Following the seizure, Manila City Mayor Isko Moreno ordered the Bureau of Permits and Licenses Office to close all shops selling illegally imported meat products. “Ang lahat ng tindahan na magca-cater ng ilegal na karne, lalo na ‘yang galing sa China na hindi allowed, babala ko po sa inyo, iwi-withdraw namin ang business permit ninyo,” the mayor said.
“Kahit pa nagtitinda kayo ng hindi ipinagbabawal pero naglalagay naman kayo ng mga ipinagbabawal, ipapasara namin ang inyong buong negosyo,” he stressed.
