THE Covid-19 pandemic has caused Malaysia’s economic activities to slow down due to the implementation of the movement control order since March last year.
This was followed by MCO 2.0 which started last month.
The situation has affected the country’s unemployment rate.
According to the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), the country’s unemployment rate dropped to 4.8% in the fourth quarter, after recording the highest quarterly unemployment rate of 5.1% in the second quarter of last year.
