Minors can now go to the malls as long as they are accompanied by their parents or guardian.
Interior and Local Government Secretary Eduardo Ano made the announcement in the meeting with President Rodrigo Duterte, Monday night.
“Para na rin po sa kapaskuhan ay dun sa ipinag-utos natin na pwede ng gradual expansion ng age group para makalabas, ang mga minors, basta accompanied ng mga magulang ay papayagang makalabas at makapunta sa malls,” Ano said.
However, the Secretary clarified that local government units (LGUs) need to approve related ordinances regarding the matter, with consideration on the status of COVID-19 cases in their areas.
“Ito ay pagtitibayin sa mga ordinansa ng ating mga mayors dun sa lugar ng GCQ,” the official added.
