Unli pasada! Government lifts curfew for PUV drivers

By Prince Golez

The Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases affirmed the exemption of public utility vehicles (PUVs) from local curfew ordinances.

Starting tomorrow, June 22, modern PUVs can ply Metro Manila roads again. The region is under General Community Quarantine (GCQ) until the end of June.
Based on IATF Resolution No. 47, only “non-workers” will be covered by the curfew.

“(Local government units) are enjoined to enact the necessary ordinances to enforce curfew only for non-workers in jurisdiction placed under (Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine), GCQ, and Modified GCQ to penalize, in a fair and humane manner, violations of the restrictions on the movement of people as provided under these Omnibus Guidelines,” the resolution approved last Friday stated.

The task force also “strongly enjoined” law enforcement agencies to observe fair and humane penalties for people who violate the curfew rules.
