It depends on where they will come from, the police said Friday.. Cavite Governor Jonvic Remulla earlier said tourists <a href="https://www.facebook.com/263452323765094/posts/3101074313336200/">do not need a travel pass</a> to visit Tagaytay, while the province is under MGCQ or modified general community quarantine, the least stringent of 4 lockdown levels. However, a travel pass is only unnecessary to and from between 2 areas that are both under MGCQ, said Lt. Gen. Guillermo Eleazar, chief of Joint Task Force COVID-19 Shield, citing guidelines from the inter-agency task force.Metro Manila, Bulacan, and Batangas are still under GCQ, a step above Cavite&#x27;s lockdown level. &quot;Pag galing ka d’yan, hindi ka puwedeng pumunta doon (Tagaytay) nang walang travel authority,&quot; he told ANC. (If you&#x27;re from there, you cannot go to Tagaytay without travel authority.)Travel authority requires a health certificate and coordination with the local government to where one is heading, he said. &quot;Hintayin siguro natin mag-MGCQ ang Metro Manila at hindi na kailangan ang travel authority,&quot; Eleazar advised tourists from the capital. (Perhaps we should just wait for Metro Manila to be placed under MGCQ so that a travel authority will no longer be necessary.) &quot;What we are trying to prevent is the influx of unauthorized tourists in Tagaytay… I know na sinasabing medyo hassle iyan, but the point is this is a control [measure],&quot; he added. (I know they say that a travel authority is a bit of a hassle.)
