The Commission on Elections, for its part, said all employees of the Comelec Main Office, Offices of the Regional Election Director for the National Capital Region, Region 4A and 4B, and Office of the Election Officer, City of Manila will be working from home from June 28 to June 29 but operations will be suspended on June 30. — Sundy Locus/BM, GMA News
