The local government said Friday's job fair was the first of three Mega Job Fairs it will conduct this year. Sandoval and the City Environmental and Natural Resources Office (CENRO) also held a clean-up drive and planted 100 Balitbitan Tree saplings, an evergreen tree found in the Philippines India, Southeast Asia, and New Guinea, near the C4 Road in Barangay Longos in the city early morning on Friday. The tree-planting activity is part of the city government’s environmental programs to reduce carbon emmission and the effects of global warming. The city government said it aims to create more green spaces in Malabon. The CENRO said it will make sure to take care of the planted saplings which were expected to reach full growth within three to five years. “Hindi maikakaila ang epekto ng climate change. Ang aking administrasyon ay nangangako na protektahan ang mga residente at negosyo ng Malabon. It is our moral obligation (The impact of Climate change is undeniable. My administration is committed to protecting the residents and businesses in Malabon. It is our moral obligation” the city mayor said. Present during the Mega Job Fair were City Administrator Alexander Rosete, former City Representative Ricky Sandoval, city councilors and department heads.
