- P18-billion Pasig River Urban Development
The Pasig River in the Philippines was a clear, flowing body of water that served as the center of commerce in Spanish colonial Manila in the 1800s. Stretching 27 kilometers, it connects Laguna Lake to Manila Bay and was the major source of water and livelihood of the many communities along its banks.
The Pasig river's demise was a slow process that began in the 1930s, when fish migration from Laguna Lake decreased, and people stopped bathing and washing activities. By the 1970s, the river stank and
turned black. Water quality dropped.
Despite facing challenges such as urbanization, pollution, and neglect, the river remains a testament to the cultural and historical value it holds for the people of Metro Manila.
In the past, the Pasig River served as a bustling mode of transportation for goods and people. Boats and ferries gracefully navigated its waters, facilitating the movement of goods and commuters between different parts of Metro Manila and its surrounding areas.
Beyond its historical and cultural value, Pasig River plays a critical role in the management of drainage and flood control in Metro Manila. It acts as a natural waterway, channeling rainwater and excess water during typhoons and heavy rainfall.
Proper management and maintenance of the river are essential to prevent flooding in the metropolis, safeguarding the lives and properties of its residents.
Unfortunately, urbanization and industrialization have taken a toll on the water quality of Pasig River over the years. Pollution from untreated sewage, industrial discharges, and solid waste have severely affected the river's ecosystem and aquatic life.
Cleaning and restoring the river have become imperative for environmental and health reasons.
Tackling these challenges is a priority, to ensure a healthier river that benefits both the ecosystem and the communities that rely on it.
As Pasig River continues to face both challenges and potential, efforts are being made to restore its glory and prominence in Metro Manila. Today, efforts are being made to breathe new life into this historical
waterway, to restore its former glory and preserve its cultural significance for generations to come.
The government recently formed the Inter-Agency Council for the Pasig River Urban Development as part of the government's response to the urgent need to rehabilitate and beautify the Pasig River. Executive Order (EO) No. 35, signed by Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin, created the inter-agency council will be responsible for ensuring the full rehabilitation of the riverbanks, along the Pasig River water system and neighboring water systems.
"There is an urgent need to rehabilitate and enhance the quality of life along the banks of the Pasig River, its tributaries, and surrounding communities," it added. The inter-agency council will be chaired by the Secretary of the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development (DHSUD). The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) chairperson will serve as vice-chair.
There are 13 member agencies that include DPWH, DENR, DILG, DOT, DOTr, DOF, DBM, National Historical Commission of the Philippines, National Commission for Culture and the Arts, Philippine Ports
Authority, Philippine Coast Guard, Laguna Lake Development Authority and Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority.
The council is also tasked with developing the Pasig River Urban Development Plan and implementing a "coordinated and integrated rehabilitation" of the Pasig Riverbanks system and nearby water systems.
Dubbed as the "Pasig Bigyan Buhay Muli" (PBBM), the urban development project aims to transform the Pasig River into a center of economic activity, tourism and promote transportation connectivity in Metro Manila and adjacent provinces.
Recreational and wellness amenities, such as public parks and jogging and bike paths, will also be constructed in key areas along the 26-km. stretch of the river, which traverses 11 cities in the metropolis, the DHSUD said.
Some 10,000 informal settler families affected by the project will be relocated into two major housing projects in BASECO and the mouth of the river at Laguna de Bay, under the Pambansang Pabahay Para sa Pilipino Program.
The government envisions Pasig River to play a significant role in economic development activities in the metropolis just like waterways in other major cities in the world, like the Thames River in London, the Chao Phraya in Bangkok and the Seine River in Paris.

Wow!
Mayor isko huwag na kayo tumakbo ,wala daw kayo nagawang C.R. sa mga public places. Mapanghe..!
Ok dapat alisin lahat ng structures sa gilid ng ilog at least 50 meters kahit pang mayaman tanggalin lahat sa future.. then palitan ng mga puno.. ganyan kabigat sa pag gawa ng urban plan ang nanunungkulan sa gov't. Bilang paglilingkod sa Diyos at sa bayan....lagyan din ng mga highrise apartment na pang pamilya ng mahihiraf sa mga s. Code...
wow,i'm amazed for beautification of pasig river malinis na wala ng yung masangsang na amoy ang ganda ng esplanade looks in italy
Gawing mas malapad Ito tulad Ng Mississippi rivers
Isko moreno project thank u po sana po tumakbo ulit kayong mayor
Isko ka Dyan? Manila Zoo lang napaganda nya. Iyang Pasig esplanade na iyan pang national budget iyan. Ibig sabihin sa President project iyan dahil malaking pondo iyan bilyon bilyon at di lang Maynila ang kahabaan ng ilog Pasig ilang cities ang kahabaan ng ilog Pasig. Kaya Anong isko ka Dyan? Sa Maynila lang naging mayor si isko at di sa maraming cities sa metro manila na nadadaanan ng kahabaan ng ilog Pasig. At isa pa di na mayor si isko Mula ng tumakbong President at natalo Kay President BBM. Kaya tigil tigilan nyo na kaka isko nyo pati iyang kaka duterte ng mga DDS. Move on na kayo Marcos Ang Pangulo at Siya nagpa projects ngayon sa maraming projects sa buong Pilipinas.
pinagsasabi mo?
Proyekto ni isko moreno yan bago bumaba sya sa pagkamayor. Dapat sya presidente natin hindi si bbm na trapo
🤞🤞
