Some of my teammates cut off their rental apartments and moved to their homes which is still Metro Manila but just a bit far away.

One of the businesses affected by WFH setup alright. I make an argument that some companies do get to save more from leasing office space and less excuses from nonproductive employees calling in sick. But in general, a lot of people not showing up to work physically also means other businesses that profit from getting people present don't get to make money and it's a convoluted string of conflicted interest especially when politicians are part business owners affected by these changes.
