Abstract

Situasi semasa dan cabaran yang dihadapi oleh semua negara menunjukkan bahawa pandemik COVID-19 yang sedang berlaku ini merupakan sebuah krisis berskala global. Dalam penulisan ini, pendapat dan penulisan daripada ahli akademik, pemerhati politik dan laporan-laporan daripada institut-institut kajian telah ditinjau dan disaring untuk mendapatkan idea-idea utama yang dilontarkan terhadap setiap implikasi yang dibincangkan. Bagi menghadapi kesan kegawatan ekonomi ini, negara-negara di seluruh dunia melancarkan Pakej Rangsangan Ekonomi untuk mengurangkan risiko kegawatan pada masa hadapan. Malaysia juga mengeluarkan pakej rangsangan kewangan sebanyak RM250 bilion. Sekiranya pakej rangsangan ini terus bertambah, jumlah hutang negara akan semakin meningkat dan negara-negara di seluruh dunia tidak dapat lagi menanggung beban hutang yang tinggi. Ini akan membawa kepada situasi yang seterusnya, iaitu negara-negara tersebut terpaksa meminjam daripada institusi-institusi kewangan dunia yang didominasi oleh elit kuasa iaitu Amerika Syarikat dan China seperti IMF, World Bank dan AIIB.

 

 

The current situation and challenges faced by all countries indicate that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic is a crisis of global scale. In this paper, opinions and writings from academicians, political observers and reports from research institutes were surveyed and summarised to obtain key ideas of the implications discussed. To address the effects of this economic downturn, countries around the world are launching Economic Stimulus Packages to reduce the risk of future crises. Malaysia also issued a financial stimulus package of RM250 billion. If this stimulus package continues to grow, the total national debt will increase and the countries around the world will no longer be able to bear the high debt burden. This will lead to the next situation, which is, that these countries are forced to borrow from the world financial institutions such as the IMF, World Bank and AIIB that are dominated by the power elites namely the United States and China.
