                    [Summary] => The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority has called on the barangays and non-government organizations to lead the way in the promotion of ecological solid waste management systems in riverside communities.


During the recent Metro Manila Mayor’s Summit on the Pasig River Rehabilitation Program, the MMDA pointed out that illegal dumping remains the biggest problem of the program.


With a significant number of squatters still living along the riverbanks of the Pasig River, indiscriminate dumping of garbage in the river continues.

                    [Summary] => Four program loans of government worth about $500 million from the World Bank (WB) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) are in danger of being cancelled.


A Department of Finance (DOF) official said these program loans are now being reviewed to determine if the projects supposed to be funded by the loans will be abandoned.


The review is an offshoot of an earlier policy directive adopted by the government to cancel development projects funded through official development assistance (ODA) that are delayed for at least one-and-a-half years.
