San Miguel Corporation has expanded its “Manukang Bayan on Wheels” program to widen food availability and accessibility in several Metro Manila areas during the enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) period. “We thought of expanding our Manukang Bayan on Wheels to somehow lessen the time people spend lining up at stores to buy chicken,” Ang said. “Also, doing this will allay fears of food supply shortage. As I’ve said before, there is no reason to panic as we have enough food supplies to last way beyond the quarantine,” he added. Ang earlier said that SMC food facilities will be in operation 24/7 to ensure stable food supplies in the country for at least six months.
