No ATM, No problem! Pakulo ng bangkong ito para sa customers, umani ng mga papuri!



As people continue to struggle amid COVID-19 crisis and Enhanced Community Quarantine, a lot of dilemmas are starting to arise, such as hunger due to very limited access to food. Aside from this, the checkpoints that you have to get pass through just to get outside of your time is totally no joke.

That is why when the notable Pasig mayor Vico Sotto launched a project called "Mobile Palengke" to cater his people who lives far away from their market and can not go due to the travel ban, even tricycles. His Mobile Palengke that is carried by a truck travels all around the city, containing all of the goods they would sell in the same price they would get from the market.

It was a total relief for the residents, and later on it was also implemented by Valenzuela mayor Rex Gatchalian, who was very humble on acknowledging Sotto's idea on Mobile Palengke.


And it seems like the trend with deliveries and mobile restaurants are being high during ECQ, that is why this certain bank from Caloocan executed almost the same idea, by delivering the ATMs right in front of the barangays.

Philippine National Bank, who was commended by everyone by its initiative on moving closer on the people who were having a hard time accessing automatic telling machines, started their "Bank on Wheels" project and is travelling around the city.

According to Sarah Mari who posted this on her Facebook account, PNB's move was a great help for everyone in Caloocan.




“Sa mga nahihirapan mag-withdraw diyan dahil mahaba pila, may pa Bank on Wheels si PNB, any bank puwede naman kaka–try ko lang. Katapat lang ng PTT Zapote,” Sarah wrote.

Are you also having a hard time due to far ATMs in your place? What can you say about this story? If you are around Caloocan and wishes to use Bank on Wheels, Sarah stated that they are particularly parked in Zapote, Camarin Caloocan City.
