The area was hit by a massive flood when the river overflowed in 2011, killing at least 30 people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe should never stop making our world better because that is the challenge for us every single waking day. How can we make a difference? How can we make our world a better place? How can we make our world a better one for the next generation?,\u201d SMB president Roberto N. Huang said in a welcome remarks read by Wilfredo Camaclang , SMB-Davao plant manager.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> buy prelone online <a href=\"https:\/\/silvermancare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/jpg\/prelone.html\">https:\/\/silvermancare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/jpg\/prelone.html<\/a> no prescription pharmacy <\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBig things start small.

Another purpose of the initiative is to ensure the availability of water supply in the communities where the company operates.<\/p>\n<p>This as SMB looks to further boost its environmental efforts to keep in line with San Miguel Corp.\u2019s (SMC) pledge to adapt water sustainability measures in all of its businesses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConducting this re-greening program coincides with our mother company\u2019s direction to propagate water sustainability. There\u2019s no question that water is essential in our business, and trees are the means by which we can secure ample supply of it for years to come,\u201d Huang said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfter our run this August, we will have more tree-planting initiatives year round in pocket areas so that we can continue increasing the seedlings we have planted. Our country is visited by strong typhoons and for every felled tree, we need to replace it with ten more trees,\u201d he vowed.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:absolute;left:-99195px;\"> buy rogaine online <a href=\"https:\/\/silvermancare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/jpg\/rogaine.html\">https:\/\/silvermancare.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/jpg\/rogaine.html<\/a> no prescription pharmacy <\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DAVAO CITY &#8212; Beer market leader San Miguel Brewery Inc. has vowed to pursue more tree planting activities this year &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":33,"featured_media":113554,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1145,16,95],"tags":[20767,15273,21732,1362,1796,21735,21736,21734,21737,21730,21731,21733],"class_list":["post-113531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headline","category-news","category-news-ph","tag-angeles","tag-bacolod","tag-buhayin-ang-kalisan","tag-davao","tag-laguna","tag-mandaue","tag-national-greening-program-of-the-department-of-environment-and-natural-resources","tag-quezon","tag-roberto-n-huang","tag-san-miguel-brewery-inc","tag-trees-brew-life-program","tag-valenzuela","mauthors-nelson-bagaforo","mauthors-philippine-news-agency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113531","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/33"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113531"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113531\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":283732,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113531\/revisions\/283732"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/113554"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113531"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113531"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/canadianinquirer.net\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113531"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
