Jesse Robredo, inspected the ongoing Pasig-Marikina River Channel Improvement Project. The tour started in Bahay Pangarap up to the Napindan Hydraulics Flood Control structure. It aims to increase the holding capacity of the Pasig River through dredging and dessilting. The government will complete the project within 2-3 years to end the perennial flooding in Metro Manila.
