Kalibo police chief supt. Arnold Ardiente warned illegal and transient ambulant vendors to secure business permits or face apprehension by law enforcers.
According to Ardiente, ambulant vendors from nearby provinces of Negros Occidental and Iloilo are peddling their wares without the necessary permits from the local government unit of Kalibo, Aklan.
The drive against ambulant vendors without proper permits was renewed following the apprehension of street and sidewalk vendors last week in strategic places around the Kalibo Pastrana Park.
“The peddlers are common sight during the Christmas season and the Ati-Atihan festival where they display their wares, thus, blocking the sidewalks and vehicular traffic in Poblacion Kalibo,” Ardiente added.
He also directed his men to closely monitor ambulant vendors who sell their goods around the capital town of Kalibo during the celebration of the 796th Santo Niño Ati-Atihan Festival on the 3rd week of January next year.
“Ambulant vendors again sprouted in the streets of Kalibo to take advantage of the holiday season and the coming Kalibo festival, but those hard-headed vendors should obey existing laws before they are allowed to continue plying their trade,” Ardiente stressed.
