The table above shows the frequency and its percentage together with
the ranking of the respondents answering the question on “How may the
implementation of ECQ affects the micro businesses towards the customers.”
As can be seen from this table,7 of respondents indicated that consumers
can’t buy their needs whatever they want, and this resulted to have the utmost
percentage of 33.33% and place in the first rank. In addition to this number,
from the total of 21 respondent only 1 (4.76%) of respondents stated that
consumers can buy their needs whatever they want. Another 6 (28.57%) of
respondents indicated that due to implementation of ECQ 18 years old below
and 60 years old above are prohibited to go outside. Moreover, 5 (23.81%) of
respondents pointed that due to implementation of ECQ consumers are not
allowed to go outside during curfew hours, whereas 2 (9.52%) said that due to
the implementation of ECQ consumers are allowed to go outside during
curfew hours. Out of 21 respondents that the researchers selected through
using sampling method the table above represents that the effects of the
implementation of ECQ may vary to the different views and observations of
therespondents.
