Reporter Ann Gregorio was involved in the viral zoom conference, as she owns the account with the controversial video call background. The forum had asked the young politician for an update on his the quarantine in the city.
As per Mayor Vico, establishments that are selling foods and other necessities will be allowed to continue operating. Vico firmly believes that shutting down such establishments will definitely cause social unrest among his constituents.
Vico stated: “We will not shut down establishments that are selling food and other necessary supplies. Mas magiging magulo yun. That will cause a lot of social unrest and we can’t have people starving in their homes. So, yes, we will continue to be strict in implementing stay at home, if you’re not doing anything important, if you’re not buying food, you have to stay at home. We have been ramping up security measures, increasing checkpoints and doing other things to be stricter with this.”
