MANILA (7th UPDATE) - The following local government units (LGUs) in Metro Manila have lifted a ban on the sale and consumption of liquor and other alcoholic drinks that has been in place since March due to the COVID-19 crisis.
Metro officials earlier banned liquor sale in their jurisdictions as the country quarantined millions to control the COVID-19 spread.
Metro Manila, home to nearly 13 million people, shifted to a modified lockdown on Saturday, May 16, that allows the slow restart of the economy.
In Batangas City, the ban was also lifted as the LGU shifted to the general community quarantine, but city secretary Victor Reginald Dimacuha called for continuous observation of physical distancing.
