Thank you very much to all who supported us against the plan to put
up a cement factory near the coral reefs of Bolinao and Anda! The
Department of Environment and Natural Resources of the Philippines
has decided not to issue an Environmental Compliance Certificate to
the Pangasinan Cement Corporation for: (a) unacceptable environmental
risks, (b) serious land and resource use conflict, and (c) problems
of social acceptability.
