00:00 The projects in Manila Bay could have a different effect to those around it.
00:05 That's one of the target areas that the Manila Bay Development Authority is planning to build.
00:11 Tina Panginiban Perez was able to learn from this.
00:14 The House Committee on Government Enterprises and Privatization inspected Manila Bay earlier.
00:23 It is now the site of the proposed plan to be built by the Manila Bay Development Authority
00:28 along with the duties of the proposed occupation,
00:31 to monitor the projects in Manila Bay and to ensure that these are not destroyed in the future.
00:38 We have a mandate in the order of the Supreme Court
00:41 that all the waterways and Manila Bay must be cleaned.
00:45 All the waterways of Metro Manila pass through here.
00:48 There is no specific authority that is really asking for a case
00:51 on who is really responsible for this.
00:54 According to Olivares, there are more than 140 local governments around Manila Bay.
01:00 Each has its own project.
01:02 According to the proposed Manila Bay Development Authority,
01:05 there will be a master plan for Manila Bay
01:08 along with the considered powers of the occupation to cancel the project
01:13 and transfer to the informal settlers in Manila Bay.
01:17 The proposal is supported by some members of the committee.
01:21 We are from the coastal areas of Pampanga
01:24 and we are the ones who are affected by the rain every rainy season.
01:28 So it's vitally important for us to take care of Manila Bay
01:32 because this is where the water will come out from the entire central Luzon.
01:35 The committee approved the plans for the Manila Bay Development Authority
01:40 after the State of the Nation address in July.
01:43 Olivares also believes that Dolomite Beach should remain in Rojas Boulevard.
01:49 It's a beautiful place. Our local tourists go there.
01:54 So we will maintain it and keep it well kept.
