Property giant Megaworld is donating 1,000 liters of disinfectant alcohol to the Iloilo City Government for the use of its healthcare and medical personnel in various hospitals and public health centers, as the city is placed under Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ).
Morever, the Andrew Tan-led company will also distribute 3,000 grocery packs to the various barangays affected by the quarantine.
This also includes the families of construction workers in Iloilo Business Park that have been affected by the work stoppage due to the ECQ declaration in the city.
