How Can They Hear Us?

  

                A simple question plays on my mind. “How can they afford to treat Ternateņos as if they don’t exist?” A question that hurts me much knowing that even the person whom I thought will hear first the voices of the small ones will be the one who will tell the whole nation that the groups of people who are opposing the sanitary landfill to be built in Ternate, are just lacking the information and just pretending to have competent knowledge on the sanitary landfill project.

 

                From what I remembered, the thing that happened in International Institute for Rural Reconstruction in Barangay Biga, Silang town was held in order for the Governor to hear the side of each group. Now, for those people who still don’t know what really happened in Silang, here’s the story.

 

                The program should have started eight o’clock in the morning, but as the usual thing, it started late. It was almost 10 am when Ms. Gloria Diaz spoke in front of the people saying what was her opinion as an opposing to the landfill plan.

 

The program eventually started. The said event was started with a prayer, national anthem and an opening speech from Governor Ayong Maliksi. From his speech, he stated that Cavite is really having now problems regarding wastes. He keeps on reminding everyone that because of his care to the environment, when he was once the mayor of Imus, he was the one who started the segregation project but unfortunately, he said that only 50% of the residents from Imus participated. He also reminded everyone that almost all the mayors of Cavite are just hiding the collected wastes away from the eyes of the people for them to believe that every town has no big problem with regards to wastes. He also said that the event was for the two groups to hear themselves out. Now, hearing it from our good Governor, we, the opposing group, prepared ourselves, for the open forum. But the open forum did not follow immediately. From their program, they have a lot of speakers first before having the open forum.

 

Lunchtime came, and as we grouped ourselves, we thought of asking the emcee directly that we wanted to proceed to the open forum as soon as the program resumes. The program resumed at 1pm and we already had the open forum. There were lots of questions raised by the concern citizens not only of Ternate but also of the whole province of Cavite. The set-up went like this, each person who’d asked question was given only a small period of time asking while the person addressed by the question was given lots of time. From there, it was obviously seen that the forum was not in favor of us.

 

They actually cut the microphone for us not to follow up questions. To make the long story of the open forum short, we were very disappointed of what had happened. In the middle of the forum, two mayors stood up and shared their opinion. It was really disappointing because even them, they treated the Ternate people as if we don’t know anything. They are actually not included in the forum but what can we do? Nothing more than to respect, but I don’t think that they respected us, even before the start of the program.

 

Too sad that most of the elected officials are thought to have sympathy on the people who trusted them. And the forum was totally cut at 2:20 in the afternoon when it should have end at 3 pm according to the program sheet itself.

 

                Now, can someone tell me, how can we, especially the people of Ternate, who are treated as nobody, be heard by the whole nation?

 

                We, as no one for some people out there, think has a bigger hearts and brighter minds that makes us SOMEBODY to our beloved mother earth and ever-loving God the Father.

Ang nakaraan na PUBLIC HEARING (Oktubre 17, 2006)  sa Silang Cavite ay HINDI naging pabor sa proponent.
 
Nagpakalat ng Newsletter ang CCTofUSA at mga kasamahan sa Silang, Cavite, Pilipinas na naging daan at magsilbi upang mamulat ang karamihan sa katotohanan kung ano ang magiging epekto at pinsala ng Landfill.
 
Ang newsletter ng CCTofUSA ay payo ng ating magiting at minamahal na zealous Ternatenya (hindi ko na muna sasabihin ang pangalan, pero sya ay isang tunay na Ternatenya sa puso at sa gawa).
 
Maging ang ating ipinagmamalaki at kaunaunahang naging Miss Universe Gloria Diaz ay dumalo at nagpakilalang siya ay hindi sang-ayon sa LANDFILL, kaagapay nya at katulong ang ating mga nagmamalasakit na kasamahan, at sila ay buong tikas na humarap sa lahat upang buong puso nila maisiwalat ang kanilang pagtutol sa basura na itatapon sa ating mahal na bayan ng Ternate.
 
