Manila Mayer Isko Moreno Shuts Down Distributor, Elegant Fumes
ISKO MORENO SHUTS DOWN DISTRIBUTOR – Mayor Isko Moreno has ordered the closure of a Manila-based distributer for listing Manila as a province of China.
Last week, the product “Ashley Shine” of distributer “Elegant Fumes” went viral for listing Manila as a province of China. After being called out by thousands of netizens, Elegant Fumes posted a response on their page showing photos of the same product but without Manila listed as a part of China.
The incident got a lot of traction and even lawmakers heard of the issue. As such, Puwersa ng Bayaning Atleta (PBA) Party-list Rep. Jericho Nograles said lawmakers should impose a punishment for mislabeling on consumer products.
