In the picture is the entrance to the mini mall by the gate of our village. This is the back entrance that they closed for reasons unknown to me. We have to walk to the front entrance which is open and no guard to get the temperature. Closing this back entrance is like making us walk more. Maybe the officials of this mini mall think that we need more exercise, waheehee.

That is also my question. It is all right if there is a guard to check the incoming customers. But there is none, the front entrance is just an open entrance. No logic there.

@lgm92881719 my take on the situation is that it will last longer than we expect.

Is the back entrance usually open?

Yes, that's where I pass going to the wet market. I still don't know why they closed it. Maybe tomorrow I can ask around. I am not going out today, it is my day off, waheehee.

@lovebuglena a wet market is like a food court with different vendors. That is where we buy fresh vegetables, fish and meat. In the supermarket there is no such fresh produce.

@Alexandoy Maybe they closed it for safety purposes. By the way, what's a wet market?

The guard said it is to have only 1 entrance as per the order of the community office called barangay.

I wonder if they were doing this for some sort of extra security reason? Maybe they are short on manpower to monitor the entrances? Just guessing?

My wife said the same that most businesses have laid off workers due to lack of income so maybe you are right in your opinion.

Exercise is good but please call me Alex. I don't want to be called "my friend" because of personal reasons. Thank you.

Maybe tomorrow when I go back there, I would ask around.

I am wondering until now. But I guess they have something in mind for that.
