Militant fishers’ group Pamalakaya on Wednesday refuted the claim of the DENR that the water quality of Manila Bay was “improving.”
water quality of Manila Bay was “improving.” Last week, the DENR said that the government’s ongoing rehabilitation efforts in the bay “appeared to be paying off” with the “gradual decrease in fecal coliform level since January 2019.
” But Pamalakaya called the DENR statement an attempt to “whitewash the failure of the rehabilitation by only looking at the surface level.” It noted that out of 30 ongoing reclamation projects in Manila Bay, 21 had received environmental compliance certificates from the DENR. —MARIEJO S. RAMOS
