The Philippines is usually called the "rainy season" from the beginning of June. However, it is unlikely that it will rain all day like the rainy season in Japan, and it will often be concentrated like a squall. It has been increasing lately that it rains in the middle of the night and in the morning, but during the daytime, the sky is so deep blue. We hope that even those who come early for sightseeing can enjoy the blue sky and blue sea of Cebu. The photo shows mango and papaya trees seen from the house. Both have a lot of fruit
Today Cebu has become a general community sequestration (GCQ) measure due to a long-lasting lockdown, and in some industries, stores, institutions, and businesses are gradually restarting. GCQ has enabled shopping mall operations, alcohol sales/purchases, and outdoor sports (jogging, bicycles, etc.), but you cannot continue to go out if you are under 21 years old, over 60 years old, or have a disease. Cinemas, spas and entertainment venues, and travel are still prohibited.
There is a limit to the number of people who can enter a mall or a store that has opened a business. While standing by, stand on the standing mark on the floor for social distance. The procedure for entering a mall near your home is 1. Wash your hands with the tap water provided in front of the entrance → 2. Check body temperature with security guard at entrance →3. Alcohol disinfection of hands →4. It is a flow of entering a store.
Metro Manila has become a general community quarantine (called GCQ in the Philippines) since June 1st, and is gradually easing various restrictions from the initial stage of lockdown. The number of industries that can start business is increasing. Many industries, such as restaurants, are allowed to operate up to 50%, but it seems that many of them support delivery or takeout.
Social distancing is strictly adhered to in the city. As a result, some public transportation services have been canceled, but due to major restrictions on the number of flights and the number of people, the number of trains will be reduced and temporary buses will be operated. The turmoil has begun.
The lockdown has been postponed in Cebu Island, but since June 1st, deregulation has been implemented and it is shifting to general community sequestration measures (GCQ). The tourist areas are still closed, but public transportation can be used by limiting the number of passengers such as jeepneys (like shared buses) and taxis.
Currently in Cebu Island, some areas are locked down (city blockade) and all tourist sites are closed indefinitely. There are checkpoints such as permission to go out at each place, and behavior regulation is quite strict. However, regulations are being relaxed little by little, so we will inform you when a tourist spot opens. [The Embassy of Japan in the Philippines] https://www.ph.emb-japa…
