Photo Of San Fernando City ECQ Violators Sanctioned To Plant Vegetables
SAN FERNANDO CITY – About 35 first-time violators of the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) in San Fernando, Pampanga were sanctioned to plant vegetables in the city nursery.
Several provinces in the Philippines are under Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ). This is in order to contain the spread of the SARS–CoV–2, the virus that causes Coronavirus disease 2019.
The governments in different areas have, however, their own methods of sanctioning violators of the ECQ protocol. The most common is, of course, imprison them.
In Caloocan City, violators were forced to walk to EDSA or head to the New City Hall which will take more than one hour.
In Quezon City, they took a more harsher or more disciplinary approach as officials hit stubborn violators with a stick.
In the capital city of Pampanga, the government penalized about 35 violators by making them plant. This is one of these approaches where they further make the violators help their countrymen and themselves.
In a Facebook post from the page Tulong para sa mga pamilya sa Abacan Jaoville 6th Street Marisol, the city police director Colonel Paul Gamido said that they made the violators plant squash and okra for two to three hours.
Gamido added that he used this sanction as a body exercise for them and it is, for him, a more productive approach.
