60 Pangasinenses stranded for 14 days at Tarlac-Pangasinan border

At least 60 Pangasinenses were stranded at the Tarlac-Pangasinan border for 14 days after being disallowed entry to their province.

These included construction workers, the elderly, and frustrated workers unable to travel due to the lockdown.

One stranded construction worker described their difficult situation, enduring rain, heat, and mosquitoes at the border.

Some stranded individuals, including senior citizens with hypertension, are still undergoing their mandatory 14-day quarantine before being fetched by their LGUs.

The provincial government and the municipality of Rosales are monitoring the health of those stranded.

Most of the stranded Pangasinenses came from the National Capital Region and Region 3.

The Province of Pangasinan is under an extended enhanced community quarantine until May 15.
