MAYUGA APRIL 19, 2021 3 MINUTE READ WITH the lifting of the moratorium on new mining projects following the signing of EO 130 by President Duterte, the Mines and Geosciences Bureau (MGB) is looking at granting new mining contracts that could generate additional revenues and boost the economy within the next five years. Mines and Geosciences Bureau Director Wilfredo G. Moncano said at least 100 new mining projects currently in the pipeline can generate additional revenue of P20 billion in the form of excise tax and another P1 billion in annual revenue in the form of royalty tax. These new mining projects can generate at least 42,000 new jobs in the mining sector which currently employs around 230,000 persons. While the new mining projects can generate 42,000 new jobs, the employment opportunity from the multiplier effect of 4 persons for every 1 person benefiting direct employment will give mining hosts the much-needed economic boost, officials noted. “In the memo that we submitted to the office of the President, with the lifting of Section 4 of E.O. 79, we estimate additional taxes of P20 billion and royalty of about P1 billion. Plus there will be about an additional P58 billion worth of export because most of the minerals are exported. We estimate 42,000 new employment,” Moncano said in a radio interview. Under the Phase 1 Priority Mining Projects, there are at least 35 mining projects that are a step or two steps away from gaining their Mineral Production Sharing Agreement (MPSA), he added.

Cimatu ang publiko na iwasan ang paggamit ng mga produktong pambahay na naglalaman ng hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) na nagpapabilis sa pagdami ng greenhouse gas at nagdudulot ng matinding kontribusyon sa climate change. Ayon sa DENR, ang HFCs ay ginagamit na propellant sa mga hair spray, deodorant, insecticide at disinfectant na isa sa pinakatinatangkilik na produkto sa pamilihan dahil sa COVID-19 pandemic. “By choosing not to buy products containing HFCs, consumers will be reducing GHG levels and sending a message to companies not to continue to use the propellant in their products,” sabi ni Cimatu. Ginawa ng environment chief ang pahayag bilang pagsuporta sa “awareness-raising efforts” ng Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Environmental Management Bureau sa pamamagitan ng Philippine Ozone Desk.
