Pasig Mayor and man on the hour Vico Sotto after
being subtle reminded by the national government that all local government
units(LGU’s) should not deviate from the set of protocols laid down by the
national government had this important message tos ay to his fellow local chief executives in the country.
“Sana
‘wag na natin ikumpara sa isa’t isa ‘yong mga LGU (local government units). Kung
constructive, okay lang naman,” Pasig City Sotto said in an interview with GMA
News’ 24 Oras last March 19.
“Pero
kasi kami dito sa Pasig, ‘pag may nakikita po kaming magagandang practice sa
ibang LGU, ginagaya rin po namin,” Sotto
explained.

He notes that of the anti-panic buying ordinance
Valenzuela city implemented which they also adopted the same for the city of
Pasig.
“Kailangan po ‘yong mga LGU, hindi po dapat negatibo
‘yong komparison, kundi magtulungan na lang po kami,” the mayor said. “Let’s
copy each others’ best practices,”
Sotto was put into a hot seat when he allowed as an
exception the use of tricycles in his jurisdiction which was a direct violation
of the guideline as indicated in the enhance community quarantine where all
public transport should stop operation, and to top it all his act was compared
to that of Manila Mayor Isko Moreno whose use of e-tricycles were upheld since
they were used by the City Hall used exclusively for ferrying hospital
personnel by dispatch and not to roam around the streets looking for
passengers.
