Sa kaliwa't-kanang pagbaha, paano nga ba tayo makakaahon? Paano nga ba tayo makakatayo?
Maliban sa paguusig sa mga may sala sa flood control scandal, kailangan nating i-empower ang ating mga komunidad para magmapa ng ating mga nawawalang ilog: mga ilog na tinambakan at sumikip hanggang hindi na nito kaya ang pag-agos ng tubig. Kailangan din natin i-mapa ang mga lumulubog na komunidad, lalong-lalo na sa mga munisipyo ng Bulacan 1st district.

Samahan niyo kami sa aming ACLE na mapping sinking cities at hidden waterways, ngayong Martes, Feb. 24, sa UPRI Training Room.
