SMC expands river cleanup to Alabang River
The Philippine Star
|October 05, 2025
Conglomerate San Miguel Corp. (SMC) has expanded its river cleanup program to Alabang River in Muntinlupa.
SMC said the initiative includes clearing obstructions and widening narrow sections of the waterway to ease flooding that has long affected nearby communities and critical roads.
More than 26,000 tons of silt and waste from a 450-meter stretch of the river, starting at its mouth in Laguna de Bay and going upstream near Cupang Bridge, have been cleared in the two months since work started.
“Our goal is to provide long-term solutions that would ease flooding for the city’s communities and critical roadways,” SMC chairman and CEO Ramon Ang said.
