Statement 1: Tabang ta sa Survey. Uyon ka ba nga ilugway (extend) ang pagsara sa atong BOHOL BORDERS hangtud sa Agosto 31, 2021?
Below are the netizens’ unedited responses, reactions and comments to Statement 1.
- from Fine Ardon: Yes!
- from Josefina Caballo: Ok ra pod Maam pero kaulion na gyud ko. Ang pinakasulbad gyud nga ang mga katawhan mosunod sa protocols.Naa pa man gud gihapon ang tapoktapok magpost pa gyud nga nangaon. . . .unya moreklamo kon unsa na pod mga lakang nga buhaton sa atong governo pastilan. .daghan pod maangin.
- from Rogie Suganob: Uyon kaayo ma’am.
- from Nino Guidaben:If it means saving people from the disasters experienced by other provinces. Mabuhi raman guro ta mangaon camote, saging ug uban pa. Makahuwat man siguro pod ang mga wala pa kauli hangtod makaingon na safe na musulod sa probinsya. Kay kung i abli unya maoy hinungdan sa pagsaka napod sa kaso sama sa nahitabo sauna… unsa may gamit sa pag abli kung ang imong mahal sa kinabuhi mangahurot kay nangasakit na? We always have sacrfices to take to save the greater majority… isnt it what our faith have taught us? To be selfless?
- from Lino Sumaylo: A big big NO!
- from Jb C Twentyseven: Uyon.
- from Joy Araco Bologa Gumangan: Uyon.

- from Rose Marie Casenas: Yes!
- from Felino Caro Columnas: Uyon kaayo ko.
- from Ted Lim: Yes!
- from Danilo Don-don Menorias: No way.
- from Amor Maria J. Vistal: Are we sure all borders are really closed?
- from Arnel Tumakay to Amor Maria J. Vistal: Suroya tanan boarders para matubag imong pangutana.
- from Amor Maria J. Vistal to Arnel Tumakay: Why the sarcastic answer? It is a relevant question from a citizen. Do not shoot the messenger. When we stop asking, we resign to inept governance.
- from Arnel Tumakay to Amor Maria J. Vistal: Closed man gud wala bya flights…
- from Nasjo Inting: Yes!
- from Cecille Requierme: Uyon.
- from Maria Corazon Lim:Uyon kaayo Ma’am.
- from Rita Acido Libay: Yes!
- from Marcosita Bual Bernaldez Jabaybay: Uyonkayo.
- from Merleyeslam Eyes: Yes, if posible para dli gayod mokoyanap ang delta kay murag serious ang setwasyon sa Cebu.
- from Benjie Oliva: With Covid Delta variant already inside Bohol I totally agree for border closure. Maniguro ta kay lisod na.
- from Bernadette Zamora Froilan: Yes, I do.
- from Frances Ann Rama Temblor: Yes!
- from Bai Madrinan: Uyon ug strict implementation sa protocol. Para na sa atung kaayuhan.
- from Jess-Jecjec Orias Amora-Alo: Yes!
- from Jeanine Valerie Orig Borromeo: Agree!
- from Maricar Romero: Uyon Mam.
- from Marianne Baluma Suan: It’s not a matter of closing boarders, it’s all about a more stricter implementation of health protocols and a strict no more gatherings policy.
- from Zenith Tenebro: Marianne Baluma Suan, true and the more people are vaccinated the better chance we have of controlling the spread of this virus. Life must go on. We can’t keep on hiding and let fear control us. We have to learn how to deal with this enemy together to get a better outcome.And the irony of this closing borders is (no disrespect intended) we restrict people who were swabbed and tested negative and mostly now vaccinated to enter while the sad reality is we have people from within who refused vaccination and did not want to be tested because they can’t afford it even if they have symptoms or they are afraid of testing positive and be quarantined and can’t go to work anymore. How many people can one who is positive but asymptomatic can infect in the course of the day without even knowing it? Yet, we wonder, diin man na gikan ang Delta variant nga serado man Ta air and sea? Namaybay pod siguro! For real, Mas mahadlok ko aning akong neighbor nga Dili pa bakuna kaysa fully vaccinated returning OFW!But seriously, let’s just be considerate of each other so we can’t mess this up more kay nagka dugay, nagkadaghan na man hinuon ni and its been more than a year. There must be something we are not doing right generally or individually.
