PENRO Agusan Norte leads World Water Day rites
BUTUAN CITY – The Provincial Environment and Natural Office (PENRO) in Agusan del Norte led the celebration of the World Water Day in Butuan City .
Dozens of invitation letters were sent to regional government agencies to join the celebration but only a few of them heed the call to show their commitment of support to the World Water Day rites.
Carrying the message “ Makibahagi at Pagyamanin, Tubig Natin “, the participants went around the city’s commercial district in a simple motorcade joined by the different regional and local government agencies that started at 7 am after holding a mass at the Butuan City Catholic Cathedral Church.
They included the Department of Interior and Local Government ( DILG), Department of Agriculture ( DA), National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) , Department of Health (DOH) , National Irrigation Administration ( NIA), DXBN Radyo Ng Bayan, Philippine Information Agency ( PIA), the Philippine National Police (PNP), Philippine Army, DILG-Bureau of Fire Protection, Commission on Human Rights (CHR), Richmond Palywood Company, the Provincial Government of Agusan del Norte Environment and Natural Resources Office, the Environment Management Bureau (EMB), CENRO Nasipit led by CENRO Jaime Acebu , and the DENR Regional Office.
The DENR distributed information materials as they passed through the major thoroughfares in the city containing important messages of the wise use of water and plant and care of tree seedlings in the watershed areas which are source of water for domestic and irrigation uses.
Residents have stepped out of their respective homes to greet the motorcade although others were seen to shrug off their shoulders in an apparent show of non-involvement in the united campaign of the government on the necessity of water.
The PENRO of Agusan del Norte Rosendo Asunto, speaking in behalf of the DENR Regional Executive Director for Caraga Region Edilberto S Buiser , has thanked all the agencies that participated in the celebration.
He emphasized the messages of the importance of water in which President Gloria Macapagal Arroyo and DENR Secretary Lito Atienza want to be conveyed to the people.
“Water is life “PENRO Asunto said. He urged the people to use the water wisely even as the country enjoys abundant sources of water.
The United Nations General Assembly reported that more than 1 billion people or about 20 percent of the world’s population have no access to safe drinking water.
The report also said that there are at least 4,500 children in the world who die everyday due to the absence of safe and clean water.
PENRO Asunto has urged every resident to be responsible and care for the water resources. He said that as possible, every one must protect all the waterways by refraining from throwing all forms of garbage into the canals, creeks and river system which should be maintained clean always.
