MANILA, Philippines — The Quezon City government has decided to terminate its contract with Zuellig Pharma Corporation's booking services, EzConsult, following a series of technical difficulties. "We have already given Zuellig ample time to improve their system upon their request and yet their system has crashed again for the 9th time. We don't want to cause undue stress to our constituents who only want to register for vaccination," Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte said in a statement late Tuesday night. But the technical difficulties experienced by Quezon City residents on Tuesday night were "the last straw," the city said. —Disclosure: Quezon City Mayor Joy Belmonte is a shareholder of Philstar Global Corp., which operates digital news outlet Philstar.com.
