(File photo by HENZBERG AUSTRIA / Senate Public Information and Relations Bureau) MANILA, Philippines – The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) has urged local government units (LGUs) to pass ordinances that would direct barangays (villages) in implementing waste segregation. DENR Undersecretary Benny Antiporda, of the Solid Waste Management and LGUs Concerns, said in a statement on Tuesday that cities and municipalities in the country have ordinances on waste segregation that should be implemented at the very source — barangay level — for “effective collection and disposal of solid waste.” “Propose to your local council to create an ordinance that will act on those who do not practice segregation in their barangays,” Antiporda said. The DENR official also echoed the call for efficient and effective handling of solid waste. “It is already stated in RA [Republic Act] 9003 [Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000], but let us strengthen it with the help of your council,” he added. He also recommended having inter-barangay “environmental marshals” in every barangay within a city/municipality to monitor solid waste management practices in neighboring barangays. Meanwhile, according to the data of the Provincial Government – Environment and Natural Resources Office of Cavite, 58.78 percent of the waste generated in the province is biodegradable, while 28.19 percent are residual wastes. Antiporda encouraged Cavite LGU to allocate funds for the collection of biodegradable and residual wastes.

  • Cruising Guide to the Philippines
    Cruising Guide to the Philippines For Yachtsmen By Conant M. Webb Draft of 06/16/09 Webb - Cruising Guide to the Phillippines Page 2 INTRODUCTION The Philippines is the second largest archipelago in the world after Indonesia, with around 7,000 islands. Relatively few yachts cruise here, but there seem to be more every year. In most areas it is still rare to run across another yacht. There are pristine coral reefs, turquoise bays and snug anchorages, as well as more metropolitan delights. The Filipino people are very friendly and sometimes embarrassingly hospitable. Their culture is a unique mixture of indigenous, Spanish, Asian and American. Philippine charts are inexpensive and reasonably good. English is widely (although not universally) spoken. The cost of living is very reasonable. This book is intended to meet the particular needs of the cruising yachtsman with a boat in the 10-20 meter range. It supplements (but is not intended to replace) conventional navigational materials, a discussion of which can be found below on page 16. I have tried to make this book accurate, but responsibility for the safety of your vessel and its crew must remain yours alone. CONVENTIONS IN THIS BOOK Coordinates are given for various features to help you find them on a chart, not for uncritical use with GPS. In most cases the position is approximate, and is only given to the nearest whole minute. Where coordinates are expressed more exactly, in decimal minutes or minutes and seconds, the relevant chart is mentioned or WGS 84 is the datum used. See the References section (page 157) for specific details of the chart edition used.
