what's new? the things we do for money

[lorong31]

Sheesh these people only think of the now and not of the tomorrow.

Dont these people know that it is our seas, beaches and other natural environments that are bringing in the money to this country via tourism.

[rakshasi]

hasola!!!! shame on them!!!

[GOSPELofROCH]

it only shows how strict the laws implemented in our country

[treize]

The Fisheries Code of 1998, which bans gathering and selling corals, punishes violators with imprisonment from six months to two years and a fine from 2,000 pesos ($46) to 20,000 pesos ($459).

No wonder why there are some ignorant people who continue in doing such deeds.. tsk! tsk! tsk! A damage to mother nature endangers the lives within the whole planet. It should be death sentence.

[noy.juan]

there will always be poachers as long as naay mopalit... this is not just govt job, this is a job for all of us...

[nealotol]

pag ka way ayo aning balitaa.. unsaon nalang ang mga gagmay nga isda ug ang mga itlog... mga matay..

[GemWArrioR]

don't worry, mother nature will fight back... katong mga tao na nag guba sa coral reef, they will suffer.. tapos, hingi naman ng tulong sa gobyerno na sila din ang mga kasalanan

[tokidoki]

i'm a little ignorant about this, but how is it possible that a few poachers can destroy a reef 2x the size of manila? how do we know this isn't an exaggeration from our treehugger friends?
