Farmers, fishermen and ordinary folk in two in two districts of Laguna have urged President Benigno Simeon Aquino III to give the green light to the suspended ₱18.7-billion Laguna de Bay Rehabilitation Project. In a petition dated September 13, 2010, the petitioners, which included the 104 people from the first district of the province who called for the immediate implementation of the project last July 29, 2010, reiterated their firm belief that the dredging of the 94,900-hectare lake would redound to their benefit and to the 13 million people living around the lake and in the National Capital Region (NCR).
