Pasig River restoration cited
Excerpt
The Pasig River has been selected by the International River Foundation (IRF) as a finalist in the 2017 Thiess International Riverprize that recognizes and rewards organizations in countries with best river restoration and management programs. The IRF, comprised of river management experts and professionals from around the world, has taken notice and consideration of the rehabilitation efforts of the PRRC to bring the Pasig River back to its historically-pristine condition and all the hard work it has done in easement recovery, housing and resettlement, riverbanks development, solid and liquid waste management and public awareness projects, programs and activities.
