DAVAO CITY , Philippines — The city government reopened the Roxas Night Market on Saturday, which was closed for almost six months due to  the community quarantine.

A handful of visitors attended the reopening and only a few food stalls were allowed to operate.

The number of security personnel tasked to secure the event was more than sufficient.

Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio said the Roxas Market was reopened to help vendors displaced by the pandemic recover.

The market is open seven days a week, from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m.

Carpio gave assuarance that security and health protocols would be observed in the area.

Filling out a contact tracing form will not be required when entering the market. Visitors will only be asked to show proof of identity and appropriate steps will be enforced.
