Bohol Gov. Arthur Yap has urged the government to transfer Covid-19 vaccines from “brand-conscious” areas to those willing to receive them, like Bohol, to help the local tourism industry survive the pandemic.
Bohol is the first province to enforce a quarantine to contain the spread of the disease.
The DILG sent a letter to President Rodrigo Duterte over the weekend, notifying him about the high probability of ban extension to guarantee that the virus won’t affect the main hog industry in Central Visayas, which covers a total of Php20 billion.
Bohol Governor Arthur Yap says he is open to allow pork and pork products from Luzon to enter the province but with set conditions.
