MANILA, Philippines - The city government of Taguig has joined forces with the Philippine Coast Guard for a year-long cleanup drive aimed at reducing the volume of garbage in the city.
In a statement issued yesterday, the city government said the project, called “Love a Clean City,” is also supposed to curb the spread of diseases.
“We need to help each other in cleaning our environment. If our surroundings, canals and other waterways are clean, we can avoid certain illnesses and prevent flooding caused by garbage (blocking waterways),” Mayor Laarni Cayetano said.
