  • Report on Gantong/Brooke's Point
    1 “THE Mt. GANTONG/BROOKE’S POINT 2010 GEO-TAGGED REPORT” MINING THREATHS TO WATERSHEDS, CORE ZONES AND TO THE ANCESTRAL DOMAIN OF ISOLATED INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES, PALAWAN ISLAND (THE PHILIPPINES) A joint field assessment of ALDAW (Ancestral Land/Domain Watch) and The Centre for Biocultural Diversity (CBCD) of the University of Kent (UK) Between the 12th and 19th of July 2009, a joined ALDAW/CBCD Mission1 traveled to Brooke’s Point Municipality (Palawan) to carry out field reconnaissance and audio-visual documentation of the mountainous areas laying on the eastern side of the Gantong range, where the source of the Linau river (property of barangay Ipilan) is found. The province of Palawan is part of the “Man and Biosphere Reserve” program of UNESCO and hosts 49 animals and 56 botanical species found in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species. The Gantong range is endowed with the same richness of biological diversity and endemism found in the recently proclaimed Mt. Mantalingahan Protected Area, the best recognized biodiversity hot spot in southern Palawan. A study commissioned by Conservation International-Philippines reveals that several endangered species listed by IUCN (The World Conservation Union) are found around the Mantalingahan Range. 1 The mission was composed by Dr. Dario Novellino PhD. (Anthropologist of the CBCD) and Visiting Research Associate of the Institute of Philippine Culture (IPC) of the Ateneo de Manila University, Mr. Julio Cusurichi Palacios (an indigenous advocate from Peru, and winner of the 2007 Goldman Prize), Mr. Artiso Mandawa (member of the National Anti-Poverty Commission and national campaign coordinator of ALDAW), Mr.

  • 1.1 Brief History of the Municipality Bataraza Is Named After a Locally
    Municipal Comprehensive Land Use Plan, 2009 – 2018 Municipality of Bataraza, Palawan I. GENERAL INFORMATION 1.1 Brief History of the Municipality Bataraza is named after a locally influential Muslim Chieftain, Datu Bataraza Narrazid who was the father of the town's first mayor, Datu Sapiodin Narrazid. Datu Sapiodin Narrazid was a former mayor of the municipality of Brooke’s Point, the mother municipality of Bataraza. The municipality of Bataraza was created on June 18, 1961 by virtue of Republic Act 3425. However, it officially functioned as an independent municipality on January 1, 1964 and established its seat of municipal government in barangay Tarusan by virtue of a municipal resolution with concurrence from the provincial board. During the term of Mayor Hadjes P. Asgali in 1971, the seat of municipal government was transferred to barangay Marangas which was the official municipal site as stipulated in RA 3425. During that period, big haciendas started various agricultural activities and brought in farm laborers recruited from other parts of the country. Modern agricultural technologies were introduced and the government provided irrigation and post harvest facilities. This increased rice production areas and yield of the municipality which eventually make Bataraza as one of the rice granaries of Southern Palawan. Likewise, the municipality is endowed with large mineral deposits. Rio Tuba Nickel Mining Corporation (RTNMC) is one of the pioneer mining companies that explore and utilize the mineral deposits of the municipality. 1.2 Human Resource 1.2.1 Population Distibution From 2000 to 2007 the population of Bataraza rose from 41,230 to 53,430, indicating a growth rate of 3.69 percent.

