MANILA, Philippines — After barely a week since the government’s Manila Bay Rehabilitation project, some students were already caught throwing trash in the newly-cleaned bay.

One netizen took her concern to social media as she personally saw some students throwing cigarette butts and plastic wrappers in Manila Bay.

According to the post which has now been taken down, she went to Manila Bay to see the outcome of the cleanup drive held last January 27.
