via Philippine News Agency, 26 August 2021: The Mayor of Philippines’ Quezon City says she is open to the prospect of having an archaeological museum in her city.
Mayor Joy Belmonte is open to having Quezon City host a public archeological museum, as Antique Representative Loren Legarda suggested, to help promote knowledge about the country’s heritage and cultural evolution.
“If (the) national government is willing to have a branch museum in Quezon City, as you know my first love is heritage management, we’ll be happy to host something like that,” she said Thursday during the “Stories for a Better Normal” online discussion on urban mobility.
She said Quezon City already has a museum of social history at the Quezon Memorial Circle.
However, she said that Quezon City doesn’t have an archeological museum as the area has few archeological sites.
