The Metro Manila Council (MMC) is set to release guidelines on the firecracker ban to be implemented in the National Capital Region (NCR) as part of its efforts to minimize the number of injuries caused by the misuse of firecrackers during New Year
During the joint session of the MMC and the Regional Development Council (RDC) which he co-chairs, MMC President Francis Zamora said that the Metro Manila mayors will convene to discuss the guidelines they will implement regarding the firecracker ban which was first imposed by former President Rodrigo Duterte in 2017.
“Magkakaroon ng designated firecracker areas. Pero depende din ‘yan sa pagkakasunduan ng mayors kasi each city will have its own designated fireworks area para iwas syempre sa aksidente ngayong bagong taon,” Zamora said.
In December last year, the PNP released the names and brands of allowed and prohibited firecrackers and pyrotechnics under RA 7183 and EO 28.
Meanwhile, the prohibited firecrackers are the following: Watusi, Piccolo, Pop pop, Five Star, Pla-pla, Lolo Thunder, Giant Bawang, Giant Whistle Bomb, Atomic Bomb, Super Lolo, Atomic Triangle, Goodbye Bading, Large-size Judas Belt, Goodbye Philippines, Goodbye Delima, Bin Laden, Hello Columbia, Mother Rockets, Goodbye Napoles, Coke-in-Can, Super Yolanda; Pillbox; Mother Rockets; Boga; Kwiton; Kabasi; other overweight and oversized firecrackers and pyrotechnic devices (FCPD); all imported finished products; and other nonlabelled locally made FCPD
