Siargao Island is the largest protected area under the National Integrated Protected Area System Act due to its mangrove forests, which cover an area of 8,620 hectares.
The MMK program’s five general criteria include absence of illegal fishing, observance of closed fishing season, establishment of marine protected areas, clean coastal waters without domestic and industrial wastes, and effective mangrove protection and rehabilitation program. “Protection of our mountains and watershed also allowed [a] good source of water for irrigation which when several people started to grow their food, was enough to support the farms. The non-disturbance of the forest trees also attracted good rain that was enough to toil our farms,” he added.
Last May, the local government of Del Carmen and the Wellife Corporation, a home care products company, also signed a memorandum of agreement for the company’s extension of regular support for the conservation of 10 hectares of the municipality’s mangrove forest. “We were struck by 275 kilometers per hour winds. Our cell sites at that time were only equipped to withstand 175 to 200 kilometers per hour winds. And so we saw… the whole cell towers were twisted metal. And that is how 275 kilometers per hour winds can do to metal,” she said, noting the devastation caused by Yolanda.
