Nearly 400 cops to man 11 border control points in N. Ecija
Nueva Ecija will implement strict border control measures from August 6 to August 20, deploying nearly 400 police personnel across 11 checkpoints to curb the spread of COVID-19.
The checkpoints are situated at strategic entry and exit points of the province, including borders like Gapan City-San Miguel and Aliaga-Tarlac/CLLEX.
The implementation date for these strict border controls was postponed from August 1 to August 6 through Resolution No. 2.
This deferral was made in response to concerns raised by various sectors, as announced by Governor Aurelio Umali, chair of the Nueva Ecija Inter-Agency Task Force.
