It was an impressive number that turned out to run for the Pasig River today - more than 116,000! It just shows how much we want to help in revitalizing that important artery in our mega-city. At least now, the improvements are slowly being felt, and that the people and the local government are flexing their political muscles and telling river-side residents not to make the river their private toilet. They should also go after the factories along the river which are sources of pollutants - and check their compliance I guess the Ondoy floodings last year was a huge wake-up call for all of us, and that if we continue to pollute the environment around us, we won't get the last laugh at all! I'd love to see the Pasig river in its breathable, beautiful form, so that we can stroll along its riverbanks again, or ride the boats as commute in this very busy metropolis of ours.
