Liquor ban imposed in Muntinlupa for Bar exams
MANILA, Philippines — The city government of Muntinlupa will enforce a liquor ban in the vicinity of San Beda College-Alabang (SBCA) where Bar examinations will be held this month.
This is the first time that the Bar exams will be held for three days only: Sept. 17, 20 and 24.
The liquor ban will be enforced from 9 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Sept. 16, 17, 19, 20, 23 and 24.
All business establishments within the 500-meter radius from the SBCA will not be allowed to sell liquor to the public.
“This is to ensure the safety and well-being of the Bar examinees and their families,” Muntinlupa Mayor Ruffy Biazon said.
There are 14 testing centers nationwide for the Bar exams: six in Metro Manila, three each in Luzon and the Visayas and two in Mindanao.
The exams will be divided into six core subjects distributed in three days. Two subjects will be taken up per day – one in the morning and the other in the afternoon.
The SBCA was chosen as the national headquarters for the 2023 Bar exams, where the Supreme Court will be supervising the operations of other local testing centers.
