Trade chief urges local mayors to support ‘inclusive growth’ drive

Secretary Gregory Domingo of the Department of Trade and Industry urged provincial leaders to work harder in helping local entrepreneurs expand their small businesses to support the government’s drive in delivering ‘inclusive growth’ to all segments of the population.

“Inclusive growth simply means that the economic gains of the country should be felt not just by the upper class, but by everybody,” Domingo told the general assembly of the League of Municipalities of the Philippines. “We want you to be with us in this initiative to help our small businesses.”
