Manila Boat Club offers rowing experience along Pasig River
Excerpt
Bea Dolores, a heritage advocate, had always found herself too clumsy to even sit on a sculling boat without falling into the Pasig river. On a quiet Sunday morning, however, she was surprised that while sitting in a small boat just inches from the water, she was able to row with a renewed relationship with the river, long seen as a polluted and dead waterway.
