention and focused initiatives aimed at resolving issues will immensely assist the industry to stage a comeback.”
