CABANATUAN CITY––Vice presidential candidate and Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio reminded on Friday her supporters in this city to observe physical distancing even as she granted their request for “selfies.”

Duterte-Carpio was in this city to grace the opening of two campaign headquarters for her team in Barangays Sumacab and Bantug. She also met with some local politicians.

Emerging from the inauguration, Duterte-Carpio greeted her supporters waiting along Maharlika Highway.

In several instances, she flashed a placard with a reminder to follow physical distancing, one of the rules of the Commission on Elections in sorties.

“Kailangan may social distancimg dahil magagalit po ang Comelec ‘pag hindi natin sinunod ang minimum public health standards,” Duterte-Carpio said as she thanked the people of Nueva Ecija for their “warm welcome.”
