Taal eruption: Operating Tagaytay businesses may face closure

Dozens of businesses in Tagaytay have resumed operations a week into the eruption of Taal Volcano. But the Interior Department on Monday said the business permits of these establishments may be canceled for violating a national order.

"On our side sa DILG, we can send the Philippine National Police to close them down to ensure they follow the orders of no commercial operations at least within the 14 kilometer danger zone," Densing said in a briefing. Alert Level 4 remains in effect in Taal, indicating a potential hazardous eruption. Thousands of residents within the 14-kilometer radius of the volcano have been ordered to flee their homes and move to evacuation centers given the looming threat of a deadly explosion.Cavite Rep. Bambol Tolentino confirmed Mayor Tolentino — his wife — received the DILG memo, but insisted it's still the discretion of the local government.

Sasakay ba ng bus yung lava paakyatng tagaytay!!! Hahahaha. tanginang logic yan.

Right...are this people DILG have alternatives. ..people around taals vicinty who dont food what are thier action so far...mi ginawa b sila tas magbababa sila ng kautusan ipasara ang mga naghahanapbuhay...morons.

as a government officials. we should initiate conversation with partner agencies hindi na lang sana nagpapatigasan ng ulo. we are talking about the welfare of all the affected people and not just our own pride who is powerful or not.
