00:00 The reclamation project in Manila Bay continues while the government is yet to decide which project will be stopped.
00:07 We have on the spot, Ian Cruz.
00:09 Ian?
00:12 Yes, Connie. Manila Bay will be saved.
00:16 That's what the voices of different groups in the leadership of the PNP and One Pawikan
00:23 to stop the reclamation in Manila Bay.
00:27 Despite the Secretary General of the Ministry of Environment, Cabadee France,
00:30 the President must release a list of which projects should be continued and which should be stopped.
00:37 The President said that only one of the reclamation projects is allowed to continue and that all should be suspended.
00:43 Until now, the reclamation in Manila Bay is still continuing because according to the Philippine Reclamation Authority,
00:48 they are still waiting for the communication from the Office of the President to know which project can continue and which cannot.
00:55 They will only be able to give notice to the LGU and joint venture firms that their operation should be suspended.
01:02 According to Cabadee, the San Miguel Corporation may be only building an airport in Bulacan,
01:07 and they think it is possible for the project to continue.
01:09 Cabadee said that even if the reclamation is stopped, the many fishponds that are inhabited by fish will be destroyed.
01:15 That's why it is difficult to catch fish.
01:19 The group also blames the excessive flooding in Bulacan and Pampanga.
01:24 We will do our best to get the SMC and other companies that are involved in the reclamation projects in Manila Bay.
01:32 That's the latest from Quezon City. Back to you, Connie.
01:35 Thank you very much, Ian Cruz.
