After Boracay, will Manila Bay follow?
Excerpt
Last week, a roundtable discussion (RTD) on the status of compliance by government agencies covered by the continuing mandamus issued by the Supreme Court to rehabilitate the Manila Bay was convened by the Women in Maritime Philippines (WIMAPHIL). The event was In celebration of the 11th founding anniversary of WIMAPHIL and was in keeping with its advocacy to promote marine environment protection. Representatives of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG), Philippine Ports Authority (PPA), Philippine National Police – Maritime Group (PNP-MG) presented initiatives and targets thus far accomplished. The discussions centered on understanding the ongoing efforts of the “mandamus agencies” with the end in view of finding areas where WIMAPHIL would be able to collaborate either with the Manila Bay rehabilitation team or with any of the pertinent agencies as may be necessary.
