Boracay Island will officially reopen to the general public on October 26, Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu said on Wednesday. Cimatu made the announcement only less than three months after the popular island resort was closed to the public for six months starting April 26 for rehabilitation. Apart from these, the task force also worked on easing the traffic flow in the island, enforcing the rule of law, engaging the stakeholders and the public through an effective domestic and global communications strategy, and crafting and implementing a medium-term comprehensive ecosystem rehabilitation and recovery program.
