summary of cebu province and cebu city enhanced quarantine executive orders
by ian crystal 3/29/20
I. objective
the cebu province governor and cebu city mayor issued a quarantine order to combat covid-19. this is the first time in the history of the philippines where a time sensitive and critical executive order can and should immediately reach and be understood by the common folks so i thought it should be simplified or summarized.
please forward to as many cebuanos as you can or share it. it's ridiculous to expect things to go well without people knowing what they need to do or expect. what we are experiencing is unprecedented in our lifetime. we should refrain from relying on our old ways and orthodox principles to save the day for us.
the quarantine order is mostly just common sense. example, hospitals are ordered to continue to operate to care for the sick. we die if we don't eat, so food producers and providers are ordered to continue to operate. nobody dies from wearing old clothes so stores selling clothes are ordered closed. issuance of driver's license and vehicle registration is obviously not a priority so expect these offices to be closed.
II. open for business
any operation or office vital to providing basic necessities and services are ordered to operate or allowed to stay open for BOTH cebu province and cebu city. these are called "essential services". obvious examples are food/water, medical/emergency, energy/electricity/fuel, peace and order/enforcement/government, finance/banking, funeral and media. personnel of these essential services are called "essential personnel" or frontliners.
not so obvious examples of essential services for both cebu city and province are hardware stores, laundry services, veterinary clinics, hotels, and call centers. note they are also considered essential personnel or frontliners.
public transportation (jeepney, taxi, grab, habal habal, buses, tricycles, etc ...) are not allowed to operate due to high risk of virus transmission therefore the government will be providing transportation to all essential personnel.
III. quarantine passes
people still need to go out and buy food so 1 member of each household should be allowed to do so. the only way to enforce this is provide each household with 1 quarantine pass.
for cebu province and cebu city, any essential personnel or frontliners don't need a quarantine pass. they just need to present their work ID.
cebu province will issue a quarantine vehicular pass for each household. for cebu city, private vehicles used to buy food are allowed and don't need a vehicular pass.
contrary to popular belief, funeral services are allowed. for cebu province, non immediate family members will need a special quarantine pass valid for only 1 visit. no specifics were provided for cebu city.
the baranggay or LGU officials will distribute the quarantine passes for cebu province and cebu city. for cebu city, the first 5 days of the quarantine (3/28 to 4/1) won't require a quarantine pass for buying food and necessities (to give time for the officials to distribute the passes). no specifics were given for cebu province.
IV. border control
basically, cebu city is the hot zone and cebu province is trying to protect itself from cebu city. starting monday (march 20 12:01 am), non essential personnel are not allowed to go from cebu city to cebu province. however anyone with a quarantine pass can go from cebu province to cebu city.
note the term essential personnel or frontliners have a different meaning when it comes to border control. just use common sense. example laundry services don't need to cross the border so they are considered non essential in the context of border control. however bank personnel that delivers money to the atms in the province are considered essential so they will be allowed to go from cebu city to cebu province.
there is a confusing item in the cebu city quarantine order that says non-cebu city residents working outside of cebu city can apply for a BLUE pass. why would they need a quarantine pass for cebu city? will the pass allow them to go back to the province?
the borders of cebu province are talisay, balamban and mandaue. they are all part of cebu province, including mactan island.
what we need is a wiki page for the entire world containing centralized information about covid-19 (faqs, statistics, etc ...). each country will have a link to it's own wiki page and each state, province and city contains a link to each own wiki page so anyone can get critical info specific to their locality. i will do that soon.
i hope this information won't distract you from the most important thing, which is: wear a mask, wash your hands before touching your face and stay 6 feet away from people.

summary sa cebu province ug cebu city enhanced quarantine executive orders
by ian crystal 3/29/20
I. objective
ang gobernador sa cebu ug mayor sa cebu city nag issue ug quarantine order para pag kombat sa covid-19. ge binisaya ni nako, papa joe style para mas masabtan sa tanan.
palihug e forward ni sa tanang sugbuanon ug e post sa imo timeline kay mas taas ang posibilidad na magyagaw ang quarantine kung walay kalibutan ang mga tao unsay buhaton. dle magsilbe atong kara-ang kinaiya ug pamaagi sa pag kombat aning virus. pero kaya ni nato. VIRUS RA NA !!! SUGBUANON KITA !!!
actually common sense ra ang kadaghanan naka butang sa quarantine order. pananglitan, abri gyud ang hospital ug maka gawas gyud ang nurse ug doctor kay kinsa man ang mo atiman sa mga pasyente? kung dle ta mo kaon, mamatay ta so of course ang mga nag negyosyo ug pagkaon, abri pud. pero dle man tingali ta mamatay kung out of fashion na ato sanina so sirado ang mga tindahan sa sanina. ug i'm sure dle kaayo importante karon ang pag issue ug driver's license ug rehistro sa auto so sirado gyud na ang LTO.
