It is significant that Wednesday also marked the fifth year of the declaration of the Negros Occidental Coastal Wetlands Conservation area as a RAMSAR site or Wetland of International Importance.

Lacson said he shares the award with all the 10 members of the Negros Occidental Coastal Wetlands Area Management Alliance from Bago City to the Ilog town. “The concern of our environment is a problem of global proportions, but reducing its adverse impacts must be done locally. This honor will definitely inspire and encourage us, together with all the stakeholders, to do better and do more in terms of good environmental governance,” he said.

The 2021 Galing Pook Awards is presented by the Galing Pook Foundation, SM Prime Holdings, and the Department of the Interior and Local Government – Local Government Academy.
