Talking about economic devastation, I don't understand why the Mayor in my city eagerly wants to have the ecq or mecq back again in the city. I mean, there were few balik bayan peps who arrived since the border opened, because this is one of the project of the LGU's to bring those people back home who was locally stranded in different areas of the country, at merong spike of numbers ng nag positive this past few days, actually the total number of positive cases in my region reached 33 from 11 before the border opened. These is like the LGU's fault for not securing these balik probinsya peps in a quarantine facility for another 14 days para mas sigurado. Pero ang ng yari yung mga tao yung nag su-suffer dahil mawawalan nanaman ng trabaho at negosyo. Actually we're under GCQ since June 1, and back again at MECQ today, until the 3rd of July.
The number of positive cases in my city is very low compared to other cities, Infact there was no local transmission, all of these positive cases has travel histories from places that records a lot of positive cases like Cebu and Manila.

The mayor here wants to do the same thing, for who knows what reason exactly. He actually did contract the virus so maybe that influenced his thinking. But luckily we are remaining under GCQ.

I don't understand why the decision about who gets what level of quarantine is made by Duterte (I'm sure he has advisors that look at general stats, but still). It should be up to the province governor.

Anyway, I can't believe that Nutildah is a Filipino citizen. Hehe. You are really a good poster and contributor of the forum.

I'm actually not a citizen, more just a Permanent Tourist. I'll have to leave the country and get my passport stamped before the end of the year. But thanks anyway. I do like the Philippines and while I'm not sure I'll ever become an official citizen, I plan on spending a lot of time here.
