A town in Lanao del Norte wants to be known as the 'wild berries capital' of the Philippines.
Find out why from the mayor of Nunungan himself, Marcos Mamay, on #NewDay | LIVE cnn.ph/3aOSF4r
Nunungan mayor on the town aiming to be the 'wild berries capital' of the Philippines: The taste of wild berry tastes the same just like a strawberry. It has more fiber and is best for detox.
Nunungan mayor: We have three lakes, four waterfalls, five caves and we're planning to establish a strawberry farm in the municipality
Nunungan mayor: Development is the language of peace. Nunungan has been deprived of it for 30 long years, so accessibility is our main concern.
Nunungan mayor: We have a realization of ₱1.5B for the development of our national roads. We thank the Duterte administration and the provincial government for this.
