더 많은 OFW 귀환자 막탄세부국제공항을 통해 환승

More Filipino travelers from abroad expected to transit via MCIA

Local officials here in Cebu assured Filipino travelers from abroad transiting via the Mactan airport that the island-province has enough isolation rooms for their stay.
This developed after the Mactan Cebu International Airport (MCIA) temporarily stopped accepting flights carrying Returning Overseas Filipinos (ROFs) and Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs), for two days, when isolation rooms in hotels were nearing full-capacity levels.
Dr. Mary Jean Loreche, Department of Health in Central Visayas (DOH-7) spokesperson, said their agency had already coordinated with the concerned state bureaus and hoteliers on the matter.
“Some of them (transiting passengers from abroad) have already been released. OWWA (Overseas Workers Welfare Administration) is busy coordinating this with our BOQ (Bureau of Quarantine),” said Loreche in Cebuano.
“Once they (transiting passengers) have been released from their hotel rooms, definitely we still have enough rooms to accommodate (incoming travelers),” she added.

외국에서 체류했던 필리핀 이주노동자들이 더 많이 막탄세부 국제공항을 통해 필리핀으로 귀국할 전망이다.
막탄 세부 국제공항을 통해 입국하는 OFW를 위한 호텔 격리시설의 최대 수용 능력이 다시금 회복되었다고 평가되고 있다.
이러한 문제에 대해 중부 비사야지역 보건 당국과 세부 주정부, 그리고 지역의 호텔리어 대표자들은 이미 함께 만나 조율과정을 거쳤다.
이보다 앞서 IATF는 격리시설 부족을 이유로 막탄세부국제공항의 국제선 도착편을 제한하도록 권장하는 결의안을 발표한 바 있다.
