Please check on this INEXCUSABLE ILLEGAL QUARRYING BY THE BEACH OF NEW WASHINGTON, AKLAN
This is an obvious corruption right in front of your backyard.
Why the community is so quiet on this very obvious destruction
of our environment.
What to you is an honorable man?
A public office is a public trust. Redeem yourself for the last term.
Leave a legacy, for the last term of your office and stop this negligence
and ignorant of the law.
Please refer to Republic Act No. 7942, Chapter VIII, Quarry Resources, Section 43 to 50.

But, to be fair, we challenge the neighborhood of this LGU to please
do your own investigation. We challenged the DILG, DENR/PENRO,
AKLAN GOVERNMENT, environment advocates and the
PEOPLE OF NEW WASHINGTON.
