Gubat sa Ciudad has no DOT accreditation
GUBAT SA CIUDAD – A resort in Caloocan that has opened despite the existing modified enhanced community quarantine (MECQ), does not have accreditation from the Department of Tourism (DOT).
“Upon verification, the resort was also found to be operating without DOT accreditation,” said DOT.
“The department stresses the importance of transacting with DOT-accredited establishments. The DOT accreditation is an assurance that a tourism enterprise has complied with the minimum standards for the operation of tourism facilities and services,” the department added.
It can be recalled that the resort went viral due to several hundred people immersed in their pool.
This is despite the fact that the opening of tourism establishments within the NCR Plus area is strictly prohibited due to the strict quarantine status.
The DOT commended the local government of Caloocan for the immediate closure of the Gubat sa Ciudad.
Those who went swimming in the said resort are opted to undergo swab testing to find out whether some might have contracted the coronavirus.
