MANILA, Philippines — The Pasig River Ferry Service resumed operations on Friday, two days after a high-volume of water hyacinths clogged portions of the Pasig River, causing a temporary suspension of the service.
In an advisory, the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) announced the return of the ferry service’s normal operations from Escolta Station in Binondo, Manila, to Nagpayong Station in Pinagbuhatan, Pasig City.
