As April begins, many Filipino devotees are preparing for the solemn observance of Holy Week.
00:05
In anticipation of the influx of travelers and churchgoers,
00:09
the Philippine National Police or PNP is set to enforce stricter security measures
00:14
in transport terminals, churches and other public areas across the country.
00:18
PTV correspondent Christian Bascones tells us more.
00:24
As the month of April begins, many devotees are now preparing for the observance of Holy Week.
00:29
One such clan is the Grisosoma family, owners of the image of La Fieta.
00:33
They have started early in preparing the religious image to be paraded during
00:37
Holy Week and in organizing prayer sessions.
00:51
According to them, their strong faith has greatly helped them in life,
00:54
especially during times of great difficulty.
00:56
For them, Holy Week is not just a tradition, but a time for reflection and a spiritual renewal.
01:27
Meanwhile, the Philippine National Police or PNP is also prepared to implement stricter
01:34
security measures for the upcoming Holy Week, according to PNP Spokesperson and
01:38
Information Office Chief Brigadier General Gene Fajardo. To ensure public safety,
01:43
PNP personnel will be deployed to several key locations, including transport terminals,
01:47
churches and other public places that are expected to be crowded during holiday.
01:56
We will also deploy police assistance to major transportation hubs and terminals,
02:04
because we expect many people will travel during the summer vacation.
02:10
Of course, because it's Holy Week, we will monitor churches and even tourist destinations.
02:20
Of course, we will also monitor the streets throughout the country, because even though we are
02:29
busy and we are focused on various campaign sorties, we cannot neglect these places of
02:37
convergence so that we will not get lost in the security and safety of our countrymen.
02:45
On the other hand, Ticketing Officer Shaira May Tulisana stated that they are expecting
02:50
a large influx of passengers this Holy Week.
02:52
We are expecting a large influx of passengers this Holy Week,
02:57
since this is the occasion for travelers to return to their provinces.
03:05
This is also the long week that they don't have to enter.
03:08
So this is their chance to return to their families in the province.
03:14
Because of this, she advised travelers to book their tickets early to avoid inconveniences,
03:18
long lines and possible fare increases.
03:21
So our advice to travelers is to plan and book earlier,
03:26
so that the fares and accommodations will be lower this time.
03:32
As our travel date is approaching, flights and accommodations will be more expensive.
03:40
Authorities continue to remind the public to be cautious and follow regulations to
03:44
maintain order and safety during Holy Week observance.
03:48
