MANILA, Philippines — Classes have been suspended in all levels in the province of Romblon and Tacloban City in Leyte on Monday as Tropical Depression Auring nears the Visayas and Mindanao.
According to a memorandum order of Romblon Governor Jose Riano, “work suspension and class suspension in all levels in the Province of Romblon on February 22, 2021 is hereby declared” due to the weather disturbance.
