Manila’s Baywalk closed to tourists, swimmers
Abstract
Enter the abstract of the item.
Excerpt
The government has shut down the Baywalk along Roxas Boulevard to prevent the surge of sightseers and swimmers as the rehabilitation of Manila Bay continues. The move was done as an 11-year-old girl lies in critical condition after almost drowning and swallowing a large amount of water from the bay. Environment Undersecretary Benny Antiporda said the entire stretch of Baywalk from the US Embassy near Rizal Park to the Cultural Center of the Philippines, just past the Manila Yacht Club, was fenced off.
