Alejano said prior to the successes of securing the countrys ownership of the
extended continental shelf in the Benham Rise Region and forging a peaceful settlement
of overlapping international boundaries with the Republic of Indonesia, NAMRIA also
provided key technical assistance in the crafting and the passage of Republic Act 9522,
which defines the archipelagic baseline of the Philippines.
The NAMRIA also dutifully assisted coastal cities and municipalities in the
delineation of their municipal waters to allow these local government units to effectively
manage their marine resources, Alejano said.
Likewise, Alejano said, NAMRIA has established the web-based Philippine
Geoportal System to facilitate the production, sharing, integration and analysis of the
geospatial information of stakeholder agencies.
The Magdalo Partylist lawmakers said NAMRIA should be acknowledged for these
accomplishments. The House of Representatives should commend and congratulate the
NAMRIA for these multifarious achievements, which is a testament to its invaluable
service to the country, the solons said. (30) mrs
