A Paradise Once -- Boracay Today

Tweet

Hello everyone. Good to be back after almost two days out. Yesterday was the first day Boracay Island was closed to the public for the next six months by order of the Philippine President. The reason for closure is to fix the sewage and environment related problems. Boracay is known for the pristine white beaches and paradise to tourist and locals. Today, it looks like an ordinary island that has not been known before. But as you can see in the picture, there are lots of sea weeds on the shoreline. As of writing this, locals of Boracay, admin of resorts and people from the government are having their meeting for the for the implementation of their project of fixing the island's problem.
