                    [Summary] => The Quezon City government is bracing for the rainy season with the resumption of its "Sagip Batis" program, which involves the massive cleanup of the city’s river channels and other water tributaries.


Mayor Feliciano Belmonte Jr. has mobilized about 1,000 barangay volunteer-workers to clear the city’s rivers, creeks and esteros of garbage and other debris in a bid to prevent the unnecessary loss of lives and properties brought about by flashfloods during heavy downpours, especially in the city’s low-lying areas.
