The survey interviewed 500 people and reported that despite government policies to mitigate the impact of the pandemic, local consumers believe that the Covid-19 will have some negative impact on our economic development given the global uncertainties and economic disruptions. The consumers surveyed also believe that even if they cut back on spending, it would still be slightly higher due to higher prices.

When it comes to the main reasons for the general increase in prices, some 29.7% of consumers cited the impact of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, 23.7% cited supply chain disruptions as the main cause, and 23.5% cited the impact of the easing of epidemic measures.
