This 2009 Philippine Index of Sports Tourism Sites and Destination will not materialize without the many articles, pictures, images, notes and insights of people and institutions used or borrowed for the purpose of selflessly projecting the Philippines to the world as a one-stop-action destination where sports from A to Z (Angling to Zip Lines) can be learned, experienced and played anywhere across the Philippines. We deeply express our gratitude to all those whose work of art, books, publications and literature have been used to make this initial databank effort worthy of guiding those that seek information for the advancement of Philippine tourism and of our country’s tourism (business) industry.

  • 2017 Has Been a Year of Opportunities and Challenges for Our Environment Sector Particularly the Minerals Industry
    MANDATE The Mines and Geosciences Bureau is the Primary government agency under Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) responsible for the conservation, management, development and proper use of the country‟s mineral resources including those in reservations and lands of public domain. In pursuing the mandate, it envisions a mining and minerals industry that is not only prosperous but also socially, economically and environmentally sustainable, with broad community and political support while positively and progressively assisting in the government‟s program on revitalizing the minerals industry and contribution to the general economic well-being of the nation. MISSION The MGB, as steward of the country's mineral resources, is committed to the promotion of sustainable mineral resources development, aware of its contribution to national economic growth and countryside community development. It fully recognizes that the development of a responsive policy framework in partnership with stakeholders to govern mineral exploration, mining and investment decisions and an effective institutional structure, are fundamental requisites for the sustainable utilization of the country's mineral resources. It is adherent to the promotion of geological studies as an integral element of socio-economic development, environmental protection and human safety. Yet, it is sensitive to the known environmental impacts of mining and the need for restoration and rehabilitation of mining affected areas and the development and adoption of environmental and geo-scientific technologies. VISION MGB envisions a minerals industry that is not only prosperous but also socially, economically and environmentally sustainable, with broad community and political support while positively and progressively assisting in government‟s program on poverty alleviation and contributing to the general economic well- being of the nation.
