Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, July 16) A group decried what it says was the lack of consultations with residents affected by the planned 174-hectare reclamation project in Dumaguete City.
Atty. Golda Benjamin, member of #NoTo174Reclamation, told CNN Philippines that Dumaguete Mayor Felipe Antonio Remollo failed to talk to the people despite the potential environmental damage the project will cause, like the burying of three marine protected areas where thousands of residents source their livelihood.
Quarrying needed to build the island will potentially flatten mountains and dredging from the sea will also bury corals, she added.
