MANILA, Philippines – Quezon City Mayor Herbert Bautista admitted that he was not happy suspending classes in the area during bad weather but said he would rather keep his constituents safe than sorry.
“Alam mo medyo malungkot din ako dahil ayaw ko ng nagsususpend ng nagsususpend dahil baka wala ng natutununan ang mga bata especially now dito sa Quezon City, medyo marami tayong mga holidays,” Bautista said in an interview over Radyo Inquirer 990AM.
“Ayaw po naming mag-declare kaya lang baka mamamaya may masaktan, may magkasakit, tayo pa ang masisi…So mabuti na rin ho yung safe kesa naman sorry tayo,” he added.