II. open for business
nag order ang governador ug mayor na padayon ang mga operasyon sa "essential services". ang mga obvious mao ning pagkaon/tubig, medical/emergency, energy/electrisidad/gasolina, peace and order/police/military/gobyerno, finance/bangko, funeral ug media. ang ilang mga empleyado ge tawag ug "essential personnel" or frontliners.
ang dile kaayo obvious na essential services sa probinsya ug syudad mao ning mga tindahan sa hardware, laundry services, veterinary clinics, hotels, ug call centers. so frontliner gihapon ang mga call centers, labandera ug nagtrabaho sa hotel ug hardware store.
ang mga public transportation (jeepney, taxi, grab, habal habal, buses, tricycles, etc ...) dile pwede mag operate kay anha mag takdanay ang mga tao. ang gobyerno na ang mag provide sa transpo sa mga frontliners.
III. quarantine passes
para makakaon ang mga tao, duna 1 sa taga panimalay na pwede mo gawas para mo palit ug pagkaon ug importante na groceries. para pag siguro masunod ning importante kaayo na balaod, tagaan ug 1 ka quarantine pass ang taga panimalay.
sa cebu provine ug cebu city, ang mga frontliners exempted or dile kahilanlan ug quarantine pass. ipakita lang nila ang ilang ID sa trabaho sa checkpoint or enforcers.
ang cebu province mag issue ug quarantine vehicular pass taga panimalay. sa cebu city, ang mga private na motor ug auto pwede mo dagan para pag palit ug mga pagkaon ug groceries. so dile kahilanlan ug vehicular pass ang cebu city.
contrary to popular belief, pwede pa mag haya sa funeraria. pero sa cebu province, kahilanlan ang mga non immediate family members ug special quarantine pass valid sa 1 ka visit. walay detalye ang order sa cebu city bahin ini.
sa cebu province ug cebu city, ang baranggay ug LGU officials mo adto sa taga balay para pag hatag sa mga quarantine passes. sa cebu city, ang first 5 days sa quarantine (3/28 to 4/1) dile kahilanlan ug quarantine pass para pag palit ug pagkaon ug groceries (para ni paghatag ug panahon sa mga opisyales sa pag house to house). walay detalya ang ge hisgut sa cebu province bahin ini.
IV. border control
basically, ang cebu city ang hot zone or mas daghan ug coronavirus. ang cebu province nag suway ug protekta sa ilang lugar. mao na sugod sa monday (march 20 12:01 am), ang non essential personnel dile pwede mo gawas sa cebu city. pwede gud pero adto ka sa dagat mag langoy langoy (karon ra ko ka realize lisod kaayo ang trabaho ni papa joe). pero ang mga dunay quarantine pass pwede mo adto sa cebu city gikan sa probinsya.
hinumdumi na ang meaning sa essential personnel or frontliners mausab na kung border control ang ge sturyahan. common sense ra gihapon ni. pananglitan, ang laundry services dle man kahilanlan mo gawas sa syudad kay duna man daghan laundry bisan asa sa syudad, so dile sila pwede mo labang sa border. pero ang kanang mag refill sa mga atm sa probinsya, ang kwarta gikan gud sa syudad so kahilanlan tugutan sila mo adto sa probinsya.
hinumdumi na ang talisay, balamban ug mandaue part na sila sa cebu province. hasta pud ang mactan island.
pero ang pinakaimportante sa tanan, ayaw gyud kalimti na dle gyud mo matakdan kung dle mo mo hikap say inyo nawong ug dle mo magpaduol ug laing tao within 6 feet. pwede ka mo hikap sa imo nawong kung manghinaw usa ka for 20 seconds gamit ug bisan unsa na sabon.
