The Commission on Election (Comelec) is urging restaurants, resorts and bars in Boracay to apply for an exemption on
liquor ban that will take effect on May 9-10.
Atty. Ian Lee Ananoria, Aklan provincial Comelec officer, said to date, only Shangrila Resort has applied with their office and have been granted approval.
“The deadline of submission of
liquor-ban exemption is set on May 7 of this year so I am calling bar owners in this resort island to apply,†Ananoria said.
The Comelec prohibits selling and drinking of liquor a day and during the election in public places.
Those who will be caught drinking will be arrested by the police and will be penalized in accordance with the Comelec regulations. - PNA
