“The Sabang I know” ...has this foot bridge. • ...The bridge that crosses a small stream that marks the far boundary of where a row of “sawali” and “nipa” cottages used to stand. The beach cottage that was nearest this stream was the perennial favorite place for relaxation of the late polymath Antonio Socrates, a medical and geology doctor who made Palawan his home during most of his adult life. The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park in Puerto Princesa, Philippines is a UNESCO World Heritage destination that has suffered direct financial losses from the international tourism and travel industry due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. • Nikkor 50mm. f/5.6. 1/125sec.

From “Chasing Another Minamata” (reportage) • A toddler plays by the window of their nipa hut as her mother (partially visible) answers questions during a multi-sectoral survey on mercury contamination in humans living in the vicinity of an abandoned cinnabar mine in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines on August 11, 2020. A separate study conducted by researchers at the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) of the Philippine Department of Science and Technology published in the ASEAN Journal on Science and Technology for Development in August 2020 indicates a US EPA Hazard Index value greater of ">1." In the study headed by environmental chemist Jessie Samaniego, the amount of mercury in the communities impacted by the high concentration of mercury in the environment of the abandoned mine is considered "beyond acceptable limits." In another report published by Samaniego last October, chromium concentration in groundwater from newly drilled boreholes in the area were found to have exceeded WHO and Philippine environmental regulation values. Chromium is naturally occurring in ultramafic rocks where mercury minerals are deposited during geological intrusion. Its hexavalent form is highly toxic to humans and naturally transported in water systems. 50mm #VIReframingHistory #PhotoVogueFestival #PuertoPrincesa #Palawan #documentary #mercury #MinamataConventionOnMercury #MinamataDisease #Chronic Exposure #MercuryPathways #PortraitsForEnvironment #HeadshotsForEnvironment .@alessiaglaviano .@vogueitalia === (at Pulang Lupa, Sta.

Hindi si Noynoy at ang mga hindi naikuwentong kabutihan niya ang problema natin. Ang problema natin ay ang kasalukuyang Presidente at ang mga kababayang patuloy nagpapaniwala sa bayolente at bastos na uri ng pamumuhay na isinusulong ng dugyot ng Davao.
