Pga “Mitsubishi Motors Philippines Corporation (MMPC) would like to maintain a safe and healthy community, and in support of the national government’s directives to fight the spread of COVID-19, all Mitsubishi dealerships in the entire Luzon area (including Metro Manila) will be temporarily closed starting March 17, 2020 until April 12, 2020,” said Mitsubishi Philippines on Facebook. Some car brands have announced that Vis-Min dealership operations will continue throughout the quarantine, some have announced shortened hours. The ‘enhanced community quarantine,’ which takes effect from 12:00 am of March 17, 2020 until 12:00 am of April 13, 2020, calls for the “strict” home quarantine in all households, suspension transportation, regulation food and essential health services, and heightening of uniformed personnel’s presence to enforce quarantine procedures. Media vehicles and reporters shall be allowed to travel within the community quarantine area, provided that they secure a special media pass from the PCOO. The enhanced quarantine measures also require only one person per household to go outside their homes to buy basic necessities. Use of private vehicles for this purpose shall be allowed. Sunday, March 15, marked the beginning of the month-long ‘lockdown’ implemented by the Philippine Government to curb the spread of the dreaded disease from China.
