Macalingao Islet Dispute
« on: June 17, 2009, 07:47:59 PM »
By Rey Anthony Chiu

Cooler heads finally prevailed after two town dads diplomatically banged the hammer to seal an age-long irritant dispute between Inabanga and Clarin towns.
 
After bearing with problems of alleged boundary incursions and unprotected white sand poaching in disputed Macalingao islet, Mayors Jose Jono Jumamoy and Hermogenes Diezon of nearby Clarin have finally come to the table to talk likereal gentlemen about the issue.
 
Finally coming up with a win-win solution, both towns agree co-ownership, some parts belonging to Inabanga and the part, to Clarin.
 
Mayor Jumamoy, in a recent interview bared that Macalinao, an islet off Clarin and Inabanga has been a venue for white sand poaching by enterprising people who see the business of supplying Cebu resorts with white sand for their beaches very lucrative.
 
The islet, technically an uninhabited sand bar disappears during high tides, but has a teeming sea grass environment and would rather be very helpful in sustaining local fisheries, Jumamoy stressed.
 
Besides, he added, making it known that the island is co-owned by two towns doubles up its chances of protection, especially in the implementation of the resource and coastal law enforcement measures.
 
“Protecting Macalingao from poachers now is ascertained, unlike before when towns implementing coastal and island resource protection is uncertain over disputed claims,” Mayor Jumamoy said.
 
Sources close to both towns agree that the islet, like Puntod and Bugatoson also fall as victims.
 
Earlier Clarin Mayor Diezon also said his town is happy that they have finally sealed the co-ownership of the islet.
 
He said his town council has allowed him to initiate settlement proceedings with Inabanga over the disputed islet.
 
Both mayors reportedly met at Macalinago islet Thursday to finally sign the agreement papers and start co-ownership proceedings. (rachiu/PIA)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

Kanang maong isla (actually sand bar) naa man gud na sa boundary sa duha ka lungsod.  Siyempre ilogan kay naa may tourism potential, which means added income sa whichever municipal government ang maka manage ana nga dapit.

Naay municipal waters (dagat) ang Clarin pero gamay ra kay mubo ra man pud ang iyang coastline.
