Excerpt

Aboitiz Group Through Aboitiz Foundation and AboitizPower business unit Davao Light and Power Company renewed its commitment to intensify conversation efforts for the marine turtle or pawikan particularly the critically endangered hawksbill turtle in Davao City. Aboitiz last month signed a memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and Davao City local government to establish a Pawikan Center- a rescue and hatchery facility at the Aboitiz Cleanergy Park. As part of this project, Aboitiz will also continue to plant endemic trees to maintain biodiversity in the area.
