My dear friends,
On January 24 a very dear friend and colleague Gerry Ortega was shot in the head dead. I was just with him that weekend – and a few minutes before he died what we were discussing over the phone was an anti-mining campaign in Palawan – given that on December two huge mining applications were railroaded – and they were to be near protected sites.
Gerry is dead but we will not let go of his dreams – and mine – and probably yours too.
Palawan has 17 key biodiversity sites – which means it is part of the 70% biodiversity sites which are essential for sustaining life in the planet. It has 2 world heritage sites, 8 protected sites. Yet if you see Palawan on the map you will note that it is a very thin island – which is 82% mountain. It means that if the forest gets denuded and the minerals excavated – the tailings seep directly into the sea affecting the coral reefs. The top soil is thin – and the island eco system is fragile.
Mining is not the way to go for Palawan . I have five eco tourism sites wherein the communities involved can now send their children to school, can dream bigger dreams. Mayor Hagedorn in Puerto Princesa has banned mining and logging – and focused on tourism and agriculture. From 2 flights a week, Puerto Princesa now boasts 10 flights a day. His revenues have gone up from several million to several billion.
Mining as an economic path in a magnificent “Last Frontier” is based on a paradigm of economic growth that is myopic and archaic . In this age of climate change and global warming any economic development that does not recognize and revere the web of life should be thrown in the dustbin.

I’m reposting this letter because Palawan has been close to my heart. I want this paradise on earth be seen and experienced by my future kids and my kids’ kids. If you have been awed by Palawan’s beauty and care about the issue, please sign the petition and share this. Thank you very much!
Log in to www.no2mininginpalawan.com. Make something count today- for nature, for the future, for you and me.
I signed up and reposted it as well James , sana may mangyari talaga
sana di matuloy yung mining….
a friend of mine told me that south palawan, specifically rio tuba is already “sira.” a sad truth
apparently, some politicians are behind this nature-damaging projects, aka “mining”
rio tuba is not sirang sira.. rio tuba is now a first class municipality… meaning, has progressed.. ONLY AN IDIOT AND STUPID PERSON WILL JUDGE SOLELY FROM ONE SIDE WITHOUT TAKING A LOOK AT THE OTHER SIDE.. IF UR NOT A TECHNICAL PERSON, YOU WILL SAY NO TO MINING, PRIMA FACIE.. BUT, HEY, U HAV A PEA BRAIN (AT LEAST A PEA) TO USE AND THINK..
to responsible_mining… isa ka bang technical personel ng rio tuba?or naranasan mo na rin bang maging isa sa mga taong sumusulong para ipaglaban ang paninira xa KALIKASAN??? mr. I_know_it_all??naranasan mu nang masging isa xa aling mang side na yan?,, how do you evrything then?or did u even try to look at the other side of the river where in there is the miners,the other, the petitioners???did it even occur to you that your one of those stupid and pea brain person who judge solely without taking a look at the other side??.well its just a thought!!!!!waiting for a reply…..pls.. enlighten us.pls.. correct me if im wrong about it.
to all who are supporting no to mining:
stand up for what you believe is right. DO NOT patronize the products of the mining industry.
DO NOT wear clothes or anything that used needles to sew / make it. Go naked or wear leaves and vines.
DO NOT use electricity or anything that run with the aid of electricity. Wires are mostly made of copper which are mined and produced here in the Philippines too. Electronic devices are obviously a big part of the mining industry. (wag na wag na kayo manood ng TV at kahit na kandila gamitin ninyo tuwing gabi hindi pa rin pwede kasi ang mga ginamit upang gawin ang isang kandila ay nangangailangan ng ibang gamit na yari sa mga produkto ng mina.)
Everything you have in you and around you are because of the mining industry.
I am aware of the effects of mining that is why people like us are practicing and advocating responsible mining for sustainable development.
We (the technical persons) will stand on what we believe is right.
DO YOUR PART. Stand up to what you believe. DO NOT PATRONIZE ANY (any, any, any) PRODUCTS OF THE MINING INDUSTRY. (tingnan natin kung kaya ninyo)
as if naman kasi hindi kayo nakikinabang.
actually empleyado kmi ng minhan d2… eh kaw nkpunta k n b d2 s rio tuba? bkit kya di mo etry pumunta d2 at ng mkita mo kong anong ngagawa ng mining d2 s buhay nmin! slita k ng slita dyan!
Did Rio Tuba hurt you? Gaano mo kamahal ang kalikasan? unahin mo itong mga walang habas magtapon ng basura sa Metro manila ito ang numero unong sumisira sa kaliaksan hindi ang rio tuba dahil ang rio tuba 30 years in operation ni kuko ng mamamayan hindi nito sinasaling…
NO TO MINING KA?? BAT KA GUMAGAMIT NG COMPUTER?? ARE YOU WILLING TO GO BACK TO STONE AGE?? CGE IKAW LANG!!
@metellurgist-kung yan lang din naman ang laban edi sige, hamunan tau. Wag kang kakain ng rice ha. or ng kahit anung tinanim. damay na dun ung mga pork, chicken and beef. bakit? ksi ung mga feeds na kinakain ng mga baboy at manok para tumaba at lumaki sila ay tinanim at inani ng mga taong nasisira ang buhay ng dahil sa mga minahan na yan. at ung mga damong kinakain ng mga baka ay tumutubo sa mga healthy soils na nawawala/nauubos na dahil sa mga minahan. We are now importing rice from Thailand and other countries because we no longer could produce enough rice to feed the Filipino citizens, want to know why? because the once productive rice plantations and healthy soils are now harmful. Those soils are now full of laterite. Rice crops and other plants doesn’t grow on laterite soils. Now, if you could survive without any food then fine, support mining here in the Philippines. And I’d like to point out that Ms. Gina Lopez is not against ALL MINING. She is just against mining HERE in the Philippines. Philippines is not made for mining. Go mine elsewhere, not here in the Philippines.
sana ang nag go go sa mining eh..mauna sanang matabunan pag nag landslide!tingnan natin kung makapagsabi pa cya ng go to mining na yan!!! saka wlang konsencya ang taong wlang pakialam kung marami man ang mamamatay!!!tulad ng nangyari sa cagayan!!!magicing nman kau!!!
kaya nga may tinatawag na responsible mining di ba?
whatever, gumagamit ka ng computer ei, mai pasay say no to mining ka pang nalalaman…
sana yung friend mo ay taga rio tuba bago ka mag broadcast.. dahil 30 years na ako sa rio tuba, patuloy ang pagunlad dito, hindi lang mining kundi fishing and farming… mining made rio tuba a leading progressive barangay of bataraza… sana makapasyal ka sa rio tuba para makita mo… ok?
HINDI AKO AGAINST SA MINING BASTA WAG LANG SA PALAWAN!
I’m not against mining but NOT IN PALAWAN. You are so stupid if you want to live like those in the stone age. Palawan has greater potential in eco-tourism due to its magnificent beauty. Though it has a lot of minerals but it’s unjust to dig out those minerals and disregard the rich natural resources and ecosystem of our province. MINING is NOT SUSTAINABLE, it is only temporary may be just for a couple of decades. At pagwala na ang mining sigurado ka ba na masagana pa rin ang buhay mo? Baka ni puno ng saging hindi na tumubo sa lupain mo.
You are too selfish kung yes to mining ka in Palawan at malamang dayuhan ka lang sa probinsya namin. You want to exacavate the Philippine’s Last Frontier? Oh come on you are really selfish! Masagana ka ngaun pero pag wala na ang mining at wala na rin ang natural resources ng palawan masagana ka pa rin kaya? Mag-isip ka nga!
Ang mga bakal hindi makakain kung wala ng tanim na tutubo sa lupain ng Palawan siguro alam mo naman yun.
Rio tuba? Maunlad? Saan? Bakit kanila ba ang minahan? E kung tag-inig halos malusaw na ang balat mo sa sikat ng araw. Wala ng top soil ang Rio Tuba nandun na sa Japan itinambak na sa isla nila. Yun ba ang ba ang maganda at masagana? Pag wala na ang mining sa Rio tuba akala nyo sa kangkongan kayo dadamputin? HINDI! Alikabok ang lalamunin nyo. Kasi ni KANGKONG hindi na tutubo sa lupain nyo kasi wala ng top soil. Ayon yan sa pinag aralan natin sa science nung elementary.
Kapag wala na ang forest, tourism and natural resources natin sa Palawan at panay bato at lupang binungkal ng minahan ano na mangyayari sa next generation? May bakal nga na pang patayo ng building wala namang pagkain! Tama ba yun! Buti kung kagaya ng Hong Kong at Macau ang gobyerno natin kahit walang natural resources kayang paunlarin ang bansa nila.
Nakakalungkot isipin na bubungkalin ng lang ng bubungkalin na lang ang Palawan hindi na makapag isip ng ibang paraan ang gobyerno natin para maging sustainable ang kabuhayan ng mga Palaweno yung hindi lang pang 30, 40, or 50 years. Palibhasa’y sarili lang nila iniisip nila ang makabawi sa ginastos sa eleksyon at ang magpayaman at ang magpayaman… Kawawa ang Palawan sa mga sakim na yan!
Kung susuportahan lang ng gobyerno ang mga magsasaka at tulungan sa marketing ng mga produkto at di mabarat ng mga middle men hindi na natin kailangan ng minahan. Mga sakim talaga! Sakim! Sakim!
Inuulit ko hindi ako kontra mining basta wag lang sa Palawan! Sayang ang eco-tourism at ganda ng Palawan kung mapupunta lang sa wala.
try to live in rio tuba kahit 1 month lang .. try mo lang kuya.. feel how rio tuba mining comforts you…

yes to mining??????
olol ka pala ehhhh
inisip muh pa sarili muh kesa Sandali lang, unang-una sinusuportahan ko ang campaign to stop mining in Palawan. Personally, sinusuportahan ko ang pagpapatigil at pagpapalayas ng lahat ng foreign mining companies dito sa Pilipinas at pagsuspindi sa lahat ng foreign mining applications. What is happening in Palawan and all over the Philippines (lalo na sa Benguet na minimina na since 1908) is that a huge area ay ina-aaplyan ng mining applications from large foreign companies. Now sino ba ang pinapatamaan pag sinabing foreign mining companies?
Ang Pilipinas ay may 7.5 billion metric tons ng metallic mineral reserves 5.1 billion metric tons ng non-metallic mineral reserves. Ang halaga lang naman Nito ay $840 hanggang $1 trillion! MAS MALAKI PA SA BUDGET NG PILIPINAS SA ISANG TAON! Isipin nyo na lang kung sakong bigas na yun, or ilang schools na pag-aaralan ng mga bata, o ilang ospital ang pwedeng ipatayo ang gamit nun. Kung mga Pilipino lang ang makikinabang dun, malaki na ang iaambag nun para yumaman ang Pilipinas at the same time ay hindi binibitawan ng agriculture.
Sa matagal na panahon, ang mining policy ng governments ay i-open for control ang mining industry sa mga foreign companies. Basically dependent sa paghuhukay ng ores, pag-eexport nito, habang nagdedepend sa foreign capital, kasanayan at technology.
Syempre ito yung mga companies galing ibang bansa na gusto mag-”invest” sa Pilipinas. Ilan sa kanila ay pumapasok sa isang deal with Filipino businessmen like Manny Pangilinan, pero karamihan sa mga Board of Trustees nito ay foreign owned/foreign funded/foreign controlled.
Eh saan nga ba kasi napupunta yung minimina nila?
Malamang hindi bumabalik sa Pilipinas. Nilalabas nila sa Pilipinas ng sala na yung mineral, pagbalik dito cellphone na, TV, in short finished product na bibilhin. Eh mura lang naman binebenta ang minerals sa labas ng bansa kasi “raw” pa nga ito, at wala namang industriya dito sa Pilipinas na nag-proprocess nito. Tayo naman, bili ng bili kasi WALANG GUMAGAWA NITO SA ATIN.
Kung tutuusin, bilyon-bilyon ang mga kinikita ng mga foreign mining companies na yan. Kaya yung mga school na pinagyayabang nila, yung mga infrastucture projects na sinasabi nila hindi yan utang na loob ng mga mamamayan. Kulang pa yan bilang kapalit dun sa paninira ng kalikasan na ginawa nila.
Ay, meron pa palang kumikita! Yung gobyerno (sa pamamagitan ng lagay) at yung mga soldiers (sa pamamagitan ng pag-protekta sa mining projects)
Ang kasinungalingan ng “There is Life in Mining”
Do you know that one a mining application is granted, the company will mine the land for 25 years, at RENEWABLE pa ito for another 50 years! Imagine! 75 years of mining! Ano na lang ang matitira sa lupa? At remember, LAHAT NG KUMPANYA NG MINA GUGUSTUHING KUMITA NG PINAKAMALAKING PROFIT! Kaya lahat ng bagay na pwedeng ibenta dun kukunin nila. Imagine 75 years of mining?
And pag may application na ang isang lugar, pwedeng gamitin at i-exploit ng mining companies ang LAHAT ng bagay dun sa area na may application. Ibig sabihin if may sapa jan, or river, free to use yan ng company. For 75 years.
Kunwari darating ang kumpanya sa isang lugar, lahat ng ipapatayo nilang bagay ay para makapag-operate sila. Kalsada- para madaanan ng sasakyan. tulay. Planta ng kuryente or dam- para supplyan ng kuryente ang mga makinang nag-huhukay at hindi para bigyan ng kuryente yung community.
Itatap din nila yung primary water source ng community, halimbawa if may ilog, para gawing salaan ng ores. San na sila kukuha ng tubig? There was once an old man from the community who brought a water sample galing sa Abra river, isang river na affected ng Lepanto Mines sa Benguet (Yes, kase connected ang river systems dito). Sabi niya “Tingnan nyo ito, ang itim itim! Sila kaya (taga-Lepanto) ang painumin ko nito”. A group of scientists tested the water and they found high levels of cyanide, and other toxic chemicals sa tubig. Now are they saying sa media? That these foreign companies are responsible miners?
Totoo yang pagtatanim ng puno thing na yan. I went to Itogon, Benguet and I saw the area of “dwarf trees”. Ito yung trees na tinanim ng Benguet Corporation (company na nagmimina sa Itogon for halos 100 years na din, one of first places to be mined by the Americans) 10 yrs ago, at hanggang ngayon ay maliit pa rin sya! Di na lumaki, haha! Asan na yung sinasabi na nirerehabilitate ng companies yung mga area na minina na nila? All’s left was burak, lason, buhangin and tunnels.
Last Pepeng and Ondoy, dito Cordillera yung pinakamaraming mga aksidente ay nangyari sa mga mining areas. Madaling gumuho ang mga bahay kasi butas na yung ilalim. Even the schools ay lumubog na! Sa Mankayan Benguet nga ilang school buildings na yung di ginagamit kasi lumulubog sila.
Me Trabahong di Marangal sa Mining
Yeah, ang promise ng trabaho ay isa sa mga “nakakaakit” na promise ng company. Ilang daan ba naman kasi yun?
Reality check: Magkano ba ang sinasahod ng rank and file na miner? 250/day? 300/day? Wala pa nga sa minimum wage rate. Makakabuhay ka ba ng pamilya jan? Nag-eemploy pa sila ng contractual, so every 6 months pwede na sila mag-fire. At dahil contractual ka, wala kang Philhealth/SSS.
Working conditions: Akala nyo ba ang mga boots, flashlights at helmet ng mga minero ay sagot ng company? Haha Syempre hindi! Eh di dagdag gastos na naman yan. Tapos, ngayon kahit 2 months ka pa lang, pinapagawa na sa iyo yung mga mabibigat na trabaho like pagpasok sa mga pinakamalalalim na tunnels etc. Pag namatay ka, ang sasabihin ng kumpanya ay “over-confidence or lapse of judgement”. Kaya kasalanan mo pa kung bakit ka namatay.
REHABILITATION: Hello, mahal kaya mag-rehabilitate? Imagine after 75 years mong miminahin isasalba mo ulet? Malamang hindi yan gagawin ng companies kasi nga PROFIT ang habol nila at gusto nilang mabawasan ang gagastusin nila as much as possible.
Naiinis lang ako sa argument na wag na kayong magdamit, kung ayaw nyo sa mining. Wag na kayong manuod ng TV, gumamit ng cellphone etc. kasi sa mining naman nanggaling yan.
Unang-una: ang tanga lang nito. Sige nga, may cellphone ka nga, lumubog naman bahay niyo, namatay sa minahan asawa mo, nalason sa tubig ng ilog ang anak mo. Walang nagbebenefit sa mining kundi yung mga may-ari at mga employees nila na naka-upo sa opisinang de-aircon. Kung titimbangin mo talaga, napakamapanira nitong foreign mining companies na ito. Yung Small scale mining naman ay kelangan i-regulate.
Pangalawa: Ang mineral ay galing sa kalikasan, na dapat nga naman pangalagaan. Yung yaman ay galing sa Pilipinas, lupa ng Pinoy. Bakit hindi yung nakararami yung makinabang?
Third: Ang mga policies at batas mismo sa Pilipinas ay pinapatibay ang paninira ng mga foreign companies na ito. Mining Act of 1995, even the DENR ay ganito ang sinasabi. “Lahat ng gusto ng mining companies, gawin natin. I-push natin ito sa congress, gawin nating part ng process sa DENR” lalalala
Sinasaluduhan ko ang mamamayan ng Palawan, pati na ang lahat ng mamamayan mula Luzon hanggang Mindanao nagiging mapagbantay sa kanilang lupa, at kabuhayan. Mabuhay po kayo!
*PS isa akong biology student na nagfre-frequent sa mga mining areas, nakiki-integrate sa mga minero and their families. Ngayon, part ako ng isang anti-mining alliance para pigilan ang pagmimina ng magnetite sa La Union na iikot ng Ilocos hanggang Cagayan.
isipin muh kaya kung ikaw lng matabunan ng land slide

