Concepcion: Mall and building owners support ‘safe spaces,’ targets 80% herd immunity in workplaces
In a meeting with the country’s major mall and building owners, Presidential Adviser for Entrepreneurship and Go Negosyo Founder Joey Concepcion garnered support for his proposal to champion and to finally establish “safe spaces” as a means to create herd immunity in areas where the private sector has control like office buildings, factories, mall, etc. This so-called ‘safe spaces’ means achieving around 80% fully vaccinated people in buildings and workplaces to bring back its operational capacity from the current 50% to close to full capacity. Various suggestions were brought forward in the said meeting which includes President and CEO of Filinvest Land Inc. Josephine Yap, Chairman of the Executive Committee of SM Prime Hans Sy, Chairman of Ayala Property Management Corp. Bobby Dy, CEO of Alliance Global Inc. Kevin Tan, President and CEO of Robinsons Land Corp. Frederick Go, and Senior Vice President For Mixed-Use, HRB/Niche and Retail of Filinvest Land Inc. Joey Santos.
