Share TweetBy Erma EderaNewly-proclaimed mayor-elect Francisco “Isko Moreno” Domagoso vowed to preserve the Arroceros Forest Park and the Manila Zoo, amid alleged threats to sell these city properties. Domagoso said he had no intention to sell the Arroceros Park, dubbed as the last lung of Manila. It can be recalled that incumbent Mayor Joseph Estrada had earlier planned to turn the park into a gymnasium. The present Arroceros Forest Park, situated beside Pasig River in the area of Lawton, is covered with over 1,500 trees and a habitat of 26 resident and migratory bird species.
