Quarantine passes no longer required in Cavite malls
MANILA, Philippines — Quarantine passes are no longer required for mall goers in Cavite as the local government imposes guidelines during a least restrictive community quarantine, Cavite Governor Jonvic Remulla revealed Wednesday.
“Q-PASS REQUIREMENTS FOR MALLS ARE NOW SUSPENDED. Yehey! Puede na magliwaliw. Just present an official government or school ID showing the ages 15-65 years old,” Remulla said in a Facebook post.
(Quarantine pass requirements for malls are now suspended. They can now go to malls in leisure.)
The governor, however, mandated that mall goers have three hours to visit the establishment.
“Ngunit may 3-hour limit tayong ibibigay. Mag-ingat ng husto sa paglibot. (We gave them a three-hour limit. Take extra caution when visiting malls.) Wear a mask, face shield, frequently wash and sanitize your hands. Most importantly, continue maintaining social distancing protocols,” he said.
