Bohol ties up with ABSCBN
« on: August 18, 2009, 01:20:20 PM »
Sustaining Bohol water sources earn a little bit of help from the ABS-CBN Foundation’s Bantay Kalikasan and the country’s environment department.

Bohol officials Friday signed a memorandum of agreement with ABS-CBN and the Department of Environment and Natural Resources for the conservation and rehabilitation program of at least 30,000 square hectares of watersheds.

By that, they also ascertained that the partnerships forged could be the onset of brighter things for environmental intervention in this island whose residents swear on the environment protection as a way of life.

The signing held at the Loboc Children’s Palace signals the putting up of environmental remedies to the 19,000 square hectares of catchment in the Loboc watershed and some 11,000 square hectares of watershed comprised by six towns sharing the Abatan River.

Keeping the watershed for future generations and assuring its judicious use as a resources, has been a dream of communities within the watershed areas, aired a community organizer who was well into resource rehabilitation in addition to the development.

At the MOA signing were no less than ABSCBN foundation’s Gina Lopez and DENR’s Lito Atienza, who also took his adoption as honorary son of Bohol that day. Governor Erico Aumentado signed the partnership MOA for Bohol.

Both Abatan and Loboc watersheds have been eyed as possible alternative water sources for Tagbilaran City and its nearby towns. Bohol’s partnering with Bantay Kalikasan and knowing its track record with the Luzon’s La Mesa Dam has slready elated Boholanos.

Part of the development is establishing nature parks with in the watershed area, cutting out trails for trekking, camping and picnic grounds, bird watching sites and putting up reforestation programs to rehabilitate the general area, explains Atty. Tomas Abapo earlier.

We could be creating a new tourism destination in Loboc, to complement with the usual rivercruises and tarsier inter-action, a tour operator admitted given the opportunity to project for the success of the programmed partnership.

But the biggest victory shoud be for the community within the watershed areas to be taught how to care for their owned resource and using the help of other cooperative agencies to make a pitch for the good life, the tourism stakeholder shared. (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.

this project supports aumentado's dream of improving the water resources of bohol so he can sell it to cebu. kulang man gani ug tubig sa bohol, unya iya na pud ibaligya sa cebu?

water resource improvement for bohol: YES!
