    Executive Secretary Ralph Recto stated that Metro Manila is not facing a garbage crisis but rather a problem with improper waste disposal. He emphasized that the recent floods were partly caused by trash-clogged waterways. Recto called for a 'discipline culture' and strict compliance with waste management regulations.
