Excerpt

With the constant environmental conservation efforts being done by the local government units and the communities, Sarangani Bay’s coral ecosystem remains in “a good status, is healthy, and is improving,” Rolando Tuballes said. “Generally, the coral cover and reef condition in Sarangani Bay is good,” said Tuballes, provincial environment and natural resources officer. Tuballes described the coral ecosystem status as “improving because of the management options employed by local government units, national agencies, to include the Protected Area Management Board (PAMB), DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources), and the concerted efforts of the communities.”
