Host Gretchen Ho took to the micro-blogging site, Twitter wherein she has reacted to the white sand makeover of Manila Bay.
Recently, many were shocked after a wide stretch of powdered white sand covered the baywalk of Manila Bay.
Among those who reacted is Kapamilya host Gretchen Ho who expressed her sentiments about the apparent makeover of Manila Bay.
In one of her tweets which was retrieved by Fashion Pulis, she said: “Fyi. Bumibili kami dati ng synthetic white sand for our beach volleyball tournaments for @bvr_ph, at ang mahal mahal nun ha. Plus delivery pa of the white sand. Millions.”
She even quipped that it is now perfect upon playing volleyball.
Meanwhile, according to DENR Undersecretary Benny Antiporda, the restoration of Manila Bay aims to promote environmental awareness and cleanliness.
In a statement, he stressed that there are three objectives behind the restoration of the natural harbor; “to see is to believe,” “to smell is to believe,” and “to smell is to believe.”
It’s been a week since DENR started putting “white sand” on Manila Bay which are actually dolomite boulders from Cebu that were crushed and brought to Manila.
The goal of DENR is to allow the beachgoers to feel the Boracay essence via a one-hectare walkable area in Manila Bay.
DENR partners with the Department of Public Works and Highway (DPWH) in this project.
Manila Bay’s beachfront will be ready in time for the International Coastal Cleanup Day this coming September 19.
