By VIRGIL LOPEZ,GMA News

President Rodrigo Duterte said Monday the grace period for the payment of loans and credit card dues ended on June 1 after the country was placed under less stringent coronavirus disease (COVID-19) restrictions.

The measure was applicable only during the enhanced community quarantine.

“In view of the lifting of the modified enhanced community quarantine on June 1, 2020, the grace period for the payment of all loans and credit card payments granted under Republic Act 11469 [Bayanihan to Heal as One Act] is no longer in effect,” Duterte said in his report to Congress on Monday.
