About 100 residents of Barangay Tayud in Consolacion, Cebu signed a manifesto imploring the country’s top official to stop the “Seafront City” reclamation project which they said will not only affect their livelihood but also their homes.

“We are poor residents who can’t afford to live in expensive subdivisions or get an apartment unit. We survive on fishing and doing hard labor like working in shipyards that are located in our barangay,” they said in their petition.

The fishermen were later joined by their wives and children for the ceremonial signing of a petition addressed to President Duterte at the mangroves swamp in the area to show how the proposed project would lead to the destruction of the marine habitat there. Affected residents lamented that they were never consulted by the municipal government nor were they invited in a public hearing on the project.The residents of Barangay Tayud were the second group to file a petition to the President to stop the reclamation project.

Based on the records of the Securities and Exchange Commission, LCSDC was only incorporated last Oct. 31, 2019 with a capitalization of P10 million. Among the incorporators were incumbent Rep. Victor Yap of Tarlac and his brother, Jose Yap Jr., who is former mayor of San Jose town in Tarlac.
