This was the city’s response on reports that Dalaguete farmers had suffered through the decreased demand for their goods resulting to waste of the vegetables. “There is no order from the Mayor to that effect. In fact, the Mayor echoes the call of IATF pursuant to its issued guidelines that the transport and delivery of essential goods must remain unimpeded – no matter the quarantine status,” he said.Mayor Edgardo Labella has already instructed the Market Administrator’s Office to ensure that the entry of goods to the city remains smooth, especially that the demand for goods remains high in Cebu City.
This is mainly to the strict monitoring of the Market Authority of the Department of Trade and Industry’s price freeze of products.
