CSF calls on businesses to follow quarantine guidelines vs Covid-19

CITY OF SAN FERNANDO---“Hindi namin kayo ipinapasara pero sana gampanan ninyo ang mga responsibilidad ninyo.”

This was Mayor Edwin “EdSa” Santiago’s plea during his meeting with the mall and supermarket executives and managers on August 24, underscoring the importance of their roles in suppressing COVID-19 cases in the city.

“Importante ang inyong partisipasyon sa labang ito. Yes, we have to save the economy, but we also have to save lives. Utak at puso ang kailangan. Alam ko kayo ay executives and managers, kaya kayo nariyan dahil marurunong kayo pero dagdagan natin ng puso,” he said.
