Issuance of Cease-and-Desist Order on Flood Control Project

Mayor Anarna ordered a halt to the flood-control project, arguing that the project could harm natural waterways and that alternative ecological approaches would be more appropriate. Context: A flood-control project involving the cementing of waterways in Silang was planned as part of a larger infrastructure initiative in Cavite. Execution: The local government issued a cease-and-desist order against the project and promoted environmental alternatives such as: - tree-planting along waterways - use of bokashi balls for river rehabilitation - ecological flood mitigation initiatives Impact: - Prevented the immediate implementation of the cement-based flood project - Shifted local attention to environmental flood-control methods
