'Clean up waste or risk getting closed'
Excerpt
President Rodrigo Duterte ordered operating near the Manila Bay to observe environmental rules by installing water treatment facilities or risk being closure. In a speech during the Barangay Summit on Peace and Order at the Cuneta Astrodome in Pasay City, Duterte said the establishments should do something with their waste as they were ordered to start the cleanup on the heavily polluted body of water. "Whether they like it or not, lahat itong, itong mga hotel, 'yung palabas niyong mga tae ng mga turista, lagyan niyo ng water treatment kung hindi pasarahan ko iyan," Duterte said.
