Hundreds of People Flock Over Manila Bay for Picnic and Swimming

Sundays are meant for “family day.” And by that, it means either staying at home with the family or going out for recreational purposes.

As Manila Bay rehabilitation goes forward towards complete development, people consistently visit the place to see its regained beauty with their very own eyes.

Manila Bay on A Sunday Morning

This Sunday morning, people flock over Manila Bay. Pilipino Star Ngayon released a video clip showing people dipping on the shore of Manila Bay. Some are sitting on the rocks, enjoying the beautiful view. The bay looks almost full with visitors. Some are having a picnic on the before full of trash shore but now is pure sand and clean.

Kids are seen running around the area with their swimsuits on. Some are just looking over the calm waters to breathe fresh air. For many, it isn’t the typical day they used to see in Manila Bay.

Concerns

On the other hand, some netizens hope that people will be responsible enough to bring along their trash with them after the visit. Apart from that, some believe that the Manila Bay isn’t fully treated yet; hence, swimming should not be allowed.

Strict Implementation

Some netizens suggest that there should be a strict implementation in the Manila Bay to maintain its cleanliness. Days after the new look of Manila Bay went viral on social media, some people who drop by the spot were not responsible enough to pocket their trash.

For many, discipline and initiative is the key to maintain the bay’s cleanliness.

Politicized Rehabilitation

Despite the government’s goal to rehabilitate beach spots, there still disunity among people. While most are happy with the results, some are not pleased with the project. Some politicize the goal and fights over the bragging rights to whom this shall be credited to.
