Lim led city officials in the observance of the 46th anniversary of Land Bank with a clean up activity of the Manila Bay in collaboration with the Manila Ocean Park, the Diamond Hotel and the Manila Yatch Club, its former partner. The MOA was signed by seven organizations and establishments along the bay area. Last year, the Landbank signed a MOA with the Manila City Government, DENR, and MYC for the expansion of its annual clean-up program at the Manila Bay, which these partners renewed. The City will provide the debris from the bay and assist in the installation of the trash racks. The program, launched at the catch basin near the United States Embassy, is aimed at ensuring the sustainability of cleaning up and protecting the Manila Bay. Three trucks are provided daily to haul the debris from the bay, which Lim said were mostly man-made trash. Every Saturday and Sunday, 5 to 6 trucks hail away the debris. ?We bow our heads to LBP president Gilda Pico who is so good and with a golden heart in serving the city,? the Mayor said. He asked residents nearby to properly dispose their garbage and to keep their surroundings clean, especially the Baywalk for a beautiful environment. Signatories to this year?s MOA include Vanessa Ledesma Suatengco, general manager of Diamond Hotel; Dr. Jose L. Diaz, regional executive director of DENR-NCR; David Suarez, represented by Erlinda Gonzalez OIC of the DENR Manila Bay River Basin; Pico, president/CEO of Land Bank; Ildefonso G. Tronqued Jr. Commodore Manila Yatch Club; Lim Chee Yong, president of the Manila Ocean Park; Ruperto Nicdao Jr, president of the Manila Broadcasting Company, and Lim.
