local.seafdecaqd.extract | Running through Iloilo City, the Iloilo River is a source of life, sustenance, and pride. It supports rich biodiversity, including various fish species like the bulgan (sea bass) and managat, while also providing a livelihood for fishermen who rely on the river’s bounty to feed their families.
