About 300 personnel from the Philippine Coast Guard and its Auxiliary counterpart in Cavite have joined hands in rehabilitating the Manila Bay through a mangrove planting activity in San Rafael IV, Noveleta.
The planting activity was spearheaded by the Office of the Deputy Coast Guard Staff for Marine Environmental Protection (CG-9) as led by CAPT ROBEN N DE GUZMAN PCG.
3,000 mangrove propagules were planted by the joint team from the PCG headquarters, Coast Guard Station Cavite, 125th Squadron and the 129th Squadron.
This was preceded by a brief lesson conducted by a staff from the City Environment and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) on the proper way of planting propagules.
