I’m not in favor at this time untill the thorough investigation if it is safe to operate. <\/p>\n

“No”…. If given a chose to make a difference, I would not approve of Mining Operation on Biliran Island. Based on the effort by Biliranians to improve Tourism. I think Mining Operations would not only harm the Tourism effort, but over time I believe the beautiful environment on the Island will suffer as well. <\/p>\n

They may harmed the people of biliran, especially villagers near the site of operation. Once the goverment let them, they do only is ruining our habitat.
\nThose people are craving to do it again and again, from place to place where they thought ,can get more treasure\/minerals.
\nPS: DONT EVER LET THEM! <\/p>\n

Although it can help employment of the area, but of course it can destroy the agricultural land of the area. Local government should study carefully the effect of this mining. Biliran province is not realy ideal for mining <\/p>\n

Mining could generate income. But if the generated income will just go to the “dirty hands”, better not.
\nOne more thing, if you touch and disturb nature, you can hardly evade on its vengeance. <\/p>\n

mining is good as long as the process is legal , thus affected people will be relocated with the expense of mining company. <\/p>\n

emmanuel buriel posted: 8-Jan-2009 10:37 <\/p>\n

I disagree with the mining operation in our island province, because with that kind of operation is considered as an extracted economy where in mining, once you extract the mineral, you cannot plant again. Unlike in the agriculture, you can plant again for the next harvest. <\/p>\n

Mining is not bad per se so that it important the detail of such business endeavor. No one want it to be like what happen to a mining scandal that happens in southern Luzon involving an Australian company\/owner\/operator. No or yes it depends, for fear one would opt for no because of unforeseeable disastrous results.. <\/p>\n

If you have mining, then many local people will have work. The Province will gain TAXES from the mining companies, to improve ALL public services that people complain about now. Australia IS a large mining and export Country. So take a leaf from their book, and LEARN. <\/p>\n
