Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, June 26) — The government is now allowing groups of up to 10 people to visit memorial parks and cemeteries, Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque said Friday.
He said this was among the amended guidelines approved by the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases, for areas under general community quarantine, including Metro Manila.
“Pinayagan ang pagdalaw sa open memorial parks at sementeryo pero hindi dapat ito lumampas ng sampu bawat grupo,” Roque said in an online media briefing.
[Translation: The IATF has allowed the reopening of open memorial parks and cemeteries to visitors but groups should not be more than 10 people.]
The government leaves it to the management of the memorial parks to decide how many groups will be allowed at a given time, as long as health protocols are followed, Roque said.
