The resurgence comes alongside sustained performance from non-agricultural activities, bolstered by strong domestic demand and price stability, according to recent data from the High Commission for Planning (HCP). The primary sector overall is forecast to expand 10% in 2026 compared to 3.7% in 2025, contributing 1.1 percentage points to national economic growth versus 0.4 points in 2025. Secondary activities registered remarkable 4.8% growth in 2025 and should advance nearly 4.2% in 2026, maintaining their contribution to national growth around 1.1 percentage points for both years. The tertiary sector confirms its resilience with projected 4.3% growth in 2026 after 4.5% in 2025, contributing 2.3 points to GDP growth. Tourism and hospitality continued their strong recovery with nearly 9.7% growth in 2025, supported by increased tourist arrivals, solid travel receipts, and enhanced destination promotion.
