Presidential Adviser for Entrepreneurship and Go Negosyo founder Joey Concepcion said these micro-enterprises “are already struggling” from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the high cost of commodities because of the Russia-Ukraine crisis.

The last wage order for employees in private establishments in Metro Manila was issued on November 22, 2018, granting a P25 increase in the minimum wage.
