LA TRINIDAD, Benguet –
Gov. Melchor Diclas said Wednesday it will be up to local government units in
the province if they want bars and entertainment houses to operate amid the
Covid-19 pandemic.
He said as far as he was concerned, bars and entertainment houses can now operate following the implementation of Alert Level 2 in the province in accordance with the pronouncement of the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Disease.
Operation of entertainment establishments, he added, still depend on the decision of respective LGUs of the 13 municipalities in the province.
Diclas said LGUs have the authority to do so because they know the actual situation of their municipalities.
One of requisites for said establishments to operate was that all their staff or personnel should have been fully vaccinated.
Customers who will enter their premises should also be required to present proof of full vaccination to ensure safety of everyone.
As of Nov. 23, the epidemic risk level of the 13 municipalities of Benguet was low.
This, as the number of Benguet residents being vaccinated was increasing.
