Wrong or right, Filipinos spent a break at a beach made of dolomite

Last weekend was unlike any other as Metro Manila residents found themselves frolicking on the beach, waiting for the sunset, and feeling alive as if there was no pandemic. No one can blame them since the majority of people were cooped up in their homes for more than a year.

Whatever the debate might be brewing for so long between the pro- and anti-dolomite beach must not be in the thoughts of those who were seen at this beach last weekend. Social media feeds were inundated with photos of the pinkish white beach sand and the famous Manila Bay sunset. Those interviewed by a television crew at the beach were all profuse with their praises, with an elderly man in tears saying that this was his first time to see Manila Bay like this after all these years.

This must be the same sentiment of people who went to Divisoria, Quiapo, the malls, and the parks. Last weekend saw a surge of people going out for leisure activities and shopping. More cars were on the road so there was traffic buildup in some places, something which we “missed” during the lockdowns. More families were dining in restaurants or even going out of Manila to visit Bulacan, Batangas, especially popular destinations such as Tagaytay and Nasugbu.

Much shrieking over a teeny weenie area of Manila Bay Glad folks enjoyed a day by the dolomite beach City should plant mangroves around it ASAP though else it will be washed away fast by the sea come a big storm RT
