MTL SAYS NO 2 MINING IN PALAWAN!

Manual to Lyf is always vocal in voicing concerns about our natural resources that for years are being exploited by companies who are only after the profit. And for what we have left we should keep them safe from exploiters. Palawan, known as the last frontier of the Philippines, holds a lot of natural flora and fauna that cannot be found anywhere in the country. And we also campaigned for the Puerto Princessa Underground River to be the 7 new natural wonders of the world. But at Brooke's Point, there is a threat to do open-mining in this area. Many of the original residents are worried and oppose this action of MarcoAsia, the big mining firm involved in the open mine project allegedly brought thirty “fake” indigenous people. These so-called tribal chieftains showed support on MacroAsia despite opposite views from the majority of indigenous people from Brooke’s Point.
