Infrastructure growth still key after pandemic

For the first time in modern day history, humanity is fighting a common enemy. The coronavirus (Covid-19) pandemic, continues to spread across the globe and claim thousands of lives. Disruption of daily activities and crating of economies across world over has become the order of the day.

The infrastructure and transportation systems that bonded us globally, nationally, and locally have been reduced to minimum essential usage. With China occupying the production apex of the world’s food chain, with up to up to 60 per cent of the world’s supply and demand, 65 per cent of world manufacturing, and 41 per cent of world manufacturing exports, the growing threat of Covid-19 has created a serious risk to supply chains creating shocks to trade flows due to transport and logistics disruptions.
