HOTEL Sogo has offered free room accommodations to frontline health workers fighting the spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19). In close coordination with different local mayors and hospitals, Hotel Sogo has undertaken this bold move under its Corporate Social Responsilibity (CSR) program – Sogo Cares.
