Bayron, in his message to the employees early Monday morning, thanked the personnel from City Health Office (CHO), Bureau of Quarantine (BoQ), and other local authorities in imposing strict health measures, assuring the public that Puerto Princesa City will remain virus-free and hopes the disease will "meltdown".
Mayor Lucilo Bayron said Friday in an interview with Palawan News that they will not impose a temporary ban on the entry of tourists in major city destinations, such as the Underground River and Honda Bay despite the 2019-novel coronavirus scare.
Demetrio Alvior, city tourism officer, said Friday morning that the “aggressive” precautionary measure imposed by the Customs, Immigration, Quarantine, and Security (CIQS) was an affirmation to the old adage “prevention is better than cure”.
