Excerpt
The town of Dauin, the scuba diving and resort capital of Negros Oriental province, plans to adopt a municipality-wide zero waste policy in keeping with its thrust of being a sustainable tourist destination in Central Visayas. The municipal government led by Mayor Galicano Truita recently held a coastal cleanup which involved local officials, employees, security personnel, barangay volunteers and tourism stakeholders affiliated with the Dauin Resorts Association and the Negros Oriental Dive Association. The event gathered some 150 participants in eight barangays, and had a simultaneous underwater cleanup by volunteer scuba divers from the Philippine National Police and Bureau of Fire Protection.
