Gen MEME Asks: Iman Masmoudi on ethical fashion
Gen MEME Weekly No. 9 (State of Emergency - Part 3)
Job cuts are happening, and many of us are at the receiving end.
As economies sputter to get back into gear, businesses are left with few options to reduce their expenses to keep afloat, and that can mean letting people go.
In this episode, Gen Meme speaks to economic analyst Hafiz Noor Shams for insights on what is going on with unemployment in Malaysia, and what steps the government is taking to keep people employed.
We also discuss new radical ideas that have been gaining currency globally, like Universal Basic Income and Job Guarantees, as governments scramble to minimise the potential economic fallout of COVID-19.
The episode also features Helmi Hasan of BalkoniHijau.com who shares with us his entrepreneurial experience post-MCO.
