Cimatu, also chairman of the Manila Bay Interagency Task Force, vowed to continue the government’s efforts to clean the waters of the historic bay. This after water samples were taken last February 8, 2021 from 21 stations surrounding the Manila Bay have shown significantly lower fecal coliform from the annual average of 7.16 million most probable number per 100 milliliters (mpn/100ml) in 2020 to only 4.87 million mpn/100ml at present.en