kakahiya namn sa nagresearch, sa tingin mo bakit kaya nabasa ko yang mga pinagsasabi mo, ei pinost mo sa COMPUTER ei,, BAKIT KAYA MAI COMPUTER NO,,,,?????
Naging siyensya ang engineering hindi lamang para mapabuti ang buhay ng mga tao. Naging syensiya ito upang ipagtanggol lahat ng may buhay sa mundo. Kung bilan soon to be mining engineering ka, dapat ngayon palang alam mo na na walang magandang dulot ang ang mining sa kalikasan. Buti ba sana kung pangkaraniwang pagmimina lang ang pinag-uusapan dito, kaso hinde. Isang malakihang pagmimina na pwedeng sumira sa buong palawan. Aanhin mo ang mga paaralan at iba pang community projects na bigay ng mga mining corps kung tanging ang henerasyon muh lang ang makikinabang? Hindi ba mas maganda na sa huli, lahat ang makikinabang? Totoo na umaasa tayo sa pagmimina para sa teknolohiya, pero hindi lamang sa teknolohiya umaasa ang tao. nabuhay ang tao ng mahigit 2million na umaasa lamang sa kalikasan, at kahit gaano man ang i unlad ng teknolohiya, hinding hindi nito maibabalik ang nasirang kalikasan dahil sa pag mimina.
Hiwag mo isumbat ang magandang bunga ng teknolohiya para maging tama ang pagyurak sa kalikasan. Naging madali lang ang buhay para sa tao pero hindi para sa kalikasan na pinagkukuhanan natin ng buhay. Buhay na unti-unting sinisira ng Mining.
Kung talagang soon to be mining engineer ka, pwes ikaw dapat ang higit na nakakaalam na hindi mabuti ang mining sa kahit anong bansa. Huwag hintayin dumating ang panahon na tuluyang mawala at masira ang kalikasan, dahil baka wala kang magawa kundi ngatain yang kompyuter mo sa gutom.
@lolek 21… HYPOCRITE….. UNANG UNA SA LAHAT, PANU KA NAKA COMENT SA POST NA TO, DI BA DAHIL SA COMPUTER NA PRODUKTO NG MINING, KUNG AYAW MONG TANGGAPIN ANG KATOTOHANAN NG BUHAY NA IKAW AY NABUBUHAY NG DAHIL SA MGA TEKNOLOHIYANG PRODUKTO NG PAGMIMINA, MABUTI PANG BUMALIK KA SA PANAHONG WALA KANG MAKIKITANG KAHIT ANONG BAGAY NA MAY KINALAAMN SA PAGMIMINA… OF COURSE, I’M AWARE OF THE BAD EFFECTS OF MINING. KAYA NGA MAY TINATAWAG NA BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN MINING ENGINEERING PARA IMINIMIZE ANG MGA EFFECTS NITO, DI BA?… AT SA TINGIN MO BA SA PAGMIMINA LANG NASISIRA ANG KALIKASAN, WELL, TINGIN KA ULIT, SA DAMI NG ACTIVITIES NG TAO NA HINDI NAMAN PRODUKTIBO, EI DI BA NASISIRA DIN NITO ANG KALIKASAN…. AND HEY, I’M NOT STUPID TO EAT THE COMPUTER… BE OPEN MINDED,, DAHIL LAHAT NG NASA PALIGID MO,NAG EEXIST NG DAHIL SA MINING..
ANG MAGANDANG BUNGA NG TEKNOLOHIYA ay KATOTOHANAN LANG… NASISIRA MAN ANG KALIKASAN, DI BAT NAKIKINABANG KA RIN NAMAN??????????????????????
AM I RIGHT??????????????
AND HEY, who’s stupid enough to eat a computer??????
Maraming susunod sayo?? I would like to remind na kahit ang iyong mga damit eh product ng mining???Do you want to know y??? no need…haha search by your ownself…sege nga sa mga nagsasabing they can live without house,computers, mga paglutuan ng pagkain, and everything na product ng mining,,,you can start,,,as of now,,,go!!!!!!AKO LANG NAMAN,,, I AM PROMOTING RESPONSIBLE MINING..KASI ITS VERY VERY HYPOCRACY NA YOUR SO AGAINTS MINING WITHOUT ANALYZING THE SITUATION…TINGNAN NEO PALIGID NEO KASI!!!! SA TINGIN NEO BA MAPIPIGIL PA ANG MINING KUNG HALOS LAHAT NAMAN NG TAO EH GUSTONG MAGKAROON NG EVERYTHING????? KAYA…MAG-ISIP ISIP KAYO!!! JUST PROMOTE RESPONSIBLE MINING!!!!KATANGAHAN NAMAN KASI EH,,,,,
Imagine world without Mining?
Halos lahat ng gamit dito sa mundo ay product ng MINING. Sasakyan, Computer, Damit at iba pa. Maghubad nalang kayo kung mga ANTI – MINING kayo. HIndi kasi ninyo alam kung ano ang kahalagahan ng MINING sa buhay natin.
hellow pwede nan tyong mabuhay ng alang computer alang sasakyan alang celphone kaso kc mga iba jan pinapairal nila “KATAMARAN”
plastik! e bakit ka nagiinternet pala. dapat mamundok ka at isulong mo ang anti-mining campaign!
helo!!gusto mo rin bang mabuhay ng walang damit, bahay ..at lahat ng bagay na produkto ng mining..
Imagine a world without food. Lahat ng kinakain natin ay product ng HEALTHY SOIL. Fried chicken (oil from coconut tree, and healthy chicken from the feeds they eat), Rice, Adobo, EVERYTHING!
We are not against mining. We are against mining HERE in PALAWAN and in the PHILIPPINES. Do your mining elsewhere like in Chile or in Australia but NOT here. Philippines is an agricultural country not an industrial country.
WEEEEEEE, SAN MO IFA-FRY YONG CHICKEN???????????????SAAN??? KAYA DI UMUUNLAD ANG PILIPINAS DAHIL MAY GANYANG PAGUUTAK??????
AANHIN PA ANG MININING KUNG MASISIRA NAMAN ANG KALIKASAN
THINK AGAIN???

Be open minded you say? Sige, eh wala pa nga sa 30% ang nakokolektang revenues ng pamahalaan sa mining firms.

Sana di tayo nanininiwala sa mga sabi – sabi. I heard Ms. Gina Lopez’s statement in ABC News just this afternoon. She said that Bataraza is the poorest municipality in the province. Do you have any evidence for that? When you think so, maybe that’s because of those people who are abusing their powers (kahit san naman merong currupt). Wag tayong 1 sided. The reality is that, you can’t give source of living to those who are depending in the companies. LET’S SAY NO TO ILLEGAL MINING… but not all the minings here in Southern part of Palawan are illegal. If we are violating the rule of law, then why did the RP president had visited our Barangay? And why are we living peacefully and harmoniously as a local resident of this place? In the end, I could say that is easier to point your fingers to someone than looking at the real victim/s.
thanks jirah… i believe as you do that not all mining companies are illegal but being a “legal” mining company doesn’t assure anyone that nature are not being affected, worst destroyed.
im quoting my good friend who goes to palawan monthy
“the south is just quiet but behind are tribes, native land & rich water resources that are being destroyed. they have been fighting for this and even got threats…signing this is one way we can fight the biggies….fyi rio tuba is destroyed… 🙁 “
you should come here in Rio Tuba, then prove it to yourself,,,
we’re not destroyed,,, in fact we’re developed. I’ve gone to mining site since I was a kid,,, the companies here shows their interest allowing Rio Tuba citizen to know what was happening on their environment,, and they also allowed us to ask questions.. maybe they will allow you too… before we’re like you.. AYAW DIN NMN S MINING DATI… but then we’re still here… cause we’ve seen in our own eyes how responsible mining Rio Tuba has,,, if you ask how? then you should come here to have enough knowledge about it… people doesn’t only come here because of work, because of money, because of wealth, but because they want to survive… how can another generation survive if our generation today doesn’t even try to survive?… I’ve gone also to those tribes that you’ve been talking.,, hey guest what.. the companies protected them and even provided their needs, and they knew that mining isn’t bad at all.. that mining is much more safer than burning mountains to have their “kaingins”..
your friend goes here monthly.. why don’t ask us who lives in here? And guest what not only citizens of Rio Tuba benefited the minings here, but even our province, and even our country…
And even anti- minings before benefited it also…what a shame…
our parents works at mining since our birth, thats how we survive, mining assures them better future for us. and it all came true… I’ve been to a good college, and some of my batch mates are now have a good professions and it is because of mining… and i believe that our next generations will have to…
“Nagkataon kasing lugar namin ay para sa pagmimina at hindi tourist attraction, at iyon ang ikinabubuhay nmin. sana naman ma-isip din ninyo kung ilang libong pamilya ang mawawalan ng ikabubuhay”..
yes i will jayden… but not in the rio tuba community, i will go to the forests…
you should watched this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wJLi27NK-U (see 4:38) 🙂
so then what is more important for you , the environment or the community?
And one more thing, “hindi lahat ng bundok dito sa Rio Tuba ay minimina” and that video you’ve recommended is edited…
To see is to believe right? but it is different pag napanood mu lang sa you tube…
yeah go to the forest and never go down the town.. kung dun ka nababagay..
We are with you in your advocacy.
sinong tinakot mo, pumunta ka sa gubat na sinira nyo
pare-pareho kau mga mukang pera….
I am a resident of Palawan but working here in Manila. It really breaks my heart and i felt sad sa nakita ko when i had a vacation sa Palawan last December lang ang bilis sinira ng pagmimina yung bundok na hitik sa puno.. one year ago lang ay na scrape ang gilid nya.Nakakalungkot pagmasdan yung bundok na kung makakapagsasalita lang sya siguro parang taong iiyak yun at magmamakakawa para siyang binalatan at hiniwa ng walang kalaban laban. Mining itself is not bad, its the attitude and motives of the people. Minerals are also created by God to be extracted and to be of use pero not to the extent of destroying the things that He also created. Its hard to weigh things kung sino ang tama at sino ang mali. Taga-palawan ka man o turista everyone has its own opinion. Siguro what we need is regulation ng mining sa Palawan not a total ban. We should always remember na lahat ng kulang ay masama at lahat ng sobra ay masama pa din. Sa mga nakatira sa mga lugar sa Palawan na ang pangunahing pinagkukunan ng kabuhayan ay ang pagmimina siguro nga sa ngayun meron kayong nakukuha at diyan kayo nabubuhay pero ni minsan ba di ninyo naisip na papaano na kung maubos na ang lahat ng minerals sa lugar nyo?? sana lang you should be responsible with your acts also. Matuto din kayong kilatisin at tingnan ang epekto nito sa pangkalahatan hindi lang dahil yun na lang ang ikinabubuhay nyo.. maraming paraan para mabuhay di lang sa pagmimina. Minsan yung programs for social responsibility ng isang mining company ay di sapat para ireplenish ang nawala.
Reflect on it… saan ba tlga nag ugat ang lahat ng destructions. Its from us tayo mismo na taga Palawan. We blame it to the government officials to our leaders who allowed mining sa Palawan pero di ba natin naisip sino ba ang naglagay sa pwesto sa mga Government Officials na yun di ba tayo rin. We cant point fingers to anyone kasi sa bawat pagturo natin isa ang nakaturo sa iba pero apat na daliri natin nakaturo sa sarili natin.
Lets All advocate for a Responsible Mining in Palawan. We dont have to fully stop the operations right away but to regulate it and be responsible.
kung walang mining, di ka cguro nakapunta ng manila, NILAKAD MO…
HIndi pa sa ngayon ang pinsalang dulot ng pagmimina. Wag kayong makasarili. Isipin nyo rin ang mga susunod na henerasyon.
sira kaung taga rio tuba!!! sobrang saya nyu n my mining kau jn s lugar nyu. uu nkktulong s pamumuhay nyu yan,,pru d nyu naiicip n malapit nang lumubog lugar nyu..sana malubog n kau dyan para nman matauhan ung ibng tao n pumapayag n mgkaroon ng mining dtu s palawan….silaw s pera!!! mga silaw kau sa pera!!!
BAKIT INISIP KA BA NG MGA KANUNUNUNUHAN MO NG MAGSIMULA SILANG MAGMINA SA MUNDO.
i am a resident of rio tuba, YOU ARE NOT.. and as far as the LEGAL AND RESPONSIBLE MINING here is concerned, I AM FOR IT… MGA DAYUHAN LANG ANG MGA NGMAMAGALING AT NAGSASABING GANITO GANYAN… please, stop PRESS SENSATIONALISM.. the then president arroyo herself inaugurated the companies here in rio tuba… and let’s say for instance u may be right that the operation here is damaging (let me just exaggerate), then go stop the operation and feed the thousand families who are supported by these destructive companies, build roads, build hospitals, build schools, build housing units, build water system, and the list can go on.. if you were to weigh the very minute effects of responsible mining (which are addressed rigorously by the companies) and the “benefits” of stopping their operation, which path will you choose? put yourself in the shoes of the people here, not in the shoes of foreigners and visitors who keep on mimicking and whining without thinking before opening their mouths…

