It's taking too long for DOLE to resolve this issue. This is an open-and-shut case. No safety officer and medical team onsite. Fine and suspend GMA and its contractors. Done. JusticeForEddieGarcia

PinkyAmador Yan din ang tingin ko. Bakit pinayagang na magtatakbo ang isang matanda kung pwede naman gumamit ng body double?
Excited for gmanews to report this.
