REVITALIZING OUR RIVERS: Senate President Franklin M. Drilon delivers a solidarity message for the attendees of the 2nd International River Summit, during its closing ceremonies held at the Marikina Hotel and Convention Center in Marikina City on Friday, November 21, 2014. Drilon, a known supporter of ongoing efforts to clean the Iloilo river, shared the achievements made by the people of Iloilo in revitalizing the river from its deteriorated state years ago. “I always say that if it can be done in Iloilo and Marikina, it can be done in other parts of the country as long as there is strong political will, support from the private sector and cooperation of the people. Now, more than ever, we need to link arms to revive our rivers, protect our environment and ensure a bright future for our people,” Drilon said. (PRIB Photo by Joseph Vidal, November 21, 2014)
