Bacolod City – Mayor Marxlen dela Cruz of Don Salvador Benedicto, Negros Occidental ordered the police to investigate the riders who displayed an “immoral placard.”
Dela Cruz denounced the motorcycle riders who held a placard with lewd words while passing through the streets of the town early this week.
In a public post on social media, de la Cruz said the town is the summer capital of Negros Occidental and those inciting immorality are not welcome.
“Everybody is welcome to our humble municipality to see the great gift of nature, the scenic views…provided, visitors must be RESPECTFUL,” the mayor posted on DSB’s Facebook page.
“We do not tolerate unwanted attitudes from tourists, whether local or foreign, and we condemn immoral acts even only a mere gesture of it, like displaying posters that incite immorality,” he added.
A picture of the unidentified motorcycle riders holding a placard soliciting sex in exchange for rice went viral on Facebook early this week.
“To the culprits of the unwanted immoral act, our investigators are doing everything to determine your identities. And once identified, we promise we will make you feel the claws of law,” dela Cruz said.
He also said that the culprits will be declared “Persona Non Grata” and will be barred from entering the town.
Dela Cruz said that DSB local government officials are working hard to promote good governance and to instill morally upright attitude among the residents.
Meanwhile Toboso Mayor Richard Jaojoco on Friday offered a PHP20,000 reward to those who can provide information on the identities of the riders.
Toboso is adjacent to DSB and are interconnected by the tourism highway in northern Negros.
