Under the latest Inter-Agency Task Force (IATF) Guidelines and DTI MC-20-33, internet and pisonet cafés in areas under MGCQ can already operate at a 50% operational capacity, but limited to work and educational purposes only.

The City Government of Cagayan de Oro will continue to monitor establishments in order to ensure that these guidelines are strictly observed and complied with; failure to do so will result in the closure of the establishment.

The National IATF issued Resolution No. 38, dated May 22, 2020, which allows “other Category IV and all other establishments not permitted to operate under previous sections of these Guidelines” to operate “at a maximum of fifty percent (50%) operations capacity.”

According to the city guidelines: “While this basic requirement addresses a non-pharmaceutical intervention of social or physical distancing, it does not however, by itself, completely address the prevention of a possible spread of the Covid-19 virus between and among the customers and the staff of such establishments.”

Minimum public health standards shall be complied with at all times for the duration of the Modified General Community Quarantine, which is the current status of CDO.

Other non-pharmaceutical interventions are required for implementation in the entire city with respect to Internet Café and Pisonet operations. You may refer to the Preventive Measures below.
