CEBU CITY, Philippines — The services rendered by the members of Task Force Kasaligan in Cebu City will continue until the end of the year.

Cebu City Councilor Philip Zafra confirmed this on Friday, July 8, 2022. The contract of the force multipliers with the city government was supposed to end last June 30.

“There’s really need to continue their contract, especially now nga gawasnon na ang tanan. All is back to normal be it in business, school, work stations, among other things,” Zafra said.

“Thus, the more that we will deploy them to continually remind the public of the basic health protocol. They will continue to help the city in the aspect of regulation and enforcement,” he added.

Task Force Kasaligan, according to him, helped in the implementation of health protocols during the height of the pandemic.

They were called to assist policemen in their campaign against criminality, especially in securing the interior areas of Cebu City.    /rcg
