Mayor Sara Duterte-Carpio confirmed on Monday that she will officially go on leave from October 5 to 8, 2021.
“It’s the same lakaw. It’s something that I need to,” the mayor said.
In April this year, the mayor announced that she will be on leave next month.
“And sa April na pud sunod tuig puhon,” she said.
It can be recalled that the mayor flew to Singapore for health reasons from April 6 to 10, 2021.
In a statement, Mayor Sara clarified that she was in Singapore for “personal health management.”
“I have a travel authority to Singapore from the DILG. The reason is personal health management,” she said.
The mayor also took a seven-day medical leave last year from September 28, 2020, to October 5, 2020 to travel outside the city.
Based on a memorandum, Vice Mayor Sebastian Duterte assumed the duties and responsibilities as acting mayor as mandated by law and oversee the overall operations of all city government/departments/officers, and perform such other duties as may be directed from time to time.