Taga Palawan din ako. In my opinion, there is no such thing as responsible mining. Sa papel lang yun. Wala naman talagang laging pumupuntang talaga DENR para e check kung talagang responsible mining ginagawa nila. Kung meron man violation asus gasino lang yan na tapalan ng pera sa mukha.
Call me Palawan Boy or Palaboy for short.
Pag umulan at bumaba ang lupa galing sa minahan na ilang kilometro ang layo sa mga palayan at natakpan ang dating matabang lupa at ang resulta nasirang palayan.
Sakop ba yun ng responsible mining? Ang alam ko kasi reforestation lang ang gagawin nila. Ang palitan ng puno ng kakawate ang mga Ipil at kamagong.
Kung iisipin natin maraming masamang epekto ang minahan hindi kayang tumbasan ng panandaliang kasagahan.
Magising ka Palaweno.
to all who are supporting no to mining:
stand up for what you believe is right. DO NOT patronize the products of the mining industry.
DO NOT wear clothes or anything that used needles to sew / make it. Go naked or wear leaves and vines.
DO NOT use electricity or anything that run with the aid of electricity. Wires are mostly made of copper which are mined and produced here in the Philippines too. Electronic devices are obviously a big part of the mining industry. (wag na wag na kayo manood ng TV at kahit na kandila gamitin ninyo tuwing gabi hindi pa rin pwede kasi ang mga ginamit upang gawin ang isang kandila ay nangangailangan ng ibang gamit na yari sa mga produkto ng mina.)
Everything you have in you and around you are because of the mining industry.
I am aware of the effects of mining that is why people like us are practicing and advocating responsible mining for sustainable development.
We (the technical persons) will stand on what we believe is right.
DO YOUR PART. Stand up to what you believe. DO NOT PATRONIZE ANY (any, any, any) PRODUCTS OF THE MINING INDUSTRY. (tingnan natin kung kaya ninyo)
as if naman kasi hindi kayo nakikinabang.
darating na ang panahon na pati hangin ay bibilhin natin sanhi sa pagkakacra ng kalikasan , buti lang sana kau lang ang maaapektohan sa lupit na kaparusahan nang kalikasan , ang problema madadamay ang walang kinalaman , pinupotol ang 20 ka puno at pinapalitan ng 100 , buti sana kung madali tumubo ang puno pero hindi , it takes years until they reached full maturity , sinasabi nyo na nakakatulong sa inyo ito mining2x na ito , sa ngayon lang yan , WALANG PERMANENTE SA MUNDONG ITO , hindi dahil nakakatulong cla sa inyo ngayong makaktulong cla sa inyong apo sa kuko , pag na ubos ang yaman nang palawan ay iiwan nalang kayo , parang isang babae na na pag katapus iiwanan nang nakatiwangwang sa gilid kac nanakaw na nila ang puri , kapag darating na ang panahon na bibilhin na ang hangin dagdag gastusin nanaman , icc sa gobyerno , bakit makakahinga ba kayo kapag carbon dioxide ang hinihinga ninyo ,i dont think so , ok naman talaga ang mining huwag naman sa point na cnicra na natin ang ating kalikasan
@metallugist:
bakit , kung titira kami sa kweba maibabalik mo ba ang na sira nang kalikasan , subukan mo ngang huminga ng cabon dioxide kung kaya mo! , ang lakas nang loob mong sabihin na huwag gumamit nang produkto galing sa mining pero hindi mo iniisip na ang mga materials ay galing sa kalikasan , kung sinasabi mo na ”stand up for what you believe is right” cge huwag kayong kumuha nang anumang gamit na galing sa kalikasan at hindi rin aq at manghihikayat pa aq na huwag gumamit nang gamit galing sa mining , cgurado aq na mas mayaman kami , hindi ba kayo naaawa sa kalikasan? , bakit hindi ba ninyo!!!!! , mo!!!!! , naranasan nyo , mo!!!!! ang TOOTHACHE , maihahalintulad natin ito sa mining , ang cavities ang mga miners at ang ngipin ay ang bundok na sinisira nang walang mga puso na cavity na yan(miners) ang ngipin(bundok) , ang sakit diba? kung hindi ka mag toothbrush o tutulong mabubulok ang ngipin mo!!!!! o masisira ang palawan , kayo ang may PEA BRAIN (AT LEAST A PEA)TO USE AND THINK..
DO YOUR PART. Stand up to what you believe. DO NOT PATRONIZE ANY (any, any, any) PRODUCTS CAME FROM NATURE ..NGIPIN NYO ANG I MINING NYO HUWAG ANG KALIKASAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(tingnan natin kung kaya ninyo)
AS IFFFFFF naman kasi hindi kayo nakikinabang.
Well, you are entitled to your own opinion.
Mining can be done in other places but not here in Palawan. May mga lugar naman na walang mga nakatirang tao, walang ecosystem, walang forest pero mayama sa minerals kaya ng isang lugar sa Canada. Sa mga ganung klaseng lugar sana sila mag mina.
Wag naman nilang minahin ang LAST FRONTIER. Sayang lang Palawan. Nakakalungkot.
bkit? rcdente k b ng rio tuba palawan? ako mtagal n d2 since birth! bkit ala nmn kming nki2ta worst distroyed n cnsbi mo? putak kc kau ng puatk pumunta kc muna d2, pusthn tau nd k p nkkpunta d2 s min?
yes, I agree with you journeyingjames because I have stayed in the southern part of Palawan for almost a year and I had witness that the mountain was frequently visited by illegal loggers and researchers (studying the possibility of mining the place)… the natives were being fooled by those greedy people…
balol kah…,ung mga nitibo d2 civilized n. kxe mas gusto nila ng mas maunlad n community.
ndi iligal ung mining d2? see! dat s the prolem tlga eh! u never been here in plawan pero kong mkpgputak kau! bkit! nkpunta k n b d2? taga rio tuba bataraza kmi! bkit wla nmn kmin nki2ta n pgkcra? we leave here atleast 24 yrs of our life! so bkit kaw nkkpgslita k ng gnyan kc npnoond mo lng s tv?
Pag wala na kaya ang minahan sa inyo maka survive pa kaya ang Rio Tuba? Tsk tsk hindi kayo nag iisip.
In my opinion, LEGAL and ILLEGAL MINING pareho lang yun kasi ang kaibahan lang ng dalawan is ung sa legal mining meron reforestation. Ung pagtatanim muli ng mga punong kahoy. Pero sa kaalaman ng lahat kalukuhan yun kasi hindi na tutubo or lalaki ung mga kahoy dahil wala na ang TOP SOIL or matabang lupa na naipon pa ng ilang libong taon mula sa mga nabulok na dahon ng mga halaman mula pa noong pahanon ng dinasour.
Sa totoo lang ilang tao lang ang nakikinabang sa mining at hindi lahat taga Rio Tuba. Baka less than 50% lang ng employees dyan ang taga Rio Tuba or Palawan.
i hope that mining will be stop as soon as possible..there is no good to it. the next generation will suffer tremendously for sure,even us at present.
this is a claim from people who don’t know a thing about mining and its effects to the society and the environment. True, mining may cause damages and hazards to the surrounding but EVERY industry has this potential effects. That is why, the engineers of this country are trying every possible to way to maintain and follow what the government’s laws about environment preservation. If you say that mining should stop as soon as possible, better practice yourself and teach your “next generation” how to live like a cave man cause that’s what will happen. Guess what? Everything you use comes from the mining industry. Please help yourself and read more about what you say so you won’t appear like an idiot.
@yes.to.responsible.mining:
better practice yourself and teach your “next generation” ”ALSO” how to breath in carbon dioxide im sure hindi kana makakagawa nang nxt generation…
para tanga lang. oh bakit humihinga parin namn tayo ng oxygen ah,, as if, mining has dated back in ancient times, buhay pa namn ang henerasyon na to ah… kung makapagsalita kayo kala niyo hindi nakinabang ang henerasyon na to pwede ba, kaplastikan lang ei. hypocrite…
A thirty years of responsible mining is enough to prove that there were no accident and destruction happened as I am opposing to a two times visit of every individual who are supporting to a NO MINING IN PALAWAN campaign. If there were such a case did you heard in the news that people in Rio Tuba died because of toxic bullshit spill? They were always insisting, “I visited Rio Tuba twice”, “i was in Rio Tuba for a vacation for 3 days”, “my friend visited Rio Tuba and he told me it was totally destroyed”, this is bullshit they know it and everyone and each of us from Rio tuba knows it, you must give Rio Tuba a long time visit to make her you feel how she love her population. You people who insist you love nature, who doesn’t love nature?, those people who throws thousands of tons of garbage in Metro Manila and suburbs everyday!, those who cuts trees and make logs for their own interests. You, advocates go to Northern Luzon look for the Illegal Loggers, that causes a killer floods you’ll find some for sure if you really love mother nature, and make a petition, don’t disturb Rio Tuba Nickel Mining we didn’t kill anybody, we didn’t harm them. Rio Tuba cuts 20 trees but she plant 100 more, build houses for the mountain people, invite them to join in the market. If you really want to try how destructive this mining is, try to work there and you will find nothing but to live in peace. If you want to make report to the public, try to adapt Rio Tuba, mingle with the people talk to the ageds the chieftains and the kids, then go make your Krusadas.
Didn’t you know that in our everyday life the products of mining are involved? It’s on our body, in our house, in our gadgets and even in the kitchen, they’re nickel and metal, a spoon we used for feeding ourselves and our children, a button in your clothes, your watches, look around!
Look at the government, inside are the most dangerous and destructive creation! The corrupt officials!
Choose a Mining to stop!!!
maraming lugar d2 stin ang mayaman s magandang tanawin,pinagarap ko libutin ang mga ito,kahit man lang s pag view sa mga pikyur nito ay natupad.kaisa po ninyo ako sa pakipag laban sa hangarin mabigyan ng proteksyon ang ating mga kalikasan.I signed up and inviting all my friends to support this….NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN.
There should be no room for any land-based mining in Palawan! This is a call for all public officials in Palawan to give no chance to any applications for land-based mining.
At the end of the day it is the lives of the people of Palawan and the breathtaking environment that should always be preserved. Palawan is our country’s last environmental frontier – we must protect it at all cost!
hi i support no to mining in palawan.ayaw ko namang may mangyari sa likas yaman ng pilipinas at ayaw ku masaksihan ng magiging anak ko ang pag kawasak ng palawan.i asked my friends in facebook, and other social networking site that i know of! NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN!
i support this campaign! i want to save mother earth and our mother land Philippines.. we are so very lucky that were the citizens of the Philippines. mayaman tayo sa natural resources.. one of them is palawan.GOD HELP US IN THIS PRESENT TIMES!
wla nmng dpt n isave n mother nature eh! taga rio tuba palawan ako, wla nmng nccra! nkpunta k n b d2? u should come first! bgo kau mgslita!
Mining is a good source of income but for short terms only. Also, its’ consequences far outweighs any good it brings in the long run. I can only imagine the extent it has done or will do to the serenity of Palawan as a whole.
sa mga makakapal ang muka na gusto lang ay kumita pati ang natitirang gandang yaman ng pilipinas ay gustong pagkakitaan mahiya naman kayo angtindi nyo….sa hinuhukay nyong kalupaan dyan sa inyong minahan sana yan na rin ang inyong magsilbing libingan……SAVE OUR ENVIRONMENT!!!!!!!!!peace
bka ikaw ang mkpal ang mukha! slita k lng ng slita! bkit kong mtigil b ung mining d2 bibigyan mo kmi ng trabho? wag kng mgslita kong ndi m lam kon anong cnsbi mo! pumnta k kya muna d2 bgo k mgpu2tak dayn!
after its too late pls preserve our nature which science cannot create. dont let those powerful men role the world.
sana matigil na yang minning, nakakasira yan ng kalikasan at buhay ng mga palawenios
we? bkit palawenos nmn ako ah! bkit ndi rin ncra? infact nkbuti p nga eh! pumunta k kya muna d2 at ng mkita mo?
Nakalulungkot isiping paunti na nang paunti ang mga magagandang lugar sa ating bansa sanhi ng pagmimina.
Nararapat lamang na tutulan kundi ma’y tuldukan na ang walang habas na gawaing ito at wag nang hintayin pa ang masaklap na bunga.
Nawa’y maipasa ang petisyon at makakalap ng naaayon sa bilang na lagda ang mga taong nasa likod ng makatarungang proyektong ito.
Makakaasa ang kinauukulan na makikibahagi kami sampu ng samahan ng mga nasa matataas na paaralan na makiisa sa layunin ninyo.
I support Ms. Gina Lopez’ cause: NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN! the means will NEVER justify the effect, ecological devastation it will cause! -JB
i repost it already 🙂
…………………..ano bang nakain ng mga tao na nagpahintulot na mag mina sa palawan sa pagkakaalam ko may approval talaga yan sa lokal gov. dun, ano ba iniisip nila PERA nlang ba talaga…ang KAPAL talaga ng mga pag mumukha nilang lahat….hindi nman tayo mga tanga, alam naman talaga natin kung ano ang kahihinatnan kapag matuloy yan, alam din natin kung ano ang magiging resulta ng mga lugar na nag undergo ng mining at alam natin kung gaano ka importante ang palawan…………..kung may kapangyarihan lang ako, talagang durog durogin ko ang mga taong sakim na yan…….ano ba iniisip ng governo natin bakit parang normal lang ang nangyayari, kung tutuosin governo ang unang concern para dyan, governo ang mag protect at unang tumanaw kung ano ang maganda at hindi maganda para sa bayang kinatatayuan nila, e bakit mga private organization pa ang tumayo at gumawa ng aksyon para dito…………..BULOK n b talaga ang pamamalakad ng ating GOVERNMENT, maliban sa CORRUPT, SAKIM pa……………..
nasabi ko to kasi inis na inis n talaga ako sa mga nangyayari sa bansa…at may nakita rin ako na mga lugar na nag undergo ng mining, grabe angsakit, kasi, para bang, patay na ang mga lupa na wala nang tumutubong damo,,, kailangan ba mg sacrifice ng kalikasan para tayo magkapera at ganun nba kahirap ang pilipinas para ibenta natin ang ating kalikasan…at isa pa ha, meron din akong nakita na mga bundok na hinahakot ang lupa nito at dinadala siguro sa ibang bansa kasi kinakarga sa mga malalaking barko, eh, ilang barko kaya ang dumarating sa isang araw , mga 20 cguro ka barko para mg hakot, isipin nyo yan, hinahakot na ang mga bundok natin, until now cguro patuloy parin yun kasi hindi pa naubos ang bundok na binayaran nila sa ating governo, para bang binili nila at malaya na sila kung ano man ang gustohin nilang gawin sa bundok na yun, sa may bandang mindanao yun eh, sa SURIGAO, tapos makita mu na lng na patag na ang paligid nawala na ang bundok, cge nga hindi kba matakot nyan, angsakit talaga…………mga sakim kasi mga nasa governo eh…syempre may share yan sila sa kita ng mining eh bakit ba sila pumayag kung walang offer dba, eh alam nman nila na mali yan…sakim kasi eh………..panu kaya matigil ang mga ganyang gawain…..sana marinig ng mga pilipino eto nang sila ay magising din……
isipin nyo kung ganon din ang mangyari sa palawan…..NAKAKATAKOT……ano pang ipagmamalaki natin kung mawala ang ganda ng palawan…..
I’m from Rio Tuba, one of mining site in Palawan.
I love nature and I’m pro mining… why you so against mining any way… If you can’t look at that side, then try to look on the other side… before saying anything else, u needed enough knowledge about it… Life is a matter of survival, then nature will survive itself…
And so people must survive…
please be inform that mining is one of people resources to provide its scarcity… and not all mining is bad…
so you’re saying the nature will survive alone? maybe yes w/o people like you and rio tuba who destroy every trees in forest and mountains and replace it with buildings and so on and so for.
fact,we need nature that’s why we also need to take care of it. we also have to consider those people in palawan who dont depend in the fruit of mining. we may not be from palawan but palawan is stil a part of philippines so as a concern citizen we have a right to express our own idea about what’s happening in palawan. what you called responsible mining shouldnt have killed people like DOC GERRY ORTEGA. KEEP THIS IN YOUR DIRTY NARROW MIND YOU MAY STOP ME BUT YOU CAN NEVER STOP US ALL
you don’t have any evidence that mining killed Doc. ortega… why point your fingers on us? you can’t even prove it to yourself.. but here is the truth.. many people will die bec. of your chaos theory… your theory is just a theory..
We are part of nature, we need to survive like them…that’s how nature survive..you can’t survive by your own. you need something and some one to depend on..that’s why we depend on natures, and they depends on us..if we die, they will die.. and vice versa.. to know that thing you should come here and leave with us so that you will understand… MAHIRAP KASING MAG-PALIWANAG SA TAONG MARAMING ALAM…PERO HINDI ANG KATOTOHANAN..
@jayden:
True we depend on nature….
@jayden: true we depend on natures…. pero ang kalikasan ay mabubuhay kahit hindi natin sila inaalaagan… so all we have to do is to protect them hindi para ubusin naisip mo ba “Paano kung maubos ang Likas Yaman?” alam mo d masamang mag mina katulad ng sinabi ko… dahil madaming kapakinabangan ang produkto ng pag mimina.. pero karamihan din dito ay na rerecycle… Ang tanong ulit…. “Ang Likas Yaman ba ay narerecyle?”
Ang agenda ng mga taong ito na nakikipaglaban upang mapanatili ang kalisan ay “Ipatigil ang pag mimina sa Palawan sa dahilang ito na ang maituturing na last frontier ng ating bansa”
IPATIGIL = meaning “IPAHINTO” lang hindi sinasabing IPAG BAWAL ang Pagmimina
^____^ getz???
“ON US” so you are not just a resident you belong to RIO TUBA NICKEL MINING.. tatagalugin ko para maintindihan mo. BIGYAN MO NG KONSIDERASYON ANG MGA TAONG HINDI UMAASA SA BUNGA NG MINA. KONSIDERASYON LANG ANG HINIHINGI NG IBA NATING KABABAYAN. TAKE NOTE THE WORD “KABABAYAN” IT MEANS SARILI MONG LAHI. ganto na lang magbibigay ako ng sitwasyon ilagay mo sarili mo sa sitwasyon na yun then ANALYZE ,and PLS OPEN UP YOUR MIND
-magsasaka ka na may ektaryang lupa pero wala kang masaka dahil sa kemikal galing sa mina(ano mararamdaman mo?)
-SILK(tambakan ng kemikal ng minahan) naulanan napuno(saan sa tingin mo mapupunta mga kemikal mo?)
-mga mining investors na wala ng mamina sa pilipinas dahil ubos na ang yamang mineral sa bansa(tingin mo may gana pa sila magbigay ng trabaho sa inyo?)
-HAYOP na naninirahan sa gubat nagputol ang mga nagmimina ng puno binungkal ang lupa(saan sila titira? welcome ba sila sa bahay mo?)
kung alam mo ang katotohan ipaliwanag mo saken isa2 lahat ng yan,at isa pa jayden nakarinig ka na ba ng nagkaron ng kakulangan sa karayom,sasakyan,cellphone,computer,kutsara at lahat ng teknolohiyang dulot ng mina? hindi di ba? eh kakulangan sa bigas nakaring ka na tama? one needle can produce clothes for thousands of people but one sack of rice is not enough for 1 family DONT BE GREEDY
true,responsible mining planted trees for deforestation kung hayup ka na nakatira sa gubat silungan ang mga dahon ng puno, tingin mo sapat ng pamalit ang mga pasibol na halaman sa mga malalagong dahon ng puno na inyong puputulin? BE CONSIDERATE WITH OTHERS
WALANG NAGSABI NA BAWAL MAGMINA SA BUONG MUNDO,kung matalino ka maiintindihan mong sa mga lugar lang na may key biodiversity like PALAWAN at dahil sabi mo nga marami akong alam that’s why im all for no to mining in palawan and other key bio diversity areas at hindi NO TO MINING,period. 😉
at isa pa jayden ang gulo mo kausap,SABI KO MANANATILI ANG NATURE KAHIT WALA TAYO LALO NA KUNG HINDI SISIRAIN. if people will leave the nature alone my gosh,patay ka na buhay pa yan..
widen up your mind jayden im saying this not just because im anti mining,im saying this because im a part of a youth im just concern with our next generation.
hnd po bulok ang gobyerno SA ASPETONG ito, MATALINO AT RESPONSABLE lng ang desisyon na pinili nila.. ANG MGA NAGSUSULONG NG NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN ang makikitid ang utak at nagdudunung dunungan nang WALA SA LUGAR.. KUNG KAMI KAMI NGA DITO GSTO ANG PROYEKTO, IKAW NA HNDI TAGA DITO PA ANG MALAKAS ANG LOOB MO.? “BAKA” namn kasi ang mga nagsusulong ng petisyong ito ANG MGA NAPASAKAN NG SALAPI ANG MGA BUNGANGA.? well, BAKA LNG NMAN…

