“Mayor Benjamin B. Magalong pwede po ba magpatulong sa pag call ng attention ng DOT at DOTr sa pagkuha namin ng TA kasi mag iisang linggo na po kaming naghihintay para mabigyan kami ng vehicle details at nang makapag applly ng TA pero hanggang ngayon is maghintay lang din ang sagot sa amin dahil wala pa po daw silang ma provide na vehicle para sa amin. Paano pa po kami makapag process ng TA nito mayor eh ilang araw na lang if may byahe na sa June, flight na namin tapos umaabot ng hanggang 3 days bago makuha ang TA. Pinapapunta kami sa athletic bowl eh ang iba naman na nag aaply dun for TA is within Luzon province lang ang alis na pupunta lang ng Manila kasi may sadya at babalik rin. Stranded local tourist po kami taga Cebu at looking forward na makauwi na po kami sa darating na June 2 (as our latest rebooked flight schedule). Hindi rin namin alam kung saan pa kami pupunta para makahingi ng tulong at assistance. Vanessa, May 27, 2020.
