No To Mining in Sibuyan Island, Philippines
Sign Now
We strongly ask the government through the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to cancel all mining permits and applications in Sibuyan Islanda natural wealth of the Philippines. We also remind President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo of her pronouncements during her visit last year to San Fernando that 'Sibuyan has a high economic growth potential, notably as a tourist destination.' Apparently, not mining. In addition, in her 2006 State of the Nation Address, she stated publicly that 'Romblon With tourism can become rich.' Again, not through mining.
Sibuyan Island is where the world's densest forest flourishes, the Philippine's cleanest inland body of water flows (Cantingas River), and the majestic Mt. Guiting-giuting dwells. The island is a critical plant site, center of endemism and biodiversity. One of the last frontiers of the Philippines.
To the Local Government Officials, don't be traitors! You have used the anti-mining advocacy in your campaigns last election and you succeeded.

Mining will only undermine what we should value - our natural resources and our children's future.