essay ????
hmmm ??
Noong araw pa may mina na sa Palawan, umunlad ba ang buhay ng mga minero? Hindi di ba? Umunlad ba ang Palawan ng dahil sa pagmimina? Hindi rin di ba? So, why mining when Palawan is on Tourism now? Tourism and mining? Stupidity!!! Mining will be the end of PALAWAN!!!
We will all drown in the mining fields and die “dilat ang mata”
what are your basis that mining is the end of
Palawan…
….you have nothing……
I’m here at mining site for almost 20 years, healthy.alive and kicking… and not dying… feeling secure and w/o a treat that any of this moment things will happen just like what you’re saying… at hindi kayang suportahan ng tourism na sinasabi mo ang buhay ng mga tao dito…ng mga taong binubuhay ng mina…
ha! very well said judith… ang tanong? nkpunta k n b d2 s palawan s mismong site ng mining? rio tuba? dapat cguro pumunta k muna d2 s min. bgo k mgslita ng gayna… maunlad po ang bayan ng bataraza palawan… and as a elpyer i can said n yes! umunlad ang buhay nmin d2, nkpgtapos kmi ng pg aaral dhil s mining! and i proud of it!
i think dapat lng po itigil ang pagmimina sa palawan because hiram lamang natin e2 sa diyos,at kung may responsibilidad ang mga taong nakikinabang d2 ay un ang pangalagaan ang kalikasan dahil hindi tama ang pagcra o pagmimina d2 dahil napaka laking epekto nito sa kalikasan imbis na nakaka2long nakakaperwisyo at nakakapinsala sa isa lamang na kasamaan naginagawa masasabi kong ndi lng isa ang naaapek2han kundi milyon milyon na pilipino ang naapek2han pati na rin ang mga living things na nakikinabang sa kalikasan like hayop and tao,,,,,,,mapaminsalang gawain na ginagawa sa palawan,,,,,kung ano ang ginagawang kasamaan natitiyak ko na ang bunga ng maling pag gamit ng kalikasan ay cguradong mayroong ndi kanaisnais kaparusahan ng mapaminsalang gawain……… kaya sna mapa2pad ang tamang pag gamit ng kalikasan sana magkaroon ng konsensya ang mga taong gus2 lamang ng pang sariling kasiyahan….kung ndi natin mapapangalagaan ang kalikasan sa lalong madaling panahon cgurado na tayu rin ang maapek2han,,,,,,kya sana mapa2pad ang kahilingan ng mga taong may mga mabubuting loob about sa palawan….:))
Ive never been into palawan and im not an environmentalist as well, but i believe that the sense of responsibility towards conservation of natural resources lies in everyone of us…
i love that post dark_knight.. sana lahat ng tao, malawak ang isip at kayang umintindi… pero hndi kasi e…
signed as well
im not a residence in palawan… pero bilang part ng mga taong humahanga sa lugar ng Palawan,,, im also affected kung mag kakaroon ng mining dyan,, kaya hindi dapat matuloy yan mining na yan kasi makakasira yan sa isa sa tourist destination sa ating bansa at yang mga nag babalak na yan na mag hukay dyan sa Palawan sarili lang nila ang iniicip nila mag huhukay sila para sa ginto etc, pero hindi nila alam na ang huhukayen nila kung iisipin ng mga taong yan, kung marunung ba mag iisip ang mga yan,,, ang kanilang ccrain ay isa nang malaking kayamanan na hindi kailangan pa hukayen pa para lang makita ang kagandahan kaya hindi tama ang pag mimina,,, na yn.
mr. harold, you are very much misinformed and what you are saying has no basis. first of all, mining is, and has been operating in palawan for so many years now. the fact that you could use the internet means that you are very benefiting from the products of mining. throw your computer, throw everything made of metal that you have. but then again, i think everything that you have right now is a product of mining, may it be direct or indirectly. i also haven’t been to palawan and i am in the mining industry. please be knowledgeable about responsible mining before saying all those stuff.
i support no to mining in palawan., but hndi lng dapat sa palawan., sa buong mundo ang minin at pag putol ng puno ay dna dpt ginagawang kabuhayan p., dpt ung mga mining at loggers ay dpt mag switch n lng ng bagong business ung hndi nkakasira ng kalikasan!
ang lahat ng nangyayari ngaun pti global warming ay dahil sa wlang kahoy., sana switch n lng silang business,.
kung walang mina, walang sasakyan, panglupa ,pang himpapawid, pang tubig..taon ang bibilangin bago ka makakarating sa ibang lugar,
kung walang mina, walang paliparan.
kung walang mina, walang malls,
kung walang mina, walang pera,
kung walang mina, magtitiis tayo sa daing at tuyong pagkain dahil walang refrigerator,
kung walang mina, maghihirap ang mga hayop n pang kalakal at darami ang mga indangered na hayop s mundo dahil walang mabibiling can goods o kaya noodles, kaya pangangaso na ang ikabubuhay ng mundo.
kung walang mina, walang matataas na gusali, at mauubos ang kahoy sa lahat ng bundok dahil walng bakal na pangunahing kailangan sa pagtayo ng mga gusali,
kung walang mina, babalik ang pamumuhay ng mag tao sa sina-una…stone age, old fasion n damit, walang tv, walng computer, wlang wifi, walang c.p..
“kung ayaw mo sa mina , ayaw mo rin sa pag-unlad”….
subalit kahit n anong pigil natin wala naman tayong magagawa, sapagkat nasa technology era na tayo ngaun, at sinusuportahan ng mga mina sa buong mundo ang teknolohiya… at hindi natin maitanging kakambal na ng ating pang araw-araw na pamumuhay ang mga produkto ng mina,.. at mapalad ang lalawigan ng Palawan sapagkat mayaman ito sa mineral at isa ito sa nagsusuply sa pangangailangan ng mundo…at ng mga tao…
so short-sighted and narrow-minded.
short-sighted and narrow-minded man ako subalit masaya ako sa sarili ko, dahil nakikita ko ang katotohanan n nsa harap ko,,, at hindi ko n kailangang lawakan pa ang aking pagiisip para lamang malaman ang katotohanan… bakit ko pa hahanapin sa kung saan-saan kung ito nasa harap ko lng naman… minsan akala natin malawak ang pag-iisip natin, pero hindi pala.. dahil sa subrang lawak nito nag sama-sama n ang katotohanan at kahangalan… kayat hindi na natin alam kung ang ating pina ninindigan ang katotohanan ba o ang kahangalan…
Every thing in this world has a purpose and a plan.. And I do believe that Our creator created everything very good. Every thing…was very good… but we destroyed it.. we can’t point our fingers to any one, including mining companies because we think they are the one who causes Palawan forest destroyed, we also did it..
if we want to make a difference it should start to ourselves.
But we can’t change it… it is because we’re different from each other, diff. in principle, idea, and character. That’s why we live in diff. community and environment.. see, I don’t need to become like you to understand what you wanted me to understand. Because I already knew it.. The only thing that I think I did is accepting the truth that I live in a place that really needed a mining to be develop, and mining will save our starving and dying community..
Have you realized it? I should be the one supporting this petition cuz I’m living here in Palawan, but I didn’t because I know which to side to stand. And I knew the truth. not because I’m short-sighted and narrow minded, but because I’m living in reality…
Mr. journeyingjames…kung walang mina…wla ang blog mo na ito…sa dahon ng saging mo lang mailalathala ito….
yang gamit mong computer journeyingjames, produkto yan ng mina.. lahat ng gamit mo sa bahay, kutsara, tinidor, cellphone, alahas, relo, pati bahay mo, galing yan sa mina… kng anti-mining ka, sige, by all means, MAMUNDOK KNA…
baka ikaw!
KAW KAYA YON,, MINING, DATED BACK ANCIENT TIMES,,,
James. May point si Citizen105. If mining activity or business is approved, that means, in some areas, the site is suitable for mining talaga. Mining has a lot to do with our present lifestyle natin ngayon. yong mga gadgets natin sa IT. May mga raw materials na galing din sa Mining Industry. So, in short, ang lahat ng sobra, ay hindi na rin tama. Paano natin ma replace ang mining deposits naman? hindi katulad ng Bukid natin na puede tayong mag replant?
So lahat nga activity that will destroy nature ay masama. May isang designated area na man ang mining site. Kung pumasa sila sa Environmental Critical Areas na project, di puede sila. Kund hindi naman, di hindi tuloy.
Ang hind lang maganda ay ang redtape diyan during the processing of permits from DENR.
With regards to your opinion, about scarcity of land. Hindi puede sa riceland tayo mag mining. Kund hindi dun sa area na suitable for mining talaga. Like Chromites, sa mga mabato na bundok yan nakukuha. hindi yan nakukuha sa mga riceland. We have also a mining site here in Bukidnon, dun nga lang sa Mangima Site (are familiar with mangima stones?). Like in romblon, mga marbles naman ang nandun, may mga minerals din dun.
So, james. lets respect ones opinion.
yes, i respect his opinion but more than that let’s respect the environment, the planet we have.
thanks bonzeti
Yeah. I also respect that idea. The question here is on how to control development? How we people can control the development? ——-stop political interference, if there is one.
IF YOU WANT TO RESPECT THE ENVIRONMENT, IN THE FIRST PLACE, YOU SHOULD NOT HAVE MADE THIS BLOG OF YOURS, ANG PAGBABAGO, AT ANG KAGUSTUHAN MONG MAPATIGIL ANG PAGMIMINA, BAKA GUSTO MONG SIMULAN SA SARILI MO, DONT USE PRODUCTS OF MINING, BAKA KUNG WALA NANG TUMATANGKILIK SA PRODUKTO NG PAGMIMINA, BAKA TUMIGIL ITO WHICH IS IMPOSIBLE. JUST ACCEPT THE TRUTH, THAT WE WANT DEVELOPMENT NG COMFORTABLE LIFE, THAT MEANS GETTING UNREPLACABLE MINERALS FROM THE ENVIRONMENT..
hi mr. jeus. i think dapat mong pag-isipang mabuti muna ang sinasabi mo na itigil ang mina sa buong mundo. i am not disrespectful but i think you don’t have any idea about mining. alam mo ba kung saan nanggaling ang raw materials na pinanggawa sa computer or kahit ano pa mang gadget ang hawak mo ngaun? it’s a product of mining mr. jeus. and without mining, hindi lang hi-tech life and dapat nating i-give up, pati na rin ang basic living. nagluluto ka, saan ba gawa yang lutuan mo? metals pa rin, which is from mining. and to enlighten us all, hindi lang metals ang product ng mining. i think everyone should have knowledge in mining before fighting for such cause. =)
thanks for sharing guys! lets continue to share and retweet this. also, in little ways, we can make a difference, please read my friend’s response: http://flipnomad.com/2011/02/no-to-mining-palawan-wake-up-call-for-all-of-us/
sana po kahit nasa high-Tech na tayo na Genera mapangalagaan natin ang ating kalikasan at likas na pinagkukunan ng yaman..lalo na ang Palawan natitirang VIRGIN FOREST ano nang nangyari ngayon ?!
Please tell Ms. Gina Lopez to start helping the environment by having the Lopez Group clean-up the oil spill in Makati that was caused by their family’s company First Phillipines Industrial Corporation (FPIC).
d ako papayag na matuloy ang mining sa palawan kasi ayan nalang nag survive sa pilipinas tapos parang lalasunin rpa nila …. prang hindi pa sila kuntento sa napatay nilang kagubatan …….
bakit ba pagmimina palagi ang napapansin ninyo kapag ang pinag-uusapan ay pagkasira ng mga puno o kagubatan? buti pa nga ang mga minahan kahit minahin nila ang isang gubat, gumagawa pa rin sila ng paraan para maibalik ito ulit. at yan ang responsible mining.. ba’t di nyo bigyang pansin ang pagpapatayo ng malalaking gusali, pasisimento ng inyong syudad? sa tingin nyo, pagnaitayo na nila ang mga malalaking gusali na yan, maibabalik pa ba nila yong mga punong nawala doon?
Batari. In exchange of your opinion. I respect that. But lets consider the land use planning in a certain place. If that is belong to the urban site. Well, building talaga ang itatayo dyan. But our government right now are much aware of green environment. Like in Marikina City. They have a very comprehensive land use plan. They have areas that are restricted for building construction and preserved for green environment.
With regards to areas restricted for development, meron din ang mga LGU nyan, like areas preserved for production. Para na man sa food production yan.
Sa tingin ko, ito ay challenge ng mga LGU para ma control and urban development, that they should consider always the green environment. Kumbaga, they have to adopt the green architecture. New york nga, they are into GREEN ARCHITECTURE NA NGAYON. Please find it in the google. GREEN ARCHITECTURE, to give you some idea regarding new era of building construction because of our Global Problems on Food Production. How about that? Hope that I’ve enlightened and reinforced your discontentment about development.
BONZENTI, ALAM MO NAMN PALA LAND USE PLANNING AND ZONING E… E DI ALAM MO DIN A G TINATAWAG NA MGA ALLOWABLE MINING SITES.? TGNAN MO SA MAPA, UNG KINO-COMMENTAN MO BA ALLOWABLE MING SITE.? HEHEHE.. BAKA MAGULAT KA
responsible_mining.
Please read the context of my comment. As I’ve said, I am reinforcing your opinion. Do not be so sarcastic with your comment. We are not of the same level of thinking. I am trying to give you some “big picture” on this thing. Again, “BIG PICTURE”….

go palawan!!!!
journeyingjames…kung walang mina, hindi mo mailalathala ang blog na ito, baka sa dahon ng saging mo lng maisusulat ito, db?
yes and no, zing_chan! yes, i agree that if there is no mining,there is no blogging.
no bec, the letter says no mining is palawan only. 🙂
This is a stupid claim. So okay lang pala sa’yo na yung ibang lugar minahin wag lang ang palawan??? Really, and you think people will support you with this bullshit? Why singled out palawan? The thing is, you’re not really sure where you stand. You’re just echoing someone else’s propaganda and you want to believe in yourself that you’re helping palawan by pushing baseless advocacy of the media. You think we will be contented to know that you’re okay with mining as long as it’s not in palawan? Tsk tsk. You’re just making yourself appear stupider after every post you make.
and you hide your real name and email address mr/msyestoresponsiblemining?
before making a “stupid” claim, read the context.
hi mr. james. as we all know, hindi naman po lahat ng areas sa palawan ay tourist spot. meron din po na hindi naaabot/pinupuntahan ng mga turista and those communities depend on mining for their income. kung ititigil po ang mina sa palawan, paano na ang mga komunidad na ito? i love the environment and i want to protect it from destruction and at the same time i work for a mining company. there is a thing called RESPONSIBLE MINING and this benefits all cause.
akala mo sino ka makapagsalita..oo my point ka din pero kng titimbangin kng ano ang mas maganda at magiging masalimoot na kinakalabasan sa susunod na henirasyon..talagag ikw ang una at iyong mga pamilya mo ang unang ibabaon na buhay dyan.alam naman natin kng ang kalikasan na ang naniningil wlang patawad.dito nga sa cagayan de oro city konting minahan lng at mga ilegal loggers ilng buhay na ang binawian how much more ang sa inyo dyan ilng years na.mapagsamantala rin kau kc akala niyo marami pang kagubatan dyan sa inyo.hintayin nyo lng my panahun din kayong mukhang pera.!sa ganda ba ng palawan marami pwedi pagkakakitaan dyan.not only in mining.gusto nyo lng kc instant.maghihinaty pa ba kau kng kaylan yan masisira mga tanga!
JOURNEYINGJAMES! BKIT NKPUNTA K N B D2 S RIO TUBA PALAWAN? PUMUNTA K KYA MUNA D2 BGO K PUMTAK PUTAK DYAN! KMI NI ZING_CHAN MTAGAL NG RCDENTI D2 SINCE BIRTH UNG MINHN N YAN AY MS MTNDA P S MIN, BKIT ALA N NMN KIMNG NKI2TA N PGCRA BUNGA NG MINAHAN? I DARE U! PUMNTA K D2 S RIO TUBA!
okay…meaning you only want to Save Palawan, how about the other mining areas in the Philippines? like Baguio (where gold is mine) and some part of Mindanao (where there are mining sites also) ….hayaan nlng ntin clang macrossed out sa map?…don’t you understand that the issue here in not the devastation of the forest…it is the responsible mining.,..what happened in Marcopper, i think it’ll never gonna be happen here because we are practicing responsible mining.
im just a nobody,, a wage minimum earner…as much as i want to help to save palawn,, well, i cant..but when i heard this over the radio, i thought maybe i could help by just signing up..Palawan is one of the place i want to go if i could just afford a good vacation.. but i think it well take too soon,, i said maybe after 2 years? but how im i going to do that if they are starting to destroy palawan? i ask my self if they continue to do that,, do i still have the chance to see the paradise of palawan?..pls. maybe im just nobody but im not that kind of person of no conscience. as long as they can get money out of it ,they dnt care what well happen..To those authorities who have a rightful chance to stop them,, pls..do it. For those people who still care,, pls.. sign up..not just sign up,,if you can afford to help..pls. do not hesitate..for those people who pursue in mining..leave Palawan alone.Greed… wont take u so far!.
nature cannot be replaced by technology,
there should be a limitations in anything.
Equipments can be fixed but nature are the only unique given by GOD that should be preserved.
We, people should always think twice not only for the better of our future but for the best of our world and universe that we can also prove to GOD that WE value HIS GIFTS!
PRESERVE MOTHER EARTH, PRESERVE PALAWAN!
please don’t be one sided with your opinions with regards to mining. as i googled this post, & read the other reports in no2mininginpalawan.com, i was really amazed na ung mga small scale miners pa ang me ganang magreklamo sa pagpasok ng mga large scale mining company. wow talaga, because in the first place, the large scale mining companies must strictly comply first with so many regulations set by the government before they can even move. while the small scale miners, wala silang sinusunod kung san nila tinatapon ang mga waste nila, at yun ang masama.
i’ve been to palawan & i also believe that its really a wonderful place, pero i doubt that mining in the south will post a very big problem on the whole province. i’ve many friends in rio tuba, & they’re doing fine.
please don’t be bias. if you really want to mining, then it should be worldwide, hinde specific na palawan lang. pero tignan natin kung pano tayo uusad. dahil lahat ng teknolohiyang hawak nio, at lahat ng pagkain na nilalamon nio, lahat yan eh dahil sa mina.
I’m challenging you all who oppose the totality of the mining industry. Live a lifestyle with your principles!!! deprive and avoid using any metal based material because the fact that you don’t understand is that. LAHAT NG PRODUKTO NG TEKNOLOHIYA GALING SA MINING INDUSTRY!! Puro kayo reklamo, hindi nyo pinag-iisipang mabuti ang mga pinapanukala nyo. We do responsible mining here in the Philippines and that must be the main focus of this issue. To pursue responsible mining and not totally banning it!
Before making any comments, please do make sure you know what responsible mining is and how large scale mining companies comply with the rules and laws implemented by the local Government (tails disposal, etc). If you are willing to give up the luxuries you have right now — cellphones, cars, air conditioners — then go ahead and say no to mining. Wag naman sana tayo one sided.
Huwag naman masyadong stereotypical. Hindi lahat ng nagmimina e pabaya sa kalikasan. Tsaka masyado kayong naka-focus sa isang side.
Isipin niyo, kung wala ang pagmimina, ano na lang ang mangyayari sa pangaraw-araw na pamumuhay natin? Maraming mawawala ngayon na naging necessity na nating mga tao.
Hindi dapat “No to Mining” ang pinupush ng tao. Dapat “No to irresponsible Mining”!
sana hindi matoloy kasi palawan nalang cguro ang magandang lugar sa ating bansa at ngayon pati naman ito pakikialaman.
sana hindi na ito ma2loy talaga.
to all those who who are not against mining in palawan, i appreciate you guys using your real names and email addresses. i find it uncool you spamming the post with your ideas without you guys signing your real name. it means you are not proud of what you are saying, hiding yourselves in pseudonames.
aha..aha…matalino k nga talaga journeyingjames…makitid nga lang pag-iisip mu…
anu kya sasabihin sau ng kaibigan nating si Dr. Ortega kung mamatay sa gutom ang mga nabubuhay sa mina???… gusto mu rin atang mamatay kami sa gutom…
oh! ang pangalan ko ay marie idella gregorio laguisma! yan! satisfi? huh!
James, what a good life you have as a traveler. Maybe, you do not realize while you are aboard a plane, that its engine is made up of nickel alloys, and the airports and the buildings you come to, enter and leave are made of stainless steels that have nickel alloys in them. Nickel na pinagpapaguran naming iextract dito sa Rio Tuba.
You support the cause (No to Mining in Palawan 10M SIgnature campaign) without even studying and researching on the issue. Ms Gina Lopez’s letter is full of emotive but baseless assertions and mistaken facts and you did not bother to check. The NGOs based in Puerto princesa have found a frontline speaker in the person of Mr Ortega (the murdered broadcaster, Ms Lopez’ friend who is her main man in her Palawan projects). Yet they themselves hide the fact that mining exists even in Puerto Princesa. Why are these Puerto-based NGOs silent about mining within their confines is something worth inquiring into. (Said NGOs that Ms Lopez associates herslef with have been attacking our mine here since 1990s.) And Ms Lopez has to include in her letter that Pto Princesa is mining-free?!? Just shows that she is not really familiar of Palawan and that what she has are these NGO’s baseless words.
Rio Tuba is just one of the villages in Bataraza town. You go here and you’ll see that it is just a small fraction of the land being occupied by the mine. You go here and you will see how a responsible mine operates. The community is even involved in mined-out areas rehabilitation and reforestation. Wala kaming disaster ng tulad ng sa Marinduque, etc. Sana hindi ka ganoon kadaling maniwala sa friend mo.
Sana hindi lang puro environment nasa isip natin. Kasi tayong mga tao mismo part din naman ng biodiversity. Hindi lang naman din puro environmental protection ang konsepto ng sustainable development.
Please check out the Palawan Council for Sustainable Development website for an accurate and credible info about the state of environment of Palawan.
Good luck on your travels. May you find relevance in each trip you make by fully understanding the places and the people you have been to. We expect highly of you.
to those who are wanting to stop mining in palawan especially in southern part.. do you realize what will going to happen to those who will be affected (thousand of employees)by the closure of the mining. kaya b a naten silang bigyan ng hanapbuhay for them to support their families if ever na mawalan sila ng trabaho kung napapasarado ang minahan? pls do ask this question to ourselves..
crap! NO MINING? are you sure? the pc that you’re typing in will not be there if no mining took place! come on! i’m a mining engineering student and there is such a thing called responsible mining, we’ve been to different mine sites in the philippines and environmental rehabilitation after the mine life is required! Are you sure there is no good in mining?
crap! NO MINING? are you sure? the pc that you’re typing in will not be there if no mining took place! come on! i’m a mining engineering student and there is such a thing called responsible mining, we’ve been to different mine sites in the philippines and environmental rehabilitation after the mine life is one of great importance! Are you sure there is no good in mining? mining applications are different from mining permits.The whole Palawan will not be mined!!!! it is such that we are blessed with mineral reserves that we can mine out and rehabilitate with all the technically educated persons that we have (+ no corrupt government)! don’t just blame it to mining!
protect our nature………
hope this will be successful
To All,
Do you really know what mining is about? Do you even know that the same computer/laptop you are using is made possible because of mining? Your mobile phone, your DSLR, your car, your house construction materials.. if you are against mining then live the way people during the stone age.
hi gusto ko lang malaman kung bakit 10 million signatures ang kailangan natin ?
i hope that hindi namatuloy ang miningsa palawan..
I do not completely close my door on mining. C’mon let’s not see things in black and white. The problem is not the mining industry itself but how these companies do their work. Many of them will say they go for responsible mining, but how responsible can they be? Iwanang tuyot ang mga farmlands at patay na mga isda dahil sa toxic na dumadaloy sa mula sa minahan? Ialis ang ating mga indigenous people sa kanilang lupain para lang hukayin ang kabundukan? etc..
I can understand why the NGOs and concerned government officials pose this mining ban in Palawan. Mga kapatid, tourist destination ang Palawan. Walang mining company na hindi nanira ng kapaligiran- even to the smallest extent.
I know that we have biases. The key here is to know the context, understand the people, know the true meaning of responsibility and accountability. Know what the words “too much” means.
bakit d pa pigilan ni noynoy yan ala taqlagang kwenta
to all who proponents of mining in palawan, please watch this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7WyqCo1C58&feature=related
Journeying James, as a traveler you know that to fully grasp what a place is, you have to experience it. To know more about the people, you have to immerse yourselves in their day-to-day living. Schedule a trip in one of the mining communities of the country. Pumunta ka sa Rio Tuba, isang mining community sa Palawan na existing since 1970s.
May mga empleyado rin ng minahan na nagsasaka (siyempre hindi sa minesite). Marami sila sa Rio Tuba. The man in the video is merely reasoning in circles and i wonder how could you easily be persuaded by such weak arguments.
What is needed is to strike a balance between environmental protection and developmental goals. Please read on the The Real Score by the Palawan Council for Sustainable Development. The article is available and can be accessed @ http://www.pcsd.ph
i respect your stand but please tell me “what’s next if all the mountains in southern palawan are mined already? what’s next?”
and please PalaOne, i find it cowardice to comment using not your real name or email add. the pastor on the video might be reasoning in circles but then again he is bulwark and passionate, reveals his true identity compared to the “yes-to-mining-advocates” here.
sir journeyingjames FYI hindi po lahat ng bundok sa southern part ng Palawan ay minimina…at hindi po mina ang sumisira sa bundok ng southern Palawan…at hindi p poh sila sira..at hindi poh sila masisira..dahil ginagawa namn nmn ang rehabilitasyon sa mga lugar n sinasabi nilang sira…
maraming salamat sa inyong opinion, sana po ay maliwanagan kayo..
Hindi naman siguro “all mountains in southern palawan” will bemined.
What’s next after mining? Mining as it operates not only provides jobs, income, it also arms the people with lifeskills and resources which the community can use once mining ceases.
To use or not to use one’s real name on the internet is a right of everyone. This is how it is on the world wide web. It;s not cowardice, traveler james, it is exercising a right to protect one’s personal details and have privacy. What matters is the substance of one’s assertions, not who asserts.
Sana di ito cover-up ng MAKATI OIL LEAK…please check this one out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lopez_Group_of_Companies ….isa kasi ang FPIC and not just one but a major company of the Lopezes who owns also ABS-CBN.
kahit anong klase ng mining, hindi lamang sa palawan ang ating patigilin. wag nating pabayaan na ma-exploit ang ating resources, banyaga man o pilipino. pasaporte into ng mga susunod na generasyon sa kanilang biyahe sa hinaharap.
ang nais po ba ninyong sabihin ay huwag magmina ngaun para may minahin sila sa susunod na generasyon? dahil kahit ano pong pigil natin sa pagmimina, magmimina at magmimina pa rin, hanggat may pangangailangan tayo hindi matatapos ang pagsusuply…
mayaman po ang ating bansa sa miniral… kung ang yaman natin ang bubuhay sa atin bakit pa natin ito ipagkakait sa sarili natin, bakit p tau magpapaalipin sa ibang bansa, magtrabaho para sa kanila kung meron nmn tau… msakit man po subalit iyon ang totoo.. ibang bansa ang nakikinabang sa atin dahil ayaw nating makinabang sa sariling atin.
I am a resident of Palawan but working here in Manila. It really breaks my heart and i felt sad sa nakita ko when i had a vacation sa Palawan last December lang ang bilis sinira ng pagmimina yung bundok na hitik sa puno.. one year ago lang ay na scrape ang gilid nya.Nakakalungkot pagmasdan yung bundok na kung makakapagsasalita lang sya siguro parang taong iiyak yun at magmamakakawa para siyang binalatan at hiniwa ng walang kalaban laban. Mining itself is not bad, its the attitude and motives of the people. Minerals are also created by God to be extracted and to be of use pero not to the extent of destroying the things that He also created. Its hard to weigh things kung sino ang tama at sino ang mali. Taga-palawan ka man o turista everyone has its own opinion. Siguro what we need is regulation ng mining sa Palawan not a total ban. We should always remember na lahat ng kulang ay masama at lahat ng sobra ay masama pa din. Sa mga nakatira sa mga lugar sa Palawan na ang pangunahing pinagkukunan ng kabuhayan ay ang pagmimina siguro nga sa ngayun meron kayong nakukuha at diyan kayo nabubuhay pero ni minsan ba di ninyo naisip na papaano na kung maubos na ang lahat ng minerals sa lugar nyo?? sana lang you should be responsible with your acts also. Matuto din kayong kilatisin at tingnan ang epekto nito sa pangkalahatan hindi lang dahil yun na lang ang ikinabubuhay nyo.. maraming paraan para mabuhay di lang sa pagmimina. Minsan yung programs for social responsibility ng isang mining company ay di sapat para ireplenish ang nawala.
Reflect on it… saan ba tlga nag ugat ang lahat ng destructions. Its from us tayo mismo na taga Palawan. We blame it to the government officials to our leaders who allowed mining sa Palawan pero di ba natin naisip sino ba ang naglagay sa pwesto sa mga Government Officials na yun di ba tayo rin. We cant point fingers to anyone kasi sa bawat pagturo natin isa ang nakaturo sa iba pero apat na daliri natin nakaturo sa sarili natin.
Lets All advocate for a Responsible Mining in Palawan. We dont have to fully stop the operations right away but to regulate it and be responsible.
Lets all Pray for Palawan! God is in Control.

