The San Juan City local government, together with officials from Rockwell Land, led the ceremonial lighting of Santolan Town Plaza’s Christmas tree and decorations to usher in Christmas festivities despite the prevailing Covid-19 pandemic.
San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora and Rockwell Vice President Beaver Lopez spearheaded the lighting ceremony of the 10-meter tall Christmas tree adorned with 86 balls and 30,000 Christmas lights at 2,100 meters or 2.1 kilometers long.
“I thank Rockwell for its support to the City of San Juan during one of our darkest moments during the pandemic, with our city having reported the first local transmission of COVID-19 in the country. Your contribution has enabled us to fight the pandemic head on, especially with our vaccination program – number 1 in fully vaccinating our target population, number 1 in administering booster shots, and number 1 in administering pediatric vaccination,” Zamora said.
“Our hospital utilization rate is also low, where majority of Covid-19 patients in our hospitals are actually residents from other cities and provinces,” he added.
