Igacos waterfall cemented for bulk water system preparations - A controversy arises as a waterfall in the Island Garden City of Samal (Igacos) gets cemented in preparation for the city's bulk water system. The Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) has initiated a project similar to the Tamugan River in Davao, which includes slope protection. The cementing of the river's side aims to prevent deepening and ensure the safety of the area.

Visitors are urged to care for the waterfall and avoid leaving garbage, while concerns are raised about the appropriate intervention to protect the waterfall.