  • Some Data on the Distribution, Conservation Status and Protection of Freshwater Turtles in the Palawan Island Group, Philippines
    SOME DATA ON THE DISTRIBUTION, CONSERVATION STATUS AND PROTECTION OF FRESHWATER TURTLES IN THE PALAWAN ISLAND GROUP, PHILIPPINES Pierre Fidenci1 and Reymar Castillo2 1Endangered Species International, 79 Brady Street, San Francisco, CA 94108, USA 2Research Coordinator, Biodiversity Center for Research and Conservation, Palawan State University, Puerto Princesa City, Philippines 5300; Project Manager, Philippine Forest Turtle Project, Endangered Species International – Palawan State University Introduction The Palawan Island Group is located between Mindoro Island and North Borneo, approximately 600km south-west of Manila, Philippines. Islands included in this group are Palawan (the largest island), Busuanga, Culion, Lampacan, Cuyo, Dumaran, Cagayancillo (also called Cagayanes) and Balabac. Palawan is the fifth largest island in the Philippine archipelago with an area of more than 11,000 square km. The biological importance of Palawan is widely recognized both nationally and internationally. It has even been designated as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO since 1990. The region includes several existing Proclaimed Conservation Areas such as Coron Islands (7,580 hectares), El Nido Marine Reserve (89,140 hectares), Malampaya Sound (90,000 hectares) and Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park. Palawan has also been declared a mangrove reserve. Palawan has about 422 terrestrial and known marine vertebrate species. This number accounts for about 39% of all the vertebrate species found in the Philippines. Many of the species are endemic to Palawan and have restricted ranges confined to a small area (PCSDS, 2005). The Philippine forest turtle (Siebenrockiella (= Panayenemys) leytensis) (Fig. 1) is one of the most endangered turtle species in the world and the most endangered turtle of the Philippines (Conservation International, 2003; IUCN, 2009).

    “THE INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND SMALL FISHERS OF SOUTHERN PALAWAN: A CASE OF LOCAL COMMUNITIES’ EXCLUSION FROM THE MANAGEMENT AND UTILIZATION OF MUNICIPAL FISHERIES AND AQUATIC RESOURCES” A Case Study by: The Palawan NGO Network, Inc. Atty. Jose Florante M. Pamfilo Lead Researcher Victor B. Colili Elizabeth A. Maclang Assistant Researchers July 31, 2006 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For over two decades, members of the indigenous Pala’wan and Molbog tribes, as well as long-time resident small fishers, in the areas surrounding Bugsuk Island in the Municipality of Balabac in Southern Palawan have been treated as virtual interlopers in their own land. Barred from their traditional fishing grounds by a multinational pearl farm corporation, they have had to endure harassment and employ clandestine methods to be able to fish and manage to survive. To make matters worse, in early 2005, the municipal government enacted Municipal Ordinance No. 01-2005 or the Protected Balabac Marine Eco-Region Ordinance. This ordinance constituted the entire municipal waters of Balabac as a protected marine eco-region, and designated the pearl farm concession area as a “core or strict protection zone.” In the so-called “core or strict protection zone,” all forms of gathering of aquatic resources – with the exception of those resulting from authorized pearl culture or aquaculture – are prohibited. The case study examines the extent of access to information and opportunities for participation extended to the public (particularly the affected indigenous peoples and small fishers) in the enactment of the ordinance. The study follows The Access Initiative methodology and evaluates access to information and opportunities for participation on the basis of law, effort and effectiveness indicators.

  • Palm Plantations Threaten Biodiversity in Palawan by RHAYDZ B
    Palm plantations threaten biodiversity in Palawan By RHAYDZ B. BARCIA, TMT on February 19, 2017 Regions, Today's Headline Photos AMIRUL MARINSE, 68-year old Pala’uan tribe member in Araray, Espanola, Palawan, points to the palm oil plantation that threatens the coconut industry and biodiversity of the country’s last frontier. PHOTO BY RHAYDZ B. BARCIA PUERTO PRINCESA, Palawan: A long stretch of land, as far as the eye can see, on the southern tip of Palawan, is now the preserve of massive palm plantations. This is not a scene straight out of a disturbing film but it is a reality that reflects the growing threat to the country’s last frontier, declared a Unesco Man and Biosphere Reserve in the 1990s. But the moderate climate and rich soil of Palawan ironically made it the ideal hub for growing palm trees to the detriment of local coconut farmers. Ten years ago, Amirul Marinse, 68-year-old member of the Pala’uan tribe and former coconut farmer in Iraray Sofronio, Espanola, Palawan rented out his seven hectares of land to the Agumil Company for P1,000 per hectare annually with the agreement that aside from the rent, after three years, there would be profit-sharing from the palm oil harvest on the land. But to this day, Marinse told The Manila Times, there has been no such profit-sharing and he found it frustrating that the contract is for 30 years. He said he wishes to be to freed from his contract with Agumil but knows it is not possible.
