Walang masakyan: Factory workers in Clark, Pampanga walk home
Factory workers were seen walking on the side of a road in Clark, Pampanga in the stark heat of the midday sun because "walang masakyan."
YouScooper Gladys Guellang shared the video on Tuesday, adding the employees were sent home after work at the factory was suspended around noon.
The workers reportedly decided to go on foot because they couldn’t get a ride on public transportation.
The province of Pampanga, along with the entire Luzon, has been placed under enhanced community quarantine to fight the spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in the country.
According to guidelines issued by the Department of Transportation (DOTr), operations of land transport modes such as public utility buses, jeepneys, taxis, Transport Network Vehicle Service (TNVS), FX, UV Express, Point-to-Point (P2P) buses, and Motorcycle Taxis shall be suspended. — Margaret Claire Layug/LA, GMA News
