Hou told a news conference that he would strongly advise the city’s borough wardens against traveling abroad until quarantine measures are lifted, but “this is not an administrative order and I can only give moral advice.”The city has 1,032 borough wardens and none of the others has plans to travel abroad, he said. Wayao Borough Warden Lin Chi-fang talks to reporters at Taoyuan International Airport on Tuesday after returning from a trip to Spain and Portugal. The central government should prohibit all Taiwanese from traveling to areas for which a level 3 travel alert has been issued, he said. Taiwanese returning from countries with a level three warning should be screened thoroughly and a 14-day quarantine should be enforced, Hou said earlier during a New Taipei City meeting. Lin Chi-fang (林綺芳), warden for Jhonghe District’s (中和) Wayao Borough left on Tuesday last week with a group of 14 borough residents for Spain and Portugal, a source said.
