Currently, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, there are still a lot of stranded individuals. Many of them were placed at Rizal Memorial Coliseum and, undeniably, there is an alarming number of people there now.
One of those who reacted to the flock of stranded individuals at the Rizal Memorial Coliseum is Ormoc City Mayor Richard Gomez. He penned an open letter for President Rodrigo Roa Duterte about it.
In his letter, Mayor Richard Gomez asked Pres. Rodrigo Roa Duterte about the in-charge of the “Hatid Tulong” program which led to a huge number of people at Rizal Memorial Coliseum. He believes the in-charge does not know what he is doing citing that social distancing’s not observed for more than two (2) days already.