NO TO MINING? Tumira na lang kayo sa kweba at i-give up ang technology (including ang gadgets na ginamit sa pag-type niyo dito) at bahay niyo dahil lahat yun ay galing sa minahan. Before you react, PLEASE RESEARCH first! CEMENT, WIRES, METALS, MACHINERY, APPLIANCES, CELL PHONE, TV, RADIO, CAMERA, SASAKYAN etc, lahat yan galing sa minahan! Think and research before you react!!!
bakit kaya gnun? halos lahat na lang kuntra sa mina..tpos, nakakatawa taga ABS-CBN. Bagong project. NO TO MINING hahaha… sabi ni boss..??? isang pamilyang walang puso… panig sa medjo katotohanan at panig sa piling bayan… subra kung maka comment…
sana baguhin na nila kasabihan nila… nakakaguilty kasi..para sa kanila…
bagay din yong ‘bago mo linisin ang dungis ng iyong kapwa ay linisin muna ang putik sa mukha”
ito ang tinatawag na trabahong pang personal…
ito ang tinatawag na abuso sa kalayaan…
I’ve seen the documentary presented by Arnel Mercado in ABS-CBN’s KRUSADA. I was really moved with what I saw, mga taong sobra naapektuhan ng mining sa Palawan, mga taong nawalan ng kabuhayan dahil sa pagiging makasarili ng ilang grupo ng mga banyagang tao na walang pakundangang nagmimina sa Palawan. Nasaan ang ating gobyerno? Nasan si Pnoy na nagsabing siya daw ang ating boss? Nasaan ang DENR na silang dapat mag protekta sa ating mga kalikasan? Bakit hinahayaan ng gobyerno ng Pilipinas na sirain ng mga banyagang kumpanya ang natural na kalikasan ng ating bansa, bakit nagpapakatanga ang lokal na gobyerno ng Palawan para sa pansamantalang benepisyo ng Mining kumpara sa permanenteng epekto nito sa ating kalikasan?! Wag nating hayaan na muling gumanti ang kalikasan sa atin at tsaka tayo aaksyon kapag huli na ang lahat. Sana maisip ng ating gobyerno ang permanenteng epekto ng Mining sa Palawan, sana maisip nila na mas maraming Pilipino ang mawawalan kapag nagpatuloy ang Mining na yan! Magising sana sa reyalidad ang mga opisyanlna ating gobyerno! Let us all join hands to permanently stop the mining in Palawan!
xcuse lng po ha, taga rio tuba palawan po ako.. bkit po nkpunta k n b d2 s palawan? pumunta k kaya muna d2 s min! ndi mo b lam ang nggwa ng mining d2 s min? kinukunbida kitang pumunta d2 s min at ng mkita mo… ndi ung slita k lng ng slita, ung mga dukyomentryo ni arnel mercado pnay negative lng lahat, bkit ung mga positive eh ndi nya inuulat? syempr boss nya c gina lopez eh n anti mining!

