Excerpt
The government body spearheading the rehabilitation of Boracay has formally turned over the management of its unfinished tasks on the island to the local governments in Aklan province. In a ceremony on the island on June 16, the Boracay Inter-Agency Task Force (BIATF) turned over the responsibility of the rehabilitation of the island to the Aklan provincial government and the municipal government of Malay, where the 1,032-hectare island is located. “We will be turning over the responsibility to the [local government] but we will not stop monitoring all the rehabilitation projects we have implemented since the closure of Boracay,” Acting Environment Secretary Jim Sampulna told reporters.
