Govt to boost protection of marine ecosystem

A JOINT memorandum circular between the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) and two other state agencies is expected to strengthen the establishment of marine protected area networks (MPANs), restore damaged coastal ecosystems, and enrich coral reefs and marine habitats.

This policy mandates collaboration between the DENR, Department of Agriculture (DA) and the Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) in improving the coastal and marine environment through cooperation.
