The mayor added that the reenactment will just be streamed live through facebook so that people can still view the activity.
Montejo expressed his support on the mayor’s plan.
Aside from this, the two also discussed the different measures that the city is implementing against COVID-19, the upcoming Misa de Gallo or Dawn Masses, among others.
