The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) welcomes the participation of several private firms in the govern­ment’s efforts to rehabilitate Boracay Island in Aklan. DENR Secretary Roy Cimatu re­cently signed memorandums of agree­ment (MOAs) with Coca-Cola Bever­ages Philippines Inc. and JG Summit Petrochemical Corp. (JGSPC) acknowl­edging their contributions in cleaning up the resort island. Coca-Cola donated a surf rake or a tractor-towed beach cleaner, while JGSPC is bringing back to life one of Boracay’s wetlands.
