Sec. Roque calls for cooperation on Manila Bay rehabilitation

Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque is prepared to be the first to swim in Manila Bay once its rehabilitation is completed.

In an interview, Secretary Roque shared that many residents want to enjoy the area. He wished that everyone will continue to cooperate for the rehabilitation of Manila Bay.

The issue on the “crushed dolomite boulders” placed on the stretch of the bay has yet to be settled. However, the Spokesperson admitted that he and President Rodrigo R. Duterte have not yet discussed the matter. Sec. Roque reiterated that it is only part of the project of Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) even before the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
