“Most of our guests today belong to the indigenous and disabled sector and can not afford to pay exclusive swimming lessons. As a way of giving back to the community, we invited them here in Aqua Planet to teach them that swimming can not only save their lives but also the lives of others,” BBI President Irineo ‘Bong’ Alavaro said.
