CEBU CITY, Philippines — Cebu City Mayor Michael Rama welcomed the announcement of the World Health Organization (WHO) that COVID-19 is no longer a Public Health Emergency of International Concern. Rama said this is good for tourism on the island, including the two grandest festivals 'Pasigarbo sa Sugbo,' organized by the Cebu Provincial government, and the anticipated 'Sinulog,' of the Cebu City government. This will also give the local government units (LGUs) the freedom to implement what is best under the utmost local autonomy, Rama said.