i am for responsible mining here in MY OWN PLACE, PALAWAN.. wag nyo namang pigilang umunlad ang aming lugar.. at wag kaming alisan ng lugar na mapagtatrabahuhan upang kaming mga nakapagtapos ng enhenyerang kurso at iba pa ay hindi mapilitang pumunta sa mga “GOD FORSAKEN COUNTRIES” .. at kung wala kaung alam sa pagmimina wag nalang kayong makisawsaw at mag comment dahil magmumukha kaung Tanga sa harap ng mga taong nagtatrabaho sa minahan.. ang pagmimina ay marangal na trabaho, maayos na pinapakinabangan ang biyayahang handog ng maykapal.. hindi gumagawa ng issue para makahingi ng pundo sa WWF, etc..
No to mining in Palawan. Sayang kung masisira ang yamang kalikasan natin nang dahil lang sa MINING na yan.
Isa ako sa tumututol sa MINING, sana tulad ko suportahan nyo kami.
Maraming salamat Kaibigan….
from Iligan City – John Michael S. Orit
are you sure? alam mu rin ba na ung minimina ay likas na yaman rin ng bansa? daah.. pag sure b.
as a person who already gone to palawan, at naappreciate ang ganda nito, I also dont want that mining thing to come up in the first place, sana mapakinggan to ng gobyerno.
I stayed in the southernmost part of Palawan for a year and I witnessed how the mountains of Palawan were destroyed by illegal loggers. There are researchers coming to the site to study the place for the possibility of mining. The natives were always fooled by these people (because a lot of them are uneducated). And they are usually displaced when the mining activity commence. I hope that those involved or pro mining will not only think of themselves but also of the innocent people of Palawan. The treasures of the Earth are not only for those who haves…for those who knows…for those who are powerful…but the treasures of the Earth are for all of us… Let us preserve them not only for our generation but also for the future generation…
no to mining save our mother earth and save the future children…
wags sana matuloy???/ tskkk
dont destroy ..wooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhh break it down yow ..!!
2 all miners,wg ninyong crain ang mga puno,,we already xperence d clima8 chnge..wg n ntin dgdagn p!!
oh? un ba ang alam mu? taga san k b? kung taga manila ka.. kau ang mas may malaking contribusyon sa climate change… ang pulosyon ninu… mag reseach ka nga bago ka mag comment, lumalabas tuloy na wala kng alam..salita ka lng ng salita di ka nmn nag-iisip..
taga mindano ako at alam ko na ang pagmimina ay malaki ang sinisira na mga kagubatan. pinuputol na mga puno. walng nag mimina na hindi nagpuputol at hindi sinisira ang kalikasan. gamitin mo utak mo.
yon lang kasi ang alam mu nagmamalaki ka pa..diba sa lugar mu maraming pinya..di ba kau ngpuputol ng kahoy para tamnan ng pinya??? ei di dapat un ung una mung puntahan at putakan kasi sinisira nila ang kalikasan, mas malapad kaya ng pinutol ninyong kahoy kysa sa mina dito samin..nakakarating ka na agad dito samin, ei hindi ka pa nga nakakasimula jan snu…may kaingin ba jan sa inyo? dito kasi sa palawan marami, yan kasi ang trabaho ng mga native ng palawan..yon. mas malawak ung sinusunog nila kysa nilinis ng mina..at sila taon taon sumusunog.at sa ibat-ibang bundok pa..nung tinayo ba ang bahay mu walang pinutol na kahoy? tapos ituturo mu ang mina na naninira ng kalikasan ei mas marami nmn kaung masira… sabi ng ng uncle ko mga kahoy dw jn sanyo malalaki, may butas pa ng bala ng baril.. and besides hindi lng mina ang dahilan ng climate change…engot
if ever masira nang tuluyan ang nature ng palawan, tayong mga Pilipino pa din ang magdurusa. maganda ang kalikasan pero pag nasaktan, sa ibang paraan lumalaban. nature has its own way to take revenge. what goes around comes around……
ang magandang naidudulot ng mining ay nakikita agad2x sa madaliang panahon lamang pero ang masamang epekto nito ay unti unti lamang at hindi mo agad mapapansin. pero pag ang kalikasan ang gumanti, di kayang bayaran ng anumang halaga ang buhay na mawawala kung sakaling dumating na ang paghihigante ng kalikasan. ang tao kc masyadong gahaman, di man lang nag iisip kung ano ang mangyayari sa kinakabukasan.
talaga? ei kung hindi mu nga kayang mgsurvive ngaun, iniisip mu pa ang bukas…nag-iisip k b talaga..hindi nmn uubusin ng mina ang bundok.. un lang meyrong diposito ng mina… sobra ka kung makapagreact parang sigurado ka.. parang ka ring si Ms. Gina.. dada ng dada wala namang alam… sa subrang dami ng sinabi nya, ang dami na tuloy mali…lumalabas na siyang sinungaling at gumagawa gawa lang ng kwento… ei di nung ngsalita ung mga experto lumabas tuloy syang walang alam…laban kau ng laban di namn ninu alam ang inyong pinaglalaban..
sinong eksperto mo? si carlos arcilla na walang nasagot at the end of the discussion? he los the conversation darling hahah poor you
let’s all save mother earth!
be a responsible citizen of our country…
let us all save mother earth!!!!!
be a responsible citizen of our country…..
to all anti mining here tanggapin naten ang hamon na hubad tayong mamuhay o gamitin ang mga dahon para gawing damit pero para sa mga pro mining kahit isang patak ng malinis ng tubig,isang butil ng bigas,isang piraso ng gulay wag kayong kakain,at wag kayong lalanghap ng sariwang hangin at walang kemikal tignan naten sino mauna mamatay
ano to? usapang barbero…??? kung mgkoment ka ayusin mu nmn..nakikiride on k n nga lng sablay pa…
ano ganyan ka na lang? pag di mo mo masagot ginagawa mong katatawanan? hahaha
Bakit ganito yung logic? Kapag ba nagmimina, automatically that means na sinisira na ang kapaligiran? Pwede namang iimplement ang responsible mining. At dun sa nakalagay sa taas na yung tailings seep directly into the sea, hindi yun totoo. Canada’s and Australia’s booming industries are the products of responsible mining. Ang Pilipinas ay isa sa mga pinakamayaman pagdating sa minerals. Nandyan na nga para tumulong sa ating makariwasa, babalewalain lang natin. Pwede naman tayong mag-ingat sa pangangalap ng mga resources na ito..
Bakit mo ipagkakait samin ang natural resources na ito? It wasn’t yours in the first place. Ang mga nasa mining sector, niyu-utilize lang nila ang mga underground resources for everyone’s use and consumption din naman. They are required to replace all trees or resources na naapektuhan sa mining project.
Umpisahan mo na ang iyong advocacy laban sa mining. Hubad kang mamuhay sa lugar niyo. Yayain mo rin mga utol mo at ang buong barkada. Tutal nangyari na rin ang hindi paggamit ng mga kagamitang walang halong metal diba, nung Stone Age. Sa university namin, pinagtatawanan ang mga anti-mining because of the misinformation sa buong Pilipinas.
Madaling sabihin, mahirap gawin.
Ok then, exploit all our natural resources! But the very issue here is mining in Palawan! Protected areas are not supposed to be mined. Self-explanatory, right? You cut down a tree, and replace them with a hundred or so. But a tree doesn’t grow 5 meters overnight.
I believe these are also being discussed in YOUR UNIVERSITY.
I agree when you said that the Philippines is one of the richest in natural resources. But do we, Filipinos, benefit largely from it? The answer is very evident. NO! The foreigners do. They exploit our resources, and we get only a little portion from their profit.
You want responsible mining? Then go to Australia or Canada, NOT IN PALAWAN!
wag kang tanga, pwede, mag isip ka nga, bakit ba ang kitid ng utak mo. ayaw mo lang kasing tangapin ang katotohanan NA KAHIT ANONG GAWIN MO HINDI MO MAPIGILAN ANG PAGMIMINA, PWEDE BA, MAY MGA LUGAR NA PWDENG MINAHIN AT MAY MGA LUGAR NA PWDENG SAKAHIN, DIDNT YOU KNOW, MINING ANG AGRICULTURE CAN GO TOGETHER,,hamon, tae ang hamon mo, stupid,,,, CGE GAMIT KA NG DAHON PARA PANDAMIT, BAKIT SA DAMI NG GAGAMITIN MONG DAHON, SAAN KA KUKUHA, SA PUNO, EI SISIRAIN MO DIN PALA YONG PUNO EI,
“im not anti mining nor pro mining….we all know dat mining gve employment but ang hnd magnda s mining once n naubos n ang mga natural resources ntin hnd n nla maibabalik p yun..Nasisira ang KALIKASAN…and for me we need to preserve our Natural Resources..for the next generation…
maraming advantages dn nmn ang pgmimina all the Techy Gadgets cme from the mining at mining can make our life easy because of that….pro kung iisipin kpg wla ng mamimina ang mga mining companies hnd dn nmn n cla makakpgbgay ng trabaho..at kung lht ng binipisyong ipinamamahagi ng mga mining companies ay sa pgmimina nggagaling PNO kpag wla ng MIMINAHIN….at Naubos n nla lht ng Natural Resources…??at hnd nmn lhat nkikinabang s mga benefits nanggagaling s mining.
Kaya nyo dn bang mabuhay ng hnd kumakaen ng mga produkto n galing s produkto ng mga magsasaka??
s bawat taon n lumilipas nauubos n ang mga Puno s ibat ibng bundok s Pilipinas…Its been a Yr.pra mkpagpalago ng isang mayabong n Puno But only a second a minute can destroy it…!!
Palawan is not fit for mining industry.
gnun ba ang pagkakaunawa mo? i’m sure n npag aralan mu ang demand and supply..so un ung mas madaling paliwanag sa magulo mung pag-iisip. kung mataas ang demand, kaylangan ring tumaas ng supply. sa dami ng pupolasyon ng Pilipinas, mas tumaas ang demand ng pangangailangan nila. at isa ang mina sa nag susuply nito. halimbawang bawasan natin ang supply at tanggalin natin ang supply ng pagmimina magririsulta ito sa malaking kakulangan..ang tanong panu mu iyon mapupunan??
pilipinas lang ba ang pwde pagkunan ng supply? huh? gano kayo kasigurado na di matutulad ang palawan sa nauru? at gano ka kasigurado sa sarili mo na isa kang mamamaya ng rio tuba sa iyong pananaw baket may mga kababayan kang naghihirap at nagrereklamo tungkol sa pagmimina
dat’s the reason na dito nalang sa atin kumuha ng supply dahil mura,,ei kung hidi nga mabayaran ng bansa ang utang nya ngayon, uutang na nman ulit ng panibago..for sure hindi na iyon kaya ng budget….pasosyal ka kasi ng sobra..be practical namn..tangkilikin ang sariling atin..dapat nga maging proud tau dahil may mina tau at tau ang binibilhan,,ei kysa tau ang bumili…
AT TSKA NGA PLA ANONG KUNEKSYON NG SINABI NI PITO SA SINASABI MO ANG TINATANONG NYA PANO KUNG WALA NG MIMINAHIN EH DI WALA NA DIN TRABAHO?
AT DHIIL PINAGBABAWAL ANG MINA THAT MEANS BAWAL NA DIN KAME GUMAMIT NG MGA PRODUKTO NG MINA? EH PANO KUNG BAWALAN NAMEN KAYO KUMAIN NG PRODUKTO NG MAGSASAKA?
YON NA NGA YON EI, KUNG PIPIGILAN NU ANG MINA MAWAWALAN NG TRABAHO..AT KUNG WALA NG MIMINAHAHIN UN NG ANG PANAHON NG PAG POPROCESS..U THINK KASI NA MINA IS ALL ABOUT PAGHUHUKAY LANG..SORRY KA KASI HINDI UN GANON..
TAGA RIO TUBA KASI AKO KYA ALAM KO..
BKIT AKALA MU BA PURO MINERS LNG ANG NAKATIRA SA RO TUBA??? MY MGA KAPITBAHAY DIN KAMING MAGSASAKA..AT MAY MGA TANIM DIN KAMING GULAY…AT KUNG BAKIT MAY NAGREREKALAMO? SABIHIN KO NA ANG TOTOO..”KATAMARAN” NAG HIHINTAY LANG KASI SILA NG IAABOT SA KANILA, AT KUNG WALA NG IAABOT SA KANILA MAGAGALIT SILA, DAPT NGA KAMI PA ANG MAGALIT DAHI HINUHOT-HOTAN N NGA KAMI NAGREREKLAMO PA SILA,,,AT KUNG PIPIGILIN NU ANG MINA MAS LALO SILANG MAHIHIRAPAN DAHIL WALA NA SILANG MAHOHOTHOTAN…HINDI KASI NILA UN NAIISIP..
ALAM KO LAHAT YAN DAHIL TAGA RIO TUBA AKO..FOR SURE WALA KNG ALAM DAHIL HIDI KA TAGA DITO KAYA BETTER TO KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT, CUZ U DON’T KNOW ANYTHING..
“whatever” jaydenfernando Just wait and See..Let your Nature Be Your Teacher..!!! Malalaman mo at the End Ang Value Ng Kalikasan s Bawat Nilalang..Lahat ng may Buhay ay Mhalaga at Dapat pahalagahan..hmmmffff
oR Should I say “Dont Let your Nature Be Your Teacher..!!!! “
manghuhula ka ba o mangmang… kaya nga ng-iingat diba.. kung mahalaga pla ang buhay ba’t di mu ckaping mabuhay.. di pa nga humahapon iniicip mu na agad ang bukas..
1st – hindi sinasabing “Bawal Magmina” dahil ito ay madaming naiitutulong satin.. NGUNIT kung ito ay KALABISAN na at ito’y nakakasira sa ating KALIKASAN Mararapat lng na ipatigil ito….
– sa mga hindi po makaintindi isipin nyo nlng ito “bakit nagtayo ng campaign na ito?” para lng perahan ang mga tao??? siguro ganun ang isasagot ng iba dyn tama po ba?? pero naisip nyo ba kung gaano kahirap mag campaign upang ipaglaban ang advocacy at may nag buwis pa ng buhay para lamang d2? un po ba ay maituturing na nggagamit at namemera? naisip nyo po ba iyan???
@metallurgist: tama ka madaming nagagawang product dahil sa pag mimina…. pero naisip mo ba panu kung isang araw wala na kayong mamina? anu ba ang mangyayari sa “mga natulungan nyo”? malamang matitigil narin ang pagtulong dahil wala ng pondo… kung sasabihin mong lifetime pagtulong heheh gudluck nlng ^,^ “ANU MAS GUSTO NYO … MAGHUBAD PERO MAY MAKAKAIN OR MAGDAMIT PERO WALANG MAKAIN”
@marie: empleyado ka malamang may benefits ka… paano ang mga taong naninirahan dyn at hindi nag tatrabaho dyn sa minahan… meron ba silang benifits? eh kung ikaw kaya ang pumunta sa mga residente dyn sa paligid ng mine site… at alamin mo mga hinaing nila.. alm mo ba un ms.marie? “Paano ang mga taong ang ikinabubuhay ay pangingisda, pagtatanim atbp?” wag po sarili ang isipin natin…
PARANG AWA NYO NA GUMISING KAYO WAG NYONG KALKALIN ANG LAHAT NG LIKAS YAMAN NATIN DAHIL HINDI NYO ITO MAIBABALIK SA DATI… ANG MGA MATERIAL NA BAGAY AY NALALAOS NGUNIT ANG LIKAS NA YAMAN AY MANANATILI HABANG BUHAY KUNG ITO’Y AALAGAAN AT IINGATAN. PARA NARIN ITO SA FUTURE NG MGA MAGIGING ANAK NATIN…
uulitin ko po “HINDI IPINAG BABAWAL ANG MAG MINA AT LALO WALANG MASAMA SA PAG MIMINA” ITO AY NAGIGING MASAMA DAHIL SA KALABISAN AT SOBRANG PAG AABUSO SA KALIKASAN….
esep esep kung esep kau…… =D
It’s a no-brainer, mining will eventually destroy nature and the damage will be irreversible. So I’m supporting the “no-to-mining” campaign. If you care about your kids and your great grand kids, then let them experience the beauty of Palawan.
may point ka 2gud4You..bt ibahin mu ang sitwasyon mning mga taga rio tuba..hindi masama ang pagmimina… at hindi masama ang mina dito sa amin…sabi nga kung my n violate na rules ang company dito, then show some evidences. ei ang kaso paratang lang sila ng paratang ng walang katotohanan..sa totoo lang wala ka ngang pinag kaiba sa kanila, cuz ur jumping into a conclusion w/o knowing the problem… have you seen the mining site itself? then bakit mo sasabihing kalabisan at sobrang pag-aabuso sa kalikasan.. from the word ”site” it already explains that there is a certain area..so panu un matatawag na abuso.. and beside mining company here in rio tuba already existed for almost 30 years.. i do hope na binasa mu mga comment nila bago ka nagkoment and they already explained this matter earlier… and this petition is about ”no to mining in palawan” mas maganda sana kung ”no to irresponsible mining in palawan” bka suportahan pa nming taga mina.. dahil maging kming mga residente ng rio tuba palawan ay kasama ng sambayanang Pilipino sa pagbabantay ng kalikasan. at kung my nakita kming mali sa ginagawa nila kami ang unang aalma. dahil kami ang unang apektado.. bt we all know how responsible they are… high school palang ako inoorient na kami sa mga bagay na ito.. kaya hindi kami basta nadadala ng mga sabi sabi lng..
and kung gusto mung makakita ng abuso sa kalikasan tutulungan kita.. sa likod lang ng bundok ng mina makikita mu ang kalbong mga bundok ng dahil sa kaingin, kung titingnan mu nga at ikompara mu sa mina mas maganda pang tingnan ang mining site, kasi my design pa..bt ung kinaingin nila wala..and miners plants trees after nilang minahin ang area, bt the kaingiro’s hindi..sila nga ung dapat tawagin na abuso sa kalikasan diba, kasi pinutol na nila,sinunog na at pinabayaan pa..sana sila nmn ung tanongin ninyo ng bakit, at sila ang dapat nung bantayan..
ha! 2gud4u? cgurdo.. ndi k tga d2 noh? ndi mo lam eh… hehehe see? npkrming mga binifits, lebre ung ospital at gamot d2 s min, ktutubo man o residente ng rio tuba lng, lam mo bng mrmi ng ktu2bong plwan ang nktpos ng pgaarala at my mgnda ng trbho? pra sbihin ko sau, my lebring pbhay p nga eh, tuturuan k png kumita ng pera pra don s mga hnd impleydo at wla bhy, lam mo pumunta k n lng kc d2 s min, to see s 2 blieve, pgpunta mo d2, d2 k s bhy nmin tumira ha, ill show u around…
wat ever! bhla kau kong anong gusto icpin…
@2gud4you
papaano ka kakain kun wla ka naman gamit para magtanim,ano gagamitin mo sa pagtanim,kamay?kahoy?syempre gagamit ka ng mechanical tools para magtanim di ba?eh saan galing un stil product of mining, magbasa din kayo ng bible andun naman sabi sa genesis utilize all the resources bigay naman pala ng diyos ang minerals pra sa mahal nyang tao…kasama ka naman don eh…in the first place the first livelihood in the world was only mning and agriculture and miing plays an important role in agriculture because all logistics used for agriculture is a product of mining…try visit manila, kahit sa makati but not looking on the positive view, try to look at the river/channel…is there a mining in manila?i guess not, but what it look likes? does it thesam n mining?which is more worst? im not telling you to change your mind, im giving you point of view to think which is which…
i hope di matuloy ung mining.so sad.:(
Aww you know what’s sadder? Th fact that you only had a glimpse of some negative words and half-truths about mining and then you proceeded into typing your very intelligent comment.
We are Southern City Colleges, a private Non-Sectarian educational institution here in Zamboanga City, Philippines.
We are also supporting the No to Mining in Palawan program. In fact, we were able to gather 363 signatures already from our school and we are still asking others to participate and sign.
Our president was the first to initiate this campaign in our school. And he invited other schools to do the same.
🙂 we’ll update soon 🙂
tnx
that’s good..keep it up
rio tuba is not destroyed if you will visit rio tuba you can see that it has a lot of improvement happened. The company does not destroy the nature that’s why we have a tree planting campaign in the school… in short magandang klaseng pagmimina ang ginagawa dito sa South Palawan. Edi sana buong Pilipinas na ang nasira bakit pala sa ibang part ng Pilipinas may mining din naman ah…
talk to the hand =))
talk to ur ingron nail! hehehe better yet talk to died nails bwwwwhhhaaaah!
actually im not agree with mining in palawan, kung mawawalan man ng trabaho ang karamihan ng tao sa Palawan, it is there way of finding an alternative jobs and not to blame the Government for their status. iniisip nila ang kanilang trabaho n mawawala, hindi nila naiisip na mas malaki ang mawawala sa kanila kung kalikasan nman ang mawawala. Reflect on this, wag sarili ang isipin, hindi lang mining ang kanuhayan na pwede nating gawin, marami dyan, hindi lang kayo naghahanap. 🙂
ano ngang way ng alterntives jobs n cnsbi mo? ung pgwa gawa b ng basket? ung pngi2sda? o ung pg aararu s bukid? or bka nmn my better jobs kng maeeoffer s daang daang umaasa s mining? eh kong kya rin lumgay s lugar nmin? mdli lng nmn mgslita eh…. ang mgnda dyan visit us here… db nga wat u see s wat u believe?
count my signature no to minning in palawan
ibinibida natin ang ganda ng palawan sa buong mundo tapos ccrain din pla ng mga minahan na yan…sa palawan nga lang matatagpuan ang pinakamaraming klase ng hayop sa kagubatan sa palawan nlng din my virgin forest kapag pinagan yan anu pa matitira sa atin
PALAWAN LANG BA TALAGA ANG MAGANDA SA PILIPINAS, PWEDE BA?
just simply STOP
gusto ko pong padalhan kmi dto sa Iloilo ng paper kong saan pwede kmi mka sign. ito and address ko DJSMMNC Jalaud Barotac Nuevo Iloio

@metallugist:
bakit , kung titira kami sa kweba maibabalik mo ba ang na sira nang kalikasan , subukan mo ngang huminga ng cabon dioxide kung kaya mo! , ang lakas nang loob mong sabihin na huwag gumamit nang produkto galing sa mining pero hindi mo iniisip na ang mga materials ay galing sa kalikasan , kung sinasabi mo na ”stand up for what you believe is right” cge huwag kayong kumuha nang anumang gamit na galing sa kalikasan at hindi rin aq at manghihikayat pa aq na huwag gumamit nang gamit galing sa mining , cgurado aq na mas mayaman kami , hindi ba kayo naaawa sa kalikasan? , bakit hindi ba ninyo!!!!! , mo!!!!! , naranasan nyo , mo!!!!! ang TOOTHACHE , maihahalintulad natin ito sa mining , ang cavities ang mga miners at ang ngipin ay ang bundok na sinisira nang walang mga puso na cavity na yan(miners) ang ngipin(bundok) , ang sakit diba? kung hindi ka mag toothbrush o tutulong mabubulok ang ngipin mo!!!!! o masisira ang palawan , kayo ang may PEA BRAIN (AT LEAST A PEA)TO USE AND THINK..
DO YOUR PART. Stand up to what you believe. DO NOT PATRONIZE ANY (any, any, any) PRODUCTS CAME FROM NATURE ..NGIPIN NYO ANG I MINING NYO HUWAG ANG KALIKASAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(tingnan natin kung kaya ninyo)
AS IFFFFFF naman kasi hindi kayo nakikinabang.
@yes.to.responsible.mining:
better practice yourself and teach your “next generation” ”ALSO” how to breath in carbon dioxide im sure hindi kana makakagawa nang nxt generation…
sana matigil na talaga yung mining na yan hindi lang sa palawan kundi sa ibang lugar sa pilipinas
Mining in Rio Tuba and HPP’s operation will soon be over — that is, when all the mountains are gone. Yes it is true that the community benefits from these operations. What they do not realize is it’s long-term effect. Soon, this community will turn into a ghost town. And the foreign investors (Japanese) will simply run away and find another victim. Taganito, Surigao — you are next.
soon? mmmm sndli n lng un db? lets just see? mhirap kc mgslita db?
Just put it this way Miss Laguisma:
If in a day, the nickel processing plant feeds tons and tons of ore, what more if it continues its operation for ten more years? Million or billion tons! Equivalent to a mountain! Can’t you see? Mining operations are changing the landscapes. If you are going to allow exploitation of your natural resources to such an alarming rate, better start worrying now. Nature will take its toll.

YES TO MINING! BUT NOT IN AN ISLAND ECO SYSTEM! kung matalino ka maiintindihan mo yan… pwede sa pinas ang mining pero hindi sa mga palayan,bundok,kagubatan. at iba pa. dun sa hindi biodiversity area! di nag-iisip. sabihin mo sa mga amo mo kung gusto talaga nya makatulong pag na ban ang mining sa pinas isama nya kamo kayong trabahador nila sa ibang bansa o sa mismong bansa nila para magmina.. gusto nila tumulong di ba? lubusin na nila!
paki-alam ko! mga makasarili!
I pity these people who are very misinformed about mining. This website presents half-truths and some inevitable cons of mining, cons which every field of work has. Just like how a vegan keeps from using animal by-products, the anti-mining people should refrain from using mining products. Let’s see where that will get you. As a developing country, we need all these resources to move forward. Large-scale mining practices responsible mining–a thing which isn’t practiced by small-scale mining, which the government must look into. As we were taught in university, “If it can’t be grown, it must be mined.”
To those who say that trees are being cut, the large-scale mining companies are required to replenish these trees that they’ve cut. And to those who insist on thinking about the future generations, how about ourselves? Later on, won’t they also discover all these riches that the Philippines has and think of acquiring these minerals from the underground?
I believe that responsible mining is the solution. Utilizing these resources for the good of the country and its people and not of the foreign companies. This is what needs to be implemented in the mining sector, especially the small-scale mining sector. The DENR and the government must do its job to implement stricter rules regarding mining (where it is feasible to mine, what companies will mine). Whether you like it or not, everyone needs mining. It is a very important economic sector in the whole world.
I blame Gina Lopez for the misinformation and hypocrisy, the Catholic Church for the misplaced authority over most of its Christians who blindly follow them because it is the “moral” thing to do, (“Who’s to say what is “moral,” btw?) and the gullible Filipinos who believes what the media (and the Church) says and who doesn’t, at least once, try to be skeptical.
pLs n0 mining t0 palawan 🙁 sayang p0 ung naturaL resources nateN 🙁 lalO nap0 isa ang paLawan sa mGa m0sT tourist attracti0n here in the philippines 🙁
i will post it in any page in Facebook .. i will try my best to spread it !! i love PHILIPPINES … GOD BLESS US .. specially PALAWAN !!!! i hope to go to Palawan soon !! i wiLL support this petition … actually our school already done signing this petition !!! we will always help Palawan because it’s our mother nature .. i hope this will worth it .. ^_^
para po sa mga anti mining:
pakibasa po maigi ang DAO 96-40
IGNORANCE OF THE LAW EXCUSES NO ONE
no to mining pa ren! boooo
kung yung sinasabi mo eh overall no to mining, e di wag kang gumamit ng mga produktong galing sa mining. HINDI KA MAKAKAPAGREPLY SA AKIN KUNG HINDI DAHIL SA MINING. gusto mo bang tumira sa kuweba? di mo ba alam na ang mga construction materials na ginamit sa paggawa sa bahay mo ay galing sa mining? mga electronic gadgets, poste at kable ng kuryente, mga manufacturing equipments para mabilis makapagproduce ng mga pagkain, damit, kotse, appliances, home entertainement systems, electronic gadgets, construction materials, at kung anu anu pa na na ginagamit mo sa pang araw araw!
PARA PO SA MGA BALAK PUMIRMA SA PETSHITION NILA:
WAG PO KAYONG MAGPAUTO SA MGA GIMIK NG MGA LOPEZ NA YAN. GINAWA LANG NILA ITONG ADVOCACY PROGRAM PARA TAKPAN ANG GINAWA NILANG OIL LEAK SA MAKATI NA NAKAAPEKTO SA MARAMING RESIDENTE AT SA KALIKASAN. IRONIC DI BA?
MAY MGA BATAS PO TAYO TO ADVOCATE AND PRACTICE RESPONSIBLE MINING.

