ISA si Nadine Lustre sa mga tumututol sa umano’y ipapatayo ng pamahalaan na P144 million worth na tulay sa Siargao.
Ayon kay Nadine, hindi lamang siya kungdi maging ang ilang residente ay tutol din sa planong pagpapagawa ng tulay dahil pinangangalagaan ng Siargaonons ang kanilang magandang isla.
Anila, ang pagpapatayo umano ng tulay ay makakasira sa -destroy.sa.peaceful and well-preserved area ng isla.
Narito ang mahabang paliwanag ni Nadine.
“More than anything else, the people need the money to help them recover after Typhoon Odette, which makes them wonder why the provincial government is trying to fast-track the project.
“The statement also said that the DENR has already stated that the project will impact the ecosystem of Siargao,” sabi si Nadineni, citing yung dokumento sa gagawing bridge
Ang sinasabing “fast-tracked bridge project” na nagkakahalaga ng P144 million ay iko-connect sa Bgy. Malinao sa General Luna at Bgy. Union sa Dapa.
Marami sa mga residente na tutol dito ay dahil marami raw sa lugar na nabanggit ang lubhang maapektuhan ng itatayong tulay.
Ilan pa sa ilang punto na ishinare ni Nadine.
“No less than 144 million pesos of public funds is about to get used for a bridge-project that nobody wants…Most of the residents of this area are strongly against it.
“This bridge will destroy one of the most peaceful and greenest areas in General Luna, this area hosts major eco-luxury resorts and famous natural beach areas that are open to all. It will also destroy a great amount of protected seagrass and mangrove forests.
“The local and Provincial DENR have already passed resolutions against this project and they have recognized that it would seriously endanger the local ecosystem and protected area without providing a benefit to the public. Still they are insisting to push this project forward.
“There is already a road that goes to Union from Malinao, we don’t need another one. The DENR has said that it will impact the ecosystem there greatly…”
Ipinost din ni Nadine ang larawan ng mga magagandang tanawin ng virgin island.
Hindi namna nagoahguli ang netizens sa pagko-comment:
“She loves siargao talaga:
“How about advancement of the province? Bakit lagi pinipigilan ang growth kung may chance naman?”
“Have you been to Siargao? There are many other ways for growth without disrupting a habitat.”
“Then it will be just another Boracay. Eh, yung pagiging untouched ang charm ng Siargao. Maganda na siya as is”
May punto din naman ang isang nag-comment sa post ni Nadine.
“Advancement? Construction does not always equate to advancement. And also, advancement at what cost? The ecosystem that makes the area beautiful and attractive to tourists. Isa pa, hindi ka taga diyan. Tanungin mo muna sila kung gusto nila yang ‘advancement’ niyo.
“Actually ang daming proposals na projects for siargao but local government and locals ayaw talaga. It has advantages and disadvantages obviously.
“The province can advance without destroying the ecosystem. People who think like you are the reason why this planet is being destroyed.”
Sadyang marami ang may ayaw na baguhin ang tahimik na Siargao.
Liblib na lugar man ito, malaki ang naitutulong sa mga Pinoy na gustong makapag-isip at magnilay-nilay if they want to refresh their life lalo na sa kanilang health and mental condition.
“Advancement kung saan macocompromise ang natural resources? No. There are better ways to build infrastructure while also conserving the environment kung gugustuhin nila.”
“I agree! Leave Siargao alone. It’s peaceful, serene, calm as it is.”
“Hello Nadine, ganon talaga kapag napapansin ang ganda ng lugar. Mas dinarayo ng tao, mas madaming kailangan ipatayo para din yan sa ikauunlad ng community. Sa totoo lang tayo. Pero sana merong area na restricted talaga at bawal galawin.”
“Mabait na siya. I’m starting to like her.”
“A bridge can be built without destroying the ecosystem and marine life. Only it will be an eyesore. What is the purpose of the bridge anyway?”
Tanong naman ng isang netizen: “Theyre building a farm to market bridge that will advanced the way of life of the people in the province. So save the beach how about the people’s livelihood?”
Well, siguro napansin ang lugar dahil ang daming mga artistang nagpupuntahan sa Siargao.
Sila na rin ang nagsasabing nakakatulong ang Siargao lalo na sa kanilang anxiety problem.
At eto ay napatunayan ni Nadine at Yassi Pressman.
Even Andi Eigenmann, tinalikuran ang kasikatan para sa kanyang mahal niyang si Philmar Alipayo.
