The local music industry received some hopeful news after being affected severely by the pandemic for over a year now. The Ministry of Communications and Multimedia announced the formation of a government agency to ensure the growth of our local music industry.

We take a deeper look at initiatives by the government to help aid musicians at this moment in time.