FMRDP and FMRDF Guidelines – June 2006

I agree with Spare Palawan when he/she commented (isogyre, I suggest you read and understand this):
“Ok then, exploit all our natural resources! But the very issue here is mining in Palawan! Protected areas are not supposed to be mined. Self-explanatory, right? You cut down a tree, and replace them with a hundred or so. But a tree doesn’t grow 5 meters overnight.
I believe these are also being discussed in YOUR UNIVERSITY.
I agree when you said that the Philippines is one of the richest in natural resources. But do we, Filipinos, benefit largely from it? The answer is very evident. NO! The foreigners do. They exploit our resources, and we get only a little portion from their profit.
You want responsible mining? Then go to Australia or Canada, NOT IN PALAWAN!”
Why do people react on this issue? It’s actually not an issue of anti-mining per se. It’s about the desire to preserve and protect the island of Palawan against the destructive effects of mining.
Still can’t understand? Just put it this way, if you have a clean, well-organized bedroom, and one time a stranger gets into your room. This stranger turns your room into a party place and leaves all the mess in it. What would your reaction be?
It’s all about doing the right things at the right place.
LIKE!
binasa nyo ba yung Final Mine Rehabilitation And/Or Decommissioning Plan (FMRDP) and Final Mine Rehabilitation And Decommissioning Fund (FMRDF) Guidelines? Related yun sa EPEP/AEPEP which include, but shall not be limited to, exploration,
development, utilization, rehabilitation, regeneration, revegetation and reforestation of
mineralized areas, slope stabilization of mined-out areas, waste dumps (acid mine drainage
control), tailings-covered areas, aquaculture, watershed development and water conservation
and socioeconomic development.
And about sa socioeconomic development, eto yung mga icoconsider:
• Retrenchment Package as provided by law; and
• Labor Support Policies and Programmes. A broad range of placement services designed to improve capacity of workers or “add value” to the human capital to help workers make the transition to alternative jobs or in becoming self-employed:
• Job Search. Provision of information to mine workers on labor markets and job-openings;
• Skills Training and Education Programme. Provision of job-related courses/trainings or courses focused toward a future career which may vary from office skills to artisan multi-skills training, computer technology, mechanical trades and similar vocations;
• Enterprise Awareness. To sensitize and/or motivate those who consider self-employment but have not yet seen such as a viable alternative; and
• Counseling. To help workers cope both socially and financially after the loss of their job and should be focused on money matters and property management.
Another issue that should be considered is the transfer of social assets and services. The mine usually own and operate a range of social assets, including housing and institutions of culture, sports and medical services. Housing includes residential houses, water supply, and electricity and telecommunication network, among others.
so mali po yung sinasabi nyo na pag naubos na ang mga minina ng mga large scale mining companies eh iiwan na lang nila yun na naka tiwangwang. Bago sila mabigyan ng mga sarisaring permits at para makapag operate eh kailangan nilang magsubmit ng mga plano kung paano nila irerehabilitate ang kanilang miminahin kapag ito’y paubos na at para sa community na maapektuhan pag nagsara na ang minahan.
i appreciate the research and info added here sir/ma’am.
Palawan is the last frontier of its bio-diversity and eco-system.Dont let selfish,greedy mining companies ruined its beauty and tranquility.As palawan facing its global fame and running as new wonders of nature.let us support its preservation and protection against MINING.

sana po hindi tayo one-sided pagdating dito. hindi naman po pinapabayaan ng mga taga-rio tuba ang kalikasan. sa totoo nga, yung mga students na enrolled sa private school doon (LSVMS) ay required na magtanim ng sampung pLants every year. and yung RTN Mining po ay merong mga scholars every year. at isa ako sa mga scholar na nakapagtapos ng kolehiyo dahil dito. sana po hindi nyo hinuhusga ng basta-basta ang minahan, sana nagsaliksik muna kau kung merong mga projects na magaganda ang nasabing minahan. hindi sa dahil taga palawan ako e pinapagtanggol ko ang lugar ko, pinapagtanggol ko po ito dahil alam kong hindi nila pinbabayaan ang lugar at ang mga tao sa paligid nito. RESPONSIBLE MINING! kung sakaling sarado pa rin ang mga utak niyo wala na akong magagawa pero sana kung pipirma kayo sa petition na to SANA MAY ALAM KAYO SA LUGAR O SA TINUTUKOY NG PETITION NA ITO. nakakalungkot lang kasing isipin na PINAPAPIRMA NILA ANG MGA TAONG WALANG ALAM SA ISSUE NA ITO.

sana ang unang asikasuhin ni gina lopez ay yung problema nya sa nagleak sa condo sa makati, wag nyang problemahin ang mining sa palawan. NASA MABUTING KAMAY ANG PALAWAN. mind ur own business ika nga. hindi makakapagbigay ng hustisya sa pagkamatay ni gerry ortega ang pagsara ng mga minahan dito sa palawan.
Imagine World Without Mining?
Wag nalang kau gumamit ng Cellphone, Car, Clothes at iba pa…halos lahat ng ginagamit natin ay gawa ng MINING…maghubad lahat ng mga ANTI- MINING!
YAY PALAWAN 😀
no wonder this is a controversial posts because of the reaction and comments… I say mining has both good and bad effects on nature but if will just destroy the beauty of the place then its a no for me.
no to mining in palawan pagpatuloy nyu lng p0eh
thanks bernadette!
We have to take serious action about the minings here in our country. not only in palawan but as well as to other parts of the country like Zambales, Benguet, and more. Hope this little effort would help a lot in this battle.
God gave us filipinos bountiful blessing. He gave us a very2 beautiful country full of natural resources where in we cant find anywherelse in this world.and palawan is very fortunate to have a lot of this blessings. i think this blessing are meant to last forever and not just for 30,40,50,60….years. and i also want my next generation to see how beautiful this country is. but sad to say that there are people who never think of this because they are benifiting for what they call mining. we should realize that time will come na mauubos ang mga minerals na nakukuha sa mga mining sites na yan and ano gagawin ng mga miners? they will look for other places kung saan sila ulit makakakuha ng minerals at makikinabang ang mga tagadoon ng 60 or ilang yaers lang then lilipat na naman pag naubos mga minerals and time will come na mawawalan ng ganda ang pilipinas.ang hirap kase satin hindi tayo nakokontento sa mga meron tayo.bakit di nalang natin pagsumikapan na mapaganda pa ang bansa natin hindi yung hangad tayo ng hangad ng industrialized na bansa. i think its now are time to keep the beauty of what we have.

Tama naman huh ..
no Mining in Palawan …!
dahil pag na cra ang kalikasan
tau rin ang maaapiktuhan dva!
pls. no mining to palawan…
corrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreccccccccccccccccct>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
hanggang saan ka dadalhin ng pagiging “technical mo?
Dun sa mga taong YES to Mining.. eh kung ang kinatitirikan ng bahay nio, ung lugar na u fell very secured ang minahin? ano mafefeel nio??? grabe kaung magsalita.. atleast kming mga NO TO MINING ON PALAWAN,, ang pinangangalagaan nmin e ang kalikasan.. mga sarili nio lng iniisip nio.. I’m not a resident of palawan.. but since I was a child.. I admire palawan for its rich nature and Dapat nga kaung mga taga- Palawan ang unang magsulong ng NO to Mining.. Kming mga taga Manila.. kelangan pa gumastos ng malaki makakita lng ng magandang lugar tulad ng Palawan kc sirang sira n ang kalikasan ng Metro Manila. Sobrang naapreciate nmin ang beauty ng Palawan kc kming mga taga Manila e sabik na sabik sa sariwang hangin.. Sana wag mangyari seneo ang nararamdamin nming mga taga Urban city, pinutol lahat ng puno mkpgtayo lng nga condos & buildings, pero ngaun, stress dahil sa pollution. Nasa huli tlaga ang pagsisisi. Sana nman pangalagaan nio kung ano ang merun seneo ngaun na wala na ang ibang lugar dito sa Pilipinas at sa ibang mundo.
engot ka ba sino magmimina na may bhay sa gitna? simpre i -iinform yun? nagaaral ka? ano grade ka na ba? di ka pala taga palawan e.. subukan mo muna tumira kahit 1 month lang ha, mag tour ka sa rio tuba ikutin mo lahat… then make a comment.. naintindihan mo sinabi ko?
kasi, hindi naman ibig sabihin na no to mining in palawan, na wala na talagang mining. everyday needs natin may kasamang produkto ng mining. ang ibig sabihin lang nito, ay maging responsable naman tayo sa pagmimina. wag naman lahat lahat ng bundok ay pagmiminahan. sana maintindihan ng mga tao yung main point. yun lang po. tnx for reading my comment (^___^)
its not bad to “No to mining in Palawan, But I have to re-phrase your title, “NO TO IRRESPONSIBLE MINING IN PALAWAN”… natural resources are gift to us from God to make us a living and to nurture us. Not all mining destroys the environment they change things.
Sabi niyo po responsible mining ang prinopromote niyo pero…what about 8-10 years from now? Do you think the plants that you planted will grow that fast. What kind of plant is that? With magic bean? No, while those plants are in the stage of growing…flashfloods could take place and those plants, still feeble and vulnerable from strong waves that’ll hit them, will also be uprooted.
For the mining sites that you’ve mined, do you have the newest technology that will restore those areas especially the surroundings? What about the near inhabitants there? Where will you put them? Beside your mining site and factories where chemicals are emitted? Oh mhy! You’re killing people. You always say that there are appropriate mining sites. I’ve read one book saying that as long sa an area has a reasonable deposit of minerals could be mined. Isn’t it basically the reason why you went to Palawan and mined there?
You always say it’s responsible. What about the future of Palawan? You cut trees and scrape mountains. It will take centuries before that could recover from such exploitation. While the healing process takes place, a lot of disaster could happen. That’s so sad, we only look for the short-term happiness that we could get through mining. What about its diverse effect of the environment? You always say that it’s not only mining which contributes to the depreciation of Palawan…That’s precisely the point! It’s not the only reason, why add more? Why burden Palawan? Why burden me? If there’s no really bad effects, why is it that a young person like me is very worried of the things that could happen 10 or 15 years from now. Yes, I might not know everything about mining but that’s it. I don’t know yet everything but it’s already frightening me.
How can you assure the youth that they will still see the beautiful landscapes in Palawan if you’re trying to rape it already? Then, let me ask you, how will you stand calling Palawan the Last Frontier while you’re degrading it, while you are starting to detoriorate it?
Many of you could rebut that nature can restore its health by time. But if there are human interventions, how will they manage to restore their stable condition. It’s the nature, it can live by itself but you should let it do its business. Don’t overestimate nature, she is never that strong enough to bear all the dirts, mine tailings that you throw to her. She gets tired as much as you get tired to your work. Yes, you mine and earn for a living…
We cannot sacrifice Palawan’s biodiversity just because it rich ecosystem is income-generating. We can still prosper without mining IN PALAWAN.
I understand that it’s unpractical to just pull out your investments and efforts that you’ve given already so to give in to our fellowmen. Suppose you remain working there. Afterwards, what happen? If we won’t stop mining in Palawan, it will just repeat the disasters that happened to other places. Please, don’t include Palawan to your business.
It doesn’t mean that there are no bad effects that are sensible right now. I bet, 20 years from now, if minings are not banned especially if it will not be controlled…Palawan will never recover. Palawan is for everyone.
Take into consideration the animals, the marine life that you kill or perhaps you disturb. Will they enjoy using the technology produced by mining industry? Where will you put them? In zoos? Then what? Just let them do that ‘survival of the fittest’ mode? BULLSH*T! Then why did you ever take them away from wilderness? It’s their natural home. You all said that nature is there to support our living. But humans, although they are the most intelligible living beings that ever existed in Earth, are not the only organisms living in this world. For God’s sake, don’t destroy His creation. Don’t you ever offend God for saying that we attain better living by inventing and innovating technology. Before humans decided to utilize the resources given by God to us, we were able to live in the most simple way with happiness and long life!
You may say that it will violate the very potential of persons. That is, to actualize their capacities. We can become better without having to exploit to much of the natural resources. Still, we are greatly drowning in the luxuries presented by this fancy advancements.
There are a lot of reasons for me to support banning mining in Palawan.
You see, the real problem is not the mining that was happening 30 years ago but the rising mining companies applying to mine the minerals in Palawan. We should stop it unless we agree that sooner or later, agriculture and tourism industry that are the predominant activity in Palawan will decline. You always say that anti-mining in Palawan people are all narrow-minded. Gosh, we are not. We understand your side. This is not a debate or anything. This is our future. I know I can’t really convince you to accept my argument but please, don’t ignore the possible damage that mining will incur to our dear Palawan.
Not everyone benefits in incentives offered by mining such as free education for its employees and other medical provision but everyone could profit by taking care of nature. Through that, you can establish many forms of livelihood.
You also mentioned that mining saves our starving and almost dying community. Whoah, you’ve just said we are different from each other but now you’re including everyone by saying ‘our’. Besides, mining is neither the only way to save our community nor is it the most feasible solution.
Wake up! We accommodate partnerships with foreign countries since we don’t have enough funds to utilize our own resources. But it doesn’t mean that we will just be open forever. Hey, don’t suffer from being in excess. Too much is not good. What is more, those foreign countries, even though I’m not discriminating, have vested interests. Do you think they will go up here just to have a fair mutual assistance? They care before anything else to their country. I hope we also do and that we will be united so we could be more concrete and not scattered.
You asked us if there are news reported where miners got into accidents because of mining. The answer is we don’t know. But, is it the reason why we would not stop mining in Palawan? Will we wait for the time were lives would be killed because of it? Gosh, no matter how we defend that they wear the necessary gears to protect themselves from possible accidents, you wouldn’t really know it unless the symptoms appear already. Which is, as far as I know, appearing years and years after they inflicted such diseases or illnesses and wherein, it is difficult to find remedy. Gonna wait for that?
It’s okay to mine…but, please, don’t use your knowledge, your wide scope of knowledge to fool us just because we don’t know everything. Why not try to explain it to us in simpler terms?
We should be united! Why are we called Filipinos then if we don’t live as Filipinos in reality?
Sandali lang, unang-una sinusuportahan ko ang campaign to stop mining in Palawan. Personally, sinusuportahan ko ang pagpapatigil at pagpapalayas ng lahat ng foreign mining companies dito sa Pilipinas at pagsuspindi sa lahat ng foreign mining applications. What is happening in Palawan and all over the Philippines (lalo na sa Benguet na minimina na since 1908) is that a huge area ay ina-aaplyan ng mining applications from large foreign companies. Now sino ba ang pinapatamaan pag sinabing foreign mining companies?
Ang Pilipinas ay may 7.5 billion metric tons ng metallic mineral reserves 5.1 billion metric tons ng non-metallic mineral reserves. Ang halaga lang naman Nito ay $840 hanggang $1 trillion! MAS MALAKI PA SA BUDGET NG PILIPINAS SA ISANG TAON! Isipin nyo na lang kung sakong bigas na yun, or ilang schools na pag-aaralan ng mga bata, o ilang ospital ang pwedeng ipatayo ang gamit nun. Kung mga Pilipino lang ang makikinabang dun, malaki na ang iaambag nun para yumaman ang Pilipinas at the same time ay hindi binibitawan ng agriculture.
Sa matagal na panahon, ang mining policy ng governments ay i-open for control ang mining industry sa mga foreign companies. Basically dependent sa paghuhukay ng ores, pag-eexport nito, habang nagdedepend sa foreign capital, kasanayan at technology.
Syempre ito yung mga companies galing ibang bansa na gusto mag-“invest” sa Pilipinas. Ilan sa kanila ay pumapasok sa isang deal with Filipino businessmen like Manny Pangilinan, pero karamihan sa mga Board of Trustees nito ay foreign owned/foreign funded/foreign controlled.
Eh saan nga ba kasi napupunta yung minimina nila?
Malamang hindi bumabalik sa Pilipinas. Nilalabas nila sa Pilipinas ng sala na yung mineral, pagbalik dito cellphone na, TV, in short finished product na bibilhin. Eh mura lang naman binebenta ang minerals sa labas ng bansa kasi “raw” pa nga ito, at wala namang industriya dito sa Pilipinas na nag-proprocess nito. Tayo naman, bili ng bili kasi WALANG GUMAGAWA NITO SA ATIN.
Kung tutuusin, bilyon-bilyon ang mga kinikita ng mga foreign mining companies na yan. Kaya yung mga school na pinagyayabang nila, yung mga infrastucture projects na sinasabi nila hindi yan utang na loob ng mga mamamayan. Kulang pa yan bilang kapalit dun sa paninira ng kalikasan na ginawa nila.
Ay, meron pa palang kumikita! Yung gobyerno (sa pamamagitan ng lagay) at yung mga soldiers (sa pamamagitan ng pag-protekta sa mining projects)
Ang kasinungalingan ng “There is Life in Mining”
Do you know that one a mining application is granted, the company will mine the land for 25 years, at RENEWABLE pa ito for another 50 years! Imagine! 75 years of mining! Ano na lang ang matitira sa lupa? At remember, LAHAT NG KUMPANYA NG MINA GUGUSTUHING KUMITA NG PINAKAMALAKING PROFIT! Kaya lahat ng bagay na pwedeng ibenta dun kukunin nila. Imagine 75 years of mining?
And pag may application na ang isang lugar, pwedeng gamitin at i-exploit ng mining companies ang LAHAT ng bagay dun sa area na may application. Ibig sabihin if may sapa jan, or river, free to use yan ng company. For 75 years.
Kunwari darating ang kumpanya sa isang lugar, lahat ng ipapatayo nilang bagay ay para makapag-operate sila. Kalsada- para madaanan ng sasakyan. tulay. Planta ng kuryente or dam- para supplyan ng kuryente ang mga makinang nag-huhukay at hindi para bigyan ng kuryente yung community.
Itatap din nila yung primary water source ng community, halimbawa if may ilog, para gawing salaan ng ores. San na sila kukuha ng tubig? There was once an old man from the community who brought a water sample galing sa Abra river, isang river na affected ng Lepanto Mines sa Benguet (Yes, kase connected ang river systems dito). Sabi niya “Tingnan nyo ito, ang itim itim! Sila kaya (taga-Lepanto) ang painumin ko nito”. A group of scientists tested the water and they found high levels of cyanide, and other toxic chemicals sa tubig. Now are they saying sa media? That these foreign companies are responsible miners?
Totoo yang pagtatanim ng puno thing na yan. I went to Itogon, Benguet and I saw the area of “dwarf trees”. Ito yung trees na tinanim ng Benguet Corporation (company na nagmimina sa Itogon for halos 100 years na din, one of first places to be mined by the Americans) 10 yrs ago, at hanggang ngayon ay maliit pa rin sya! Di na lumaki, haha! Asan na yung sinasabi na nirerehabilitate ng companies yung mga area na minina na nila? All’s left was burak, lason, buhangin and tunnels.
Last Pepeng and Ondoy, dito Cordillera yung pinakamaraming mga aksidente ay nangyari sa mga mining areas. Madaling gumuho ang mga bahay kasi butas na yung ilalim. Even the schools ay lumubog na! Sa Mankayan Benguet nga ilang school buildings na yung di ginagamit kasi lumulubog sila.
Me Trabahong di Marangal sa Mining
Yeah, ang promise ng trabaho ay isa sa mga “nakakaakit” na promise ng company. Ilang daan ba naman kasi yun?
Reality check: Magkano ba ang sinasahod ng rank and file na miner? 250/day? 300/day? Wala pa nga sa minimum wage rate. Makakabuhay ka ba ng pamilya jan? Nag-eemploy pa sila ng contractual, so every 6 months pwede na sila mag-fire. At dahil contractual ka, wala kang Philhealth/SSS.
Working conditions: Akala nyo ba ang mga boots, flashlights at helmet ng mga minero ay sagot ng company? Haha Syempre hindi! Eh di dagdag gastos na naman yan. Tapos, ngayon kahit 2 months ka pa lang, pinapagawa na sa iyo yung mga mabibigat na trabaho like pagpasok sa mga pinakamalalalim na tunnels etc. Pag namatay ka, ang sasabihin ng kumpanya ay “over-confidence or lapse of judgement”. Kaya kasalanan mo pa kung bakit ka namatay.
REHABILITATION: Hello, mahal kaya mag-rehabilitate? Imagine after 75 years mong miminahin isasalba mo ulet? Malamang hindi yan gagawin ng companies kasi nga PROFIT ang habol nila at gusto nilang mabawasan ang gagastusin nila as much as possible.
Naiinis lang ako sa argument na wag na kayong magdamit, kung ayaw nyo sa mining. Wag na kayong manuod ng TV, gumamit ng cellphone etc. kasi sa mining naman nanggaling yan.
Unang-una: ang tanga lang nito. Sige nga, may cellphone ka nga, lumubog naman bahay niyo, namatay sa minahan asawa mo, nalason sa tubig ng ilog ang anak mo. Walang nagbebenefit sa mining kundi yung mga may-ari at mga employees nila na naka-upo sa opisinang de-aircon. Kung titimbangin mo talaga, napakamapanira nitong foreign mining companies na ito. Yung Small scale mining naman ay kelangan i-regulate.
Pangalawa: Ang mineral ay galing sa kalikasan, na dapat nga naman pangalagaan. Yung yaman ay galing sa Pilipinas, lupa ng Pinoy. Bakit hindi yung nakararami yung makinabang?
Third: Ang mga policies at batas mismo sa Pilipinas ay pinapatibay ang paninira ng mga foreign companies na ito. Mining Act of 1995, even the DENR ay ganito ang sinasabi. “Lahat ng gusto ng mining companies, gawin natin. I-push natin ito sa congress, gawin nating part ng process sa DENR” lalalala
Sinasaluduhan ko ang mamamayan ng Palawan, pati na ang lahat ng mamamayan mula Luzon hanggang Mindanao nagiging mapagbantay sa kanilang lupa, at kabuhayan. Mabuhay po kayo!
*PS isa akong biology student na nagfre-frequent sa mga mining areas, nakiki-integrate sa mga minero and their families. Ngayon, part ako ng isang anti-mining alliance para pigilan ang pagmimina ng magnetite sa La Union na iikot ng Ilocos hanggang Cagayan.
thanks for sharing this! i learned a lot from your discussion!
super agree madam! sana ma realized yan ng nga pro mining…
@MS ESGUERRA, i think you are very misinformed regarding this issue. MERON po tayong hydrometallurgical processing plant sa palawan at dun pinoprocess ang mga low grade nickel ores galing sa laterite (google it) through high pressure acid leach. kung duda ka at iba pang anti mining dito about sa processing ng nickel ores, igoogle nyo yung slideshare presentation at may makikita kayo dun na mga environmental protection measures at social development programs na tulad ng ginagawa ng mga LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES. Regarding also sa sinasabi nyong renewable up to 50 years na mining permit, IT SHOULD NOT BE EXCEEDING UP TO 25 YEARS KUNG RENEWAL LANG (PLS REFER TO DAO96-40). Kaya 50 yrs lang ang pwedeng itagal ng isang mining company para lang sa mining, NOT 75 YRS! At FYI ang mining period ng isang minahan ay depende sa laki ng reserve at resource na naestimate ayon sa sukat ng ore body pagkatapos ng exploration stage at sa available na mining technology para iextract ang mga ores. At dahil non renewable ang mga metallic at nonmetallic resources at ang mga LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES ay gumagamit ng mga makabagong paraan sa pagextract ng mga ores, mas mapapaikli ang pagstay nila sa area. At ang pinakahuli, yung sa sinasabi mo tungkol sa rehabilitation, bago pa man maaprove yung mga sarisaring mining permits kailangan munang magdeposit para sa MINE REHABILITATION FUND in advance PARA MASIGURADO NG GOBYERNO NA MAGUUNDERGO NG REHABILITATION ANG MGA MINING COMPANIES. Ang total cost ng mine rehab fund ay depende sa nakalagay sa Final Mine Rehabilitation and/or
Decommissioning Plan na kailangan pang aprubahan ng MGB, DENR, LGU, church leaders, head ng mga indigenous people, civic groups, etc. (if you’re not convinced yet, read DAO96-40 and FMRDP GUIDELINES). Kaya kung titignan po natin, ang mga LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES ang pinakamaraming kailangang isubmit na permits saka approval for compliance di lang para sa environment, para din sa social acceptance. Di gaya ng mga small scale mining na sa LGU lang sila kailangan humingi ng permits at approval at ang mga mining methods at equipments nila ay di akma sa standards at ang resulta marami sa kanila ay namamatay pati large scale mining nadadamay na rin dahil sa kanila. Yung sinusuportahan mo na anti mining against magnetite sand sa La Union saka sa Cagayan, MGA ILLEGAL SMALL SCALE MINERS ANG NAGMIMINA SA MGA LUGAR NA YAN DAHIL PINAGBAWAL YAN NG DENR (REFER TO DAO96-40) DUE TO COASTAL EROSION.
For all anti mining, please wag po kayo magspeculate ng walang basis, support your claim first by posting pictures, links, pdf documents, NOT HEARSAYS!
MINING HAS DATED BACK IN ANCIENT TIMES, AT SA TAGAL NUN AT SA DAMI NG NAGWA NITO SA MUNDO NATIN, DI BA TAYO NGAYON ANG NAKIKINABANG. YOU ARE, MA’AM, INDEED, A HYPOCRITE,,,,BAKIT KA GUMAMIT NG COMPUTER PARA MAG POST DITO, GUMAMIT KA NG DAHON AH, IF YOU WANT CHANGE,IF YOU WANT TO STOP MINING, SIMULAN MO SA SARILI, YOU SHOULD STOP USING MINING PRODUCTS TOO, MALAY MO, MINING WILL STOP TOO, WHICH IS VERY IMPOSSIBLE. JUST ACCEPT THE FACT THAT DEVELOPMENT COMES WITH A GREAT CAUSE, WETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT!!!!
ang ganda talaga ng palawan.stop to mining.and save our nature..
plesa support the no mining in palawan.com
wag naman sna matuloy ang pag mimina sa palawan dahil masisira ang magandang yaman nito…
pls sa mga gustong mag mina wag niyo na ituloy kasi kawawa naman ang palawan
I am not from Palawan but I am from the Philippines ( a Filipino) wherein Palawan is located. Hindi ko kailangan maging taga Palawan para maintindihan ang epekto ng mining. At hindi ko rin kailangan na maging taga palawan para makapag bigay ng opinion with regard to the mining in Palawan, sapat na ang pagiging Pinoy ko para mag karoon ng Say. Maraming nakikinabang sa Mining, nagkakaroon ng trabaho ang mga tao. Nakakalungkot lang kung paano rin pinapakita ang pagiging makasarili ng tao, hindi iniisip ang next generation, hindi iniisip ang kalikasan. Ilang pag aaral pa ba ang gusto ninyo ang kailangan para maisampal sa atin ang epekto ng Mining. Pero mukang ganun talaga hanggat nakikinabang ka sa kasalukuyan sa project na to you will definitely embrace it pero sana hindi mahuli ang lahat. NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN. Last frontier na to. Kapag nasira ba to may SUPER LAST FRONTIER pa kaya? ( Just an insigh from an ordinary forestry student from UP Los Banos)

