                    [Summary] => That was a nice pose by President Arroyo at Amos Reef in Palawan. She had to practice for that dive 82 feet down, reminding the nation about the wonders of Tubbataha Reef, a world natural heritage site.  Environ-mentalists, however, pointed out that the President was not supposed to touch the corals, which are the breeding grounds of marine life.

                    [Summary] => Senate Majority Leader Loren Legarda urged forest rangers yesterday to arrest and charge illegal loggers operating inside El Nido in Palawan before they could further damage the protected ecological sanctuary.


"It’s not for the rangers to boast of the many board feet of illegally cut timber that they have confiscated in El Nido, particularly on the island of Matinloc. Arrests should be made to set an example to loggers who have no respect for nature and our laws," she said in a statement.
