As we coordinated with them, we asked them that if the increases are minimal, maybe it\u2019s possible not to implement these since we are in a pandemic,\u201d Lopez said in Filipino during the Laging Handa public briefing Monday. \u201cAnd we get positive feedback from them.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Meanwhile, Laban Konsyumer Inc.
