An advocacy group has urged the Cebu City Government and utility providers to improve infrastructure to protect water supply from the Metropolitan Cebu Water District (MCWD) and to address persistent sanitation problems at the Pasil Fish Port and the South Road Properties (SRP). In a statement, the Cebu Electricity Rights Advocates (Cera) said unmanaged waste at the fish port continues to pose serious public health and environmental risks. The group called out the large tarpaulins that were installed during the Asean Tourism Forum 2026 to hide floating garbage and visible pollution.
