by Christhel Cuazon11 May 2021

Caloocan City Mayor Oscar Malapitan on Sunday ordered the closure of a resort in the city after it was found operating despite the strict quarantine protocols implemented in the vicinity.

In a Facebook post, Malapitan said the local government will file charges against the Gubat sa Ciudad resort in Barangay Bagumbong after photos and videos of people, including children, swimming in its pool went viral on social media.

It was later reported that the resort hosted a celebration for Mother's Day on Sunday.

"Buong pwersa ng batas ang ipapataw sa mga may-ari at operator ng resort kasama na ang mga nag-swimming at ang mga pinuno ng barangay na tila nagpabaya sa kanilang tungkulin," Mayor Malapitan said in a statement.

Malapitan also ordered the revocation of the resort's business license.

"Nag-utos din si Mayor Malapitan ng malawakang contact tracing, close monitoring at angkop at tamang oras ng RT-PCR testing sa lahat ng mga indibidwal na nasa loob ng nasabing resort," the post read.

Caloocan City is currently under the NCR Plus Bubble and remains under modified enhanced community quarantine until May 14. However, the said establishments are only allowed in areas under general community quarantine and Modified GCQ.