Ang isa sa ating ipinagmamalaki at nagmamalasakit na si Engineer Celso Catipon ay hindi pinaligtas ang pagkakataon na makiisa sa magandang layunin ng ating samahan, taos puso sya ay tumulong at naghandog tulad ng pagkain at sasakyan sa mga nakiisang matiaga at mapagmahal sa kapwa at kalikasan. Sa mga hindi nakakaalam si Engineer Celso Catipon bukod sa pangsariling kadahilanan ay umuwi ng Ternate ay kusang loob na tumulong ng malaman nya na meron palang balak na maglalagay ng Landfill sa ating bayan.
 
Marami tayong lihim na kapanalig at kaisa,kabisig, kumpanyero, kumpanyera na lihim na tumutulong dito sa ating ipinaglalaban na karapatan na ang kalikasan na nasa proteksyon ng batas ng Pilipinas ay hindi basta na lang me lalapastangan.
Sila, Kayo at Tayo ay magkahalintulad, magkahalimbawa at magkasingdadamdamin sa pag-iisip at sa paggawa na ang pagdamay sa kapwa na ang kapakanan ng ating mga mahal na kababayan at kalikasan ay mabigyan ng ampat na laya.
Sila ay tumulong sa pamamagitan ng mga sasakyan at pagkain.
 
Bago magtapos ang buwan ng Oktubre ay meron na naman tayong isang kasamahan na uuwi at magsasakripisyo at tutulong upang ang plano ng environsave ay mahadlangan.
 
Sana ay maramdaman ni Mr Lambert Lee na ang samahan ng CCTofUSA at ibat-ibang sector at lalo na ang mga tapat natin taga suporta ay hindi titigil hanggat ang plano nila na gawing tambakan ang mahal nating bayan ng Ternate ay mahadlangan.
 
Mula sa isang komento:
Sana maramdaman at matanto ni Mr. Lee na sya ay nailigaw sa maling akala na ang mga taga Ternate ay Bobo at Tanga.
Sana matanto ni Mr. Lee na ang bayan ng Ternate ay punong puno ng mga taong marunong magbigay ng pagpapahalaga sa kapwa at kalikasan. Kung noon man ay nakalusot ang katampalasan ng mga namumuno sa bayan ng Ternate, ito na ang panahon upang malaman nya na ang mga taga Ternate ay punong puno ang kapaligiran ng mga nilalang na me mga sariling prinsipyo...
 
 
 
 
 

Ternate Landfill Public Hearing in Silang CAVITE

 

Public Hearing would be October 17, 2006

 

Cancelled due to Storm>>>Public Hearing Friday September 29, 2006: in Silang Cavite,

Join the final presentation by environsave on October 17, 2006 set by them  at Silang Cavite 8:00 AM at the International Institute for Rural Reconstruction.

Question by so many people, Ternateņos and non-Ternateņos.

1)      Why the provincial governor asked for the transfer or moving the Ternate landfill public hearing to Silang CAVITE?

2)      Why the majority of Councilors cannot pass a resolution to stop the landfill?

3)      Why the mayor sign and certified the landfill?

4)      Why the provincial and municipal government agrees to ruin and damage the natural resources and jeopardize the living and health of the people and the wildlife?

5)      Why the local official is willing to sell the soul of the people of our Beloved Town and neighboring community?

6)      Why the public is not aware and fully notified or informed about this landfill plan.

7)      Why the quarry in which the rock and soil are fully damage and now they want to convert it to a landfill.

8)      Why Mr. Lambert Lee of Environsave Inc. in which he is well known philanthropist is letting him self to be used to ruin the natural resources and to put the life of the quiet living things and non living things?

9)      Mr. Lambert Lee already done a humongous damage (Quarry) to our mountain. Isn’t what he done to our beautiful mountain is good enough and he should stop for the sake of the people of CAVITE?

10)  Why people say they don’t know anything about the past public hearing? The people said they don’t know about it!

 

The people are all confused about the statement by the local official that there is a sign document that the people agreed with the landfill plan.

There are so many question and confusion want to be brought up but it will not fit the whole page of this website.
