Looks like there is no end in sight for this country to ever get back to normal.   

 

Hopefully when it comes time for re election the people will remember how she has destroyed the city and many of the hospitality related jobs.

Davao City Mayor Inday Sara Duterte has extended the 24-hour liquor ban and curfew in the city until March 31 under Executive Order (E.O.) No. 5, Series of 2021, which she signed on Friday, January 29.

The current 24-hour liquor ban and curfew via E.O. 71, Series of 2020, was also an extension of E.O. 59, Series of 2020, and E.O. 55-B, Series of 2020, respectively.

E.O. 59 reimposes the 24-hour liquor ban in the city to prevent the exposure of individuals to COVID-19 through unbridled drinking sessions while E.O. 55-B imposes the curfew to avert the spike of cases during the holiday season, to support the Davao City Police Office (DCPO) in its anti-criminality efforts, and to intensify terrorism surveillance and anti-illegal drugs operations in the coastal areas.

Duterte, in her E.O. 5, said, “It becomes necessary to extend Executive Order No. 71 to regulate some activities that can contribute to local transmission in the City.”

She also cited the need to control the COVID-19 cases in Davao City because of the full occupancy of COVID-19 beds at the Southern Philippines Medical Center (SPMC).

Due to the surge of COVID-19 cases, she said Davao City shall remain under the general community quarantine (GCQ) as announced by Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque.

Violators of E.O. 5, which takes effect on January 31, shall be held liable by existing applicable laws and ordinances. CIO

I really don't understand the liquor ban.  Does that prohibit the sale of all liquor?