Suportahan po natin ang pagpangalaga ng kalikasan ,,,Mahalin po natin ang biyaya ng Diyos…..
When I heard Ms. Gina Lopez discussed all about mining in our breakfast meeting this morning everything has changed. I felt more proud of our country. Our country is stunning, gorgeous and overly blessed with wonderful natural resources. Then I felt sobrang panghihinayang for all the losses due to mining.
God really loves us so much for giving us not just trees to bear fruits,to give us shelter, to protect us from so many rains; not just rocks to hold the trees, but He also added minerals so that rocks can do its job precisely. Sayang! There could have been no Campostela Valley incident or Sendong….
Thank you Ms. Gina for being an eye opener to us and for your “craziness” in our environment. I will do my own little best way to help you.
start by not patronizing products that have something to do with mining. see how well you can live with that. you should go against illegal mining and not mining in general. why not check the “real’ agenda of abs cbn concerning it’s campaign….. it’s all about MONEY. gina lopez can talk all she wants because she has “never” experienced what we in the lower class have experienced…
Ngayon ko lang ito nabasa pero nung pupunta ako sa site, para makapagsign ng petition bakit wala?
sana hindi matuloy yong balak na pag mining sa palawan
kong mangyari man yan ang lahat na magandang tanawin sa palawan ay masisira
nan jan naman yong magandang tanawin tagoan ng mga
taga ibang bansa……………………………
please respect the all creation of god, hindi ginawa ang kalikasan para sirain natin, sana nman po bigyan nTIN NG PAGPAPAHALAGA ANG LAHAT NG NILALANG AT ANG LAHAT NG ANDIDITO SA MUNDO, PAG MY MGA NASAWI SA MINING ANU? ISISISI NYO PA TO SA GOBYERNO PRA LANG MAY MASISI KAYO, SANA PO BAGO NYO PO GAWIN YAN ISIPIN NYO MUNA KUNG ANU ANG MAGIGING EPEKTO NITO SA ENVIRONMENT NATIN?
ANG MGA TAO DIN ANG DAHILAN KUNG BAKIT MAY “MINING” NA TINATAWAG?????????????
I WILL SUPPORT THE CAMPAIN…..
THEN YOU SHOULDNT NOT HAVE USE COMPUTER TO POST THAT STUPID POST OF YOURS
I will support this! Im a nature lover! When i started reading your blog at nakita ko yung nga pictures para na rin akong nakarating sa nga lugar na un. Thats why i pity my self na hnd ko ma explore ang Pilipinas
napaka ganda ng Pilipinas wag po natin sirain.. Nakaka lungkot yung nangyari sa Compostela valley…baka mangyari din sa Palawan wag naman sana…
In my public speaking class,i chose this topic “stopping illegal mining,saving palawan”…il make a speech..kahit dito man lang makakatulong ako…we’re one!,kahit nakatira tayo sa ibat-ibang bahagi nang bansa…sana nga matuloy…para din to sa next generation natin.
mabuti kayo mga empleyado ng minahan, at nandyan kayo at may kinikita,, ngunit di yan pang habang buhay, sa pag suporta nyo sa pagmimina marami ang maapektuhan,,
Together with our co-legionaries from Manila, we were in Bataraza, Palawan from May 18-28, 2012 for evangelization mission. The place was very serene, clean, beautiful and free from pollution. Our co-legionaries in Rio Tuba invited us to visit their place…it was a long trip from Bataraza Poblacion…green mountains and well paved cemented highway. When we reached Rio Tuba, to our dismay “sobrang alikabok”!!! Yes, the place was very promising for a better life… there were movements of a highly industrialized Rio Tuba because of the nickel mining. We stayed there from 11am – 2pm. While we were on our way back to Bataraza Poblacion we noticed that all of us had sparkles/glitters in our skin… an indication that the air or environment is not good for human to endure…in other words polluted air with nickel is up in Rio Tuba. If the nickel mining will continue to operate in Rio Tuba the destruction in the near future would be horrible both for mother nature and the people… Let us not wait for people to experience skin cancer and other catastrophic illnesses that may affect them. The destruction of Rio Tuba is on its way if we dont stop the nickel mining!!! Develop instead Rio Tuba as a fishing and trading port in southern Palawan. God bless Rio Tuba, Bataraza!!!
agree! glad you saw the real deal
Theological Assertion:
The original plan of God on His creation is for man to worship Him. In the account of creation in the book of Genesis, before He created man, He created first all the needs of man: light and darkness on day one, atmosphere on day two, vegetation on day three, solar system for having literal period of time on day four, birds and fish on day five, animals on day six and lastly man (Gen.1:1-31;2:1). The purpose of creation is to sustain the needs of man (Gen.2:8-9). God gave man a volitional kind of mind for him to have a fellowship with God with his freewill (Gen.1:27). God also created man as a rational being (2:20).God also entrust His creation to man.
Because man is a volitional being therefore he can choose right or wrong, man has the ability to disobey God’s law (Gen.3). And the punishment of God for that is to curse the land for him to work hard for it (3:17-19). Because of the grievousness, unsatisfactory and selfishness of man he always disobey God (3:1-13) and the result of this is always a punishment (3:14-19).
Conclusion:
It is not on what are we going to choose, weather we choose yes or no to mining it depends on us, God gave us the freedom to choose at the very beginning of His creation but freedom to choose comes greater consequences. Maybe Mining is very good in sustaining jobs that will generates financial supports specially to the countries deposits in world bank that will contribute a lot specially in the economics status of the countries, but the question is, after this what is next? After we fulfill our grievous desires what’s the real effects in the near future? Do not distort the original plan of God
NO TO MINING IN PALAWAN
What is mining? Is it good for environment or not? It helps people or not? This is the first question I’ve decided discusses.
If you look at on dictionary mining means “is a skill that allows players to extract ores, gems, rune essence and other resources from rocks in mines throughout runescape. It only means that there’s no mining at all without the concern of human. The origin of mining began when human discovered some essential nature that can help out human’s need. The problem is that some people benefits but other people suffered.
Now Palawan was subject for mining, pro-mining considered mining as way of discovering Palawan and of course it would help the mining industry where most things we use and even things that surround us are product of mining, but millions of Pilipino participated and supported “no to mining in Palawan” why? Because they love nature and they were also concerned about the dagger of it that soon people will suffer. Mining processes creates a potential negative impact on the environment both during the mining operations and for years after the mine is closed. This impact has led to most of the world’s nations adopting regulations to moderate the negative effects of mining operations. Safety has long been a concern as well, though modern practices have improved safety in mines significantly. Let’s try to open an issue about this question, what did the Bible says regarding this topic? If we look back to the account of creation the Bible clearly says that God was pleased when he saw what he created, does it mean that God is angry when human destroying nature? As a Nature Lover I absolutely stand to no mining in Palawan even in some other places that damages the beauty of nature.
The LORD God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.(Gen.2:15). Very clear, God commanded man to keep and take care of what he created that pleased his eye. Take care not devastate or destroy, nature is our life and from nature there is life too. Now don’t we need mining anymore? Of course not were now living in a modern time which most of our needs are from the product of mining. I want to end it up here with my short conclusion; God gave us will and ability to think and decide to choose what is right and wrong, which is appropriate and which is not, which is valuable and which worthless. Lets help nature let’s consider mining too.
@MS ESGUERRA
here is the slideshare link about the hydrometallurgical processing plant in palawan i’m discussing before. ironically it is attached to the no2mininginpalawan website.
http://www.slideshare.net/no2mininginpalawan/coral-bay-update-on-the-palawan-hpal-project
nasa middle hanggang last part ng presentation nyo makikita ang mga environmental protection measures, rehabilitation plans, at social development programs na tulad ng ginagawa ng mga LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES.
@ALL ANTI MINING
yung mga advocate groups na anti mining kaya ba nilang tapatan ang ginagawa ng LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES na social development programs gaya ng pagpapatayo ng TULAY, KALSADA, HOSPITAL, SCHOOLS, PABAHAY, RECREATIONAL AREAS, LIVELIHOOD PROGRAMS SA MGA COMMUNITIES KAPAG NAGAWA NILANG PAALISIN ANG MGA LARGE SCALE MINING COMPANIES?
Just want to share something…
Job 28:1-11
28:1 “Surely there is a mine for silver, and a place for gold that they refine. Iron is taken out of the earth, and copper is smelted from the ore. Man puts an end to darkness and searches out to the farthest limit the ore in gloom and deep darkness. He opens shafts in a valley away from where anyone lives; they are forgotten by travelers; they hang in the air, far away from mankind; they swing to and fro. As for the earth, out of it comes bread, but underneath it is turned up as by fire. Its stones are the place of sapphires, and it has dust of gold. “That path no bird of prey knows, and the falcon’s eye has not seen it. The proud beasts have not trodden it; the lion has not passed over it. “Man puts his hand to the flinty rock and overturns mountains by the roots. He cuts out channels in the rocks, and his eye sees every precious thing. He dams up the streams so that they do not trickle, and the thing that is hidden he brings out to light.
Deuteronomy 8:7-9
For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing out in the valleys and hills, a land of wheat and barley, of vines and fig trees and pomegranates, a land of olive trees and honey, a land in which you will eat bread without scarcity, in which you will lack nothing, a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills you can dig copper.
