MORENO

Manila City Mayor Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso has ordered the Manila Business Processing Office to issue show cause orders to merchandisers who allegedly sold overpriced face masks.

Earlier, the local government received reports that some stores have been selling face masks, originally priced at P30, for up to P200.

“‘Yang mga tinitinda niyong mask, nasa bodega niyo lang ‘yan. Mura niyo ‘yan binili, kaya dapat tama lang ang presyo ng pagbenta niyo,” he said.

“Hindi ko po papayagan ang pang-aabuso sa ganitong pagkakataon,” he added.

Domagoso said that should they fail to explain themselves, their permits may be revoked.

Authorities are now working to distribute the few remaining stocks of face masks in the city, the city mayor said.
