Lugaw as non essential says a Barangay frontliner in Bulacan.
This event underscores the variety of interpretation by frontliners of IATF instructions/laws. This makes life for the masses doubly difficult: restricted movement and tyranical implementation of regulations as this one.
Since when Lugaw, a food item becomes non essential? Ano you can survive without lugaw? (Sige na)
So more training more explanation more understanding of the instructions. But in general, the easiest way to implement orders is to go for the strictest implementation to minimize deviation and time decision making by persons with limited ability to judge and decide.
We just hope the covid19 has not affected the way our people think from the IATF leadership down to the frontliners. Such events make fighting covid19 more challenging
