The Quezon City government has joined the campaign of the National Commission for Culture and Arts (NCCA), Philippine Education Theater Association (PETA) and the Pasig River Rehabilitation Commission (PRRC) that targets to save the Pasig River through culture and arts.

Students and officials from the city’s 142 barangays participated in NCCA’s “Taga-Alog 2019, Ilog Pasig: Sulong! Lusong!” that promotes Metro Manila’s primary waterway as a space for cultural identity and collective memory and elevating the campaign beyond awareness and capacity building initiatives.

QC Task Force Solid Waste Collection, Cleaning, and Disposal Services Management- Special Cleaning Section chief Manny Rios acknowledged that QC is a Pasig River “waste contributor” as most of the city’s waterways flow towards the river. Rios said the city government is on the right track to support the Pasig River clean-up drive by ensuring the cleanliness of the city’s waterways.

For Rolynn Elenga, a student of Ernesto Rondon High School, the lecture-performances helped her understand the importance of protecting the environment.
