PRESIDENT Ferdinand Marcos Jr. has ordered the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) to assist and intensify dredging operations in Bulacan and Pampanga.

The order came following the massive flooding that hit the Bulacan and Pampanga areas during the onslaught of Typhoons 'Egay' and 'Falcon' that enhanced the southwest monsoon, or habagat.
