As Indians learn how to live with the coronavirus, there is a lot of undoing the country needs to do in terms of economics, especially to boost its contribution to the global supply chain. The country's merchandise exports in April plunged by over 60% year-on-year to US$10.36 billion from US$26.07 billion reported during the same month of the previous year, with sectors such as textile and gems and jewelry marked in red. A recent study led by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) suggests that the global exports of commodities to China may fall by 46% in 2020 due to the coronavirus. Hence, even without the ongoing India-China border dispute and the call to boycott Chinese goods among Indians, the bilateral trade between these nations is likely to suffer in the coming weeks and put global trade in jeopardy. In this uncertainty, all we look forward to is an antidote/vaccine to curb the virus and return normalcy, so one can start to deal with other socio-economic problems as needed.
