Excerpt

If esteros - and eventually, Pasig River - are clean, the country's economy will improve. This was what Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC) chairperson Gina Lopez underscored as she led a familiarization tour of Estero de Paco and Extero de San Miguel in Manila for media yesterday morning, in an effort to show the agency's aggressiveness to pursue the seven-year Pasig River rehabilitation program. "The conjecture here is that when you clean the esteros, the economy will bloom," said Lopez.
