Excerpt

The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) will continue retrieving this year forestlands and wetlands at world-famous Boracay Island in Aklan province.“This is the second phase of Boracay’s rehabilitation,” said Franciso Milla Jr., the newly installed DENR regional director for Western Visayas. Milla, who succeeded Jim Sampulna who is now DENR assistant secretary for Western Mindanao, emphasize how Boracay still needs a lot of work despite several accomplishments after the initial six-month closure last year.
