CEBU CITY, Philippines — The four mayors of Camotes Group of Islands have “strongly urged” the Bureau of Animal Industry to spare this northern Cebu islands from the policy on the African Swine Fever color coding and other restrictions.
This was after Ormoc City Mayor Torres issued Executive Order No. 2023-0031 or “An Order Prohibiting the Entry of Live Pigs, Pork, and Pork-Related Products and By-Products, Whether Fresh, Frozen, Processed or Cooked, Including But Not Limited to Frozen Boar Semen from Areas with Reported African Swine Fever Cases into the City of Ormoc and Regulating the Entry of the Same from Areas Without ASF Case,” on March 24, 2023.
In a press conference on Thursday, June 8, 2023, which was attended by Gov. Gwendolyn Garcia and four mayors of Camotes Group of Islands, Poro Mayor Edgar Rama said that the recent executive order of the City of Ormoc had a significant adverse effect on their hog industry. Sun Shimura, Daanbantayan mayor and LMP-Cebu president, said the LMP-Cebu would file a resolution to also reach out to other mayors for the same course of action.
To recall, last March 1, 2023, BAI released positive results confirming the blood samples of pigs taken from pigs from the slaughterhouse in Carcar City.
