Marinduquenos support Bicolanos vs mining

Suportado ng mga taga-Marinduque ang paglaban ng mga Bicolano laban sa muling pagbubukas ng La Fayette sa Bicol. Narito ang pahayag ng Marinduque Council for Environmental Concerns:

BOAC, MARINDUQUE – The Marinduque Council for Environmental Concerns (MACEC), joins the people of Albay and Sorsogon and other environmental groups in condemning in the highest degree the recent decision of DENR to allow the re-opening of La Fayette Mining despite the damages it wrought to the rich fishing ground of the area and its continuous threat to the people and the environment.

The series of mining disasters (heavy metal contamination in Calancan Bay since 1975, collapse of Maguilaguila Siltation Dam in 1993, and the infamous Boac River Environmental Disaster of 1996) which we experienced in Marinduque due to the irresponsible operation of Placer Dome, Inc (now Barrick, Inc.) and Marcopper Mining Corporation and the inefficiency of the government’s environment agencies are coming back to us as nightmares when we heard of the cyanide spill in Rapu-rapu.

Here’s something to remind us of the endless cover-up and continuing conspiracy against the awful truth. (more…)

June 28

Superman Returns will be shown in the US and other countries, including the Philippines, on June 28, 2006. Fans of the new Captain Barbell series that looks like a local version of Superman must be waiting for this day when they could see the original man of steel.

But there’s another big thing we should watch out for on June 28, 2006. Garett Rogers of ZDNet wrote that Google’s GBuy “will be hitting the [N]et on June 28th.” Finally, the most-awaited launch of GBuy is coming. Let’s hope Google would allow us to use their new service, so we would no longer need to beg for a Paypal Philippines service.

Tagumpay ng Buhay

Masaya ako na mabubuwag na ang parusang kamatayan. Mailalagay na sa tama ang siyang tunay na layunin ng pagkakaroon ng mga bilangguan: ang pagpaparusa’t pagpapanibago sa mga nagkasala kasabay ng pagsulong ng buhay ng mga biktimang nagkamit ng katarungan.

Pero mas masaya si Pangulong Arroyo. Biro mo, maipagyayabang niya sa Vatican sa susunod na mga araw na nagawa niyang buwagin ang bitay sa Pilipinas. Maiboboladas niyang pro-life siyang talaga. At sigurado akong sasabihin niya sa kanyang pagbabalik na di lang siya inilagay ng Diyos sa kinalalagyan niya ngayon, binasbasan din siya ng bagong Santo Papa.

Wish ko lang, gayong naipapahinto niya ang bitay, maipahinto rin niya ang malawakang pagpatay sa mga peryodista at aktibista.

Kung hindi, lalo tayong bubulusok sa kabalintunaan ng pagbabago ng batas upang matanggal ang parusang kamatayan ngunit pagpapanatili sa pagparusa ng kamatayan sa mga naghahangad ng pagbabago sa ilalim ng batas.
