We’ve Always Run 24/7 — B5 Plus exposes Gov't Propaganda

According to critics, the fact that major private-sector industries such as B5 Plus already operate 24/7 undermines claims that the proposed policy represents a transformative economic strategy. They argue that round-the-clock production in sectors such as manufacturing, mining, healthcare, and hospitality has historically been driven by market forces rather than government directives.

Opposition voices have described the 24-hour economy proposal as “empty propaganda” and a “public relations tool,” suggesting it lacks concrete implementation frameworks and is designed to divert attention from prevailing economic challenges.

They further maintain that many businesses extend operating hours based on profitability and demand considerations, making the government’s emphasis on a 24-hour system appear redundant. Some critics have characterized the narrative as a “lazy cliché,” arguing that industrial productivity hinges more on infrastructure, access to capital, energy reliability, and regulatory efficiency than simply on extended working hours.

On the other hand, government proponents insist that the 24-hour economy agenda is intended to formalize and incentivize continuous production across multiple sectors, create jobs, and enhance industrial output through coordinated policy support.
