LTFRB's PUV Contact Tracing: A Privacy Disaster in the Making? – Manila Bulletin

Published June 28, 2021, 9:32 AM
The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) issued Memorandum Circular No. 2021-041 last 21 June 2021 requiring all PUV (public utility vehicle) operators and drivers to register with the StaySafePH contact tracing platform, create their QR Code, and have their QR Codes posted inside and at entrances of their vehicles. The said memo also requires all commuters to use the QR Codes to help combat the spread of the COVID-19 virus.

An LTFRB representative confirmed that the directive includes both regular taxi cabs, GrabCar, and Angkas aside from the usual PUVs – jeepneys and buses.
The Memorandum Circular mandates all PUV operators to immediately shift to the use of StaySafePH from the previous manual filling-up of contact tracing form – something that is only implemented to PUVs originating at certain terminals. According to the LTFRB, all data obtained by the contact tracing app will be made available to them, subject to the Data Privacy Act of 2012. The government agency is also requiring all PUV operators and drivers to coordinate with StaySafePH for assistance in collecting and using the data obtained.

DOH Rejects StaySafe Contact Tracing App — Contact Tracing Czar – Manila Bulletin

Published May 7, 2021, 9:08 AM
More than a year into the current COVID-19 pandemic, the Philippines has yet to establish a working nationwide contact tracing system. Local government units (LGUs), government agencies, and even private enterprises began developing their own contact tracing apps and systems as early as March 2020. Some of these contact tracing apps/systems are working, while some are just for show (in an attempt to convince the Inter-Agency Task Force on Emerging Infectious Diseases (IATF) in opening a particular industry while the places in the country are in a particular community quarantine).

Last month, a Joint Memorandum Circular (JMC) was signed by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI), the Department of Tourism (DOT), Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), Department of Health (DOH), and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) for the Safety Seal Certification Program. The certification program aims to increase public confidence in businesses as consumers are urged to patronize shops with a “safety seal” as issued by different government agencies under the JMC. One of the requirements for any business to be issued with a “safety seal” is for them to use the StaySafe system.

Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, January 31) — The penalty imposed on event organizer Tim Yap and the other attendees of his birthday celebration in Baguio City showed the unjust treatment of the government.
This according to some groups on the ₱1,500 penalty on Yap and other party attendees.
The group PISTON recalled the situation of one of its members during the height of the lockdown Elmer Cordero, a senior citizen who was detained seven days for violating protocol guidelines.
Cordero then had to post bail amounting to ₱10,000.
