Duterte to LGUs: Limit minors' visits to malls

PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte urged local government units (LGU) to consider imposing stricter policies that will limit the entry of minors to public establishments such as shopping malls.

The Chief Executive floated the idea of enforcing age restrictions on the youth, with the unvaccinated discouraged from going out of their homes amid the still present threat of the coronavirus disease.
