In this episode, Carmina and Patch revisit the Pasig River’s consequential role in Manila's development, its former glory and the reasons for its eventual demise. But all is not lost – they talk about past and current revitalization efforts by government, private, and civic organizations that made great strides in resuscitating the river. However, a new threat is imminent that if unchecked, will unwind decades of progress. Listen in as Carmina and Patch discuss ways to ensure Pasig River's continued road to recovery.
