City Councilor Annabeth Cuizon, the ordinance’s author, said their initial objective was to raise funds to implement projects, such as coral rehabilitation, garbage collection, monitoring of illegal fishing and water pollution. “We came to realize that what we were doing was regulating the use of our natural resources. It’s not all about the money collected after all, it’s about regulating the usage of our marine resources and at the same time preserving our environment,” Cuizon said.
