| local.seafdecaqd.extract | Last week while in Singapore my son gave me an autographed book of Victor Mallet’s River of Life, River of Death. It is about the Ganges in India. That led us to talk about the Pasig River which is the equivalent of rivers in other countries. Indeed every civilization in the world can be said to have begun on river banks. The surprise was the story that the Pasig River would compete with the Yangtze River of China in reviving the beauty and usefulness of their two rivers. But the River Pasig against the Yangtze? It seemed impossible to win in such a competition. The competition was held in Sydney last Sunday and guess what – the seemingly impossible task for Filipinos to clean the Pasig – was done. We did it. We won against the Chinese cleaning the Yangtze. | en |
