But the article said even the earlier order didn't apply to "foreign" fast food operators.
Calling Jollibee, calling Jollibee...
Jolibee, the symbol that peace is at hand....

Happy St. Martha's day (July 29)
What does St. Martha have to do with Jollibee? Well, she is the patron saint of cooks and waitresses (also nurses and caregivers)
The Davinci types and the radical feminists love Mary Magdalen (and tend to hate Mary, Jesus' mom) but they also tend to ignore Martha, Mary's sister.
Martha is best known for telling her sister off for sitting and listening to Jesus when there was a meal to be cooked. Jesus told her that listening was more important than cooking, since listening led to wisdom. Mary therefore is the saint of contemplatives or others who pray and meditate or study to seek the Ultimate Truth.
Like most of us who feel doing useful things is more valuable than sitting around praying,
Sister Mary Martha puts them straight:
Martha is the first person to actually figure out just who Jesus really is. On top of that, when Martha announces that she believes Jesus to be the Messiah, the Son of God, she says she has always believed that. That means she knew she was waiting tables for the Messiah and she thought that it was important to give the Messiah a nice dinner... apparently, unlike her sister Mary, Martha could listen to Jesus and get dinner on the table...
heh. I guess that makes her the patron saint of "multi-tasking" too...

Trivia question on St. Martha:-----------------------
The original "Joy of Cooking" cookbook had her on it's cover.

Navettes, a French tea cake, are given that name because they resemble the boat which, according to a local legend, brought Martha and her sister to France. Recipe at LINK
I tried to find a video on how to make them, but they are all in French.
But I did run across this video
This video is from a Pampanga parish:
