Yes ,  for airlines and other transportation

but the government adopted it in December 

 

Effective from August 15, 2020, all passengers are required to wear both face shields as well as face masks to comply with Philippine Department of Transportation regulations. The directive to wear face shields and masks applies to all domestic and international flights.

Face shields on jeepneys and taxis have been required for quite some time.   Same with malls, but maybe it was not an absolute mandate

yep,  it said transportation in the August memo

 

I am just surprised people think this is absurd as we wore them last March when we went to Europe 

and wore vinyl gloves and took sanitizer

What you quoted said international and domestic flights.

 

As for the feeling of absurdity,  you just need to consider the source

Knock off the insults.

OP, Google is your friend and should have been your first source.

Respondent, don't risk administrative action.
