San Miguel Corporation (SMC) is nearing completion of its massive river cleanup in Bulacan, having removed over 4.2 million tons of silt and waste. This effort, spanning 74 kilometers of waterways, is the largest volume extracted in SMC’s Luzon-wide initiative. The project, part of SMC’s “Better Rivers PH” advocacy, comes at no cost to the government or taxpayers. It has been running since 2020, and previously covered the Tullahan, Pasig, and San Juan rivers in Metro Manila, among others.
