Adopt-an-estero

San Juan City Mayor Francis Zamora (second from left) joins Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu, Manila Water President and CEO Jose Rene Almendras, and other water officials in throwing ‘Mabuhay Balls,’ a mixture infused with microorganisms that will eat harmful bacteria to help fight the bad odor of the creek during the start of the activation of the Adopt-an-Estero program at Hoover St. Brgy Addition Hills, San Juan City. Manila Water signed a memorandum of agreement with San Juan City and DENR last year to rehabilitate the San Juan River.
