The wife of business tycoon Victor Consunji showed in her Instagram post the amount of trash that she and TV host Marc Nelson collected in the waters of Coron, while kayaking.

The morena beauty queen stressed that people should protect the natural beauty of this place.

“I need your attention for this post. While I enjoy exploring Coron there is a huge part of tourism that needs to be addressed.”

“To see how we can help lessen the plastic trash in our waters. We CAN NOT stress this enough. Please, please, PLEASE dispose of your trash correctly. After about an hour of kayaking for Project Bottle Battle, @marcnelson and I picked up all the trash you see in the photos. Isn’t it sad? How can a place so beautiful be riddled with garbage?! As a local and as a tourist we MUST learn to respect what was lent to us.”
