THE PHILIPPINES IS closing its best-known holiday island Boracay to tourists for up to six months over concerns that the once idyllic white-sand resort has become a “cesspool” tainted by dumped sewage, authorities have said.
Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte has ordered the shutdown to start on 26 April for a maximum period of half a year, his spokesman Harry Roque said.
“Boracay is known as a paradise in our nation and this temporary closure is (meant) to ensure that the next generations will also experience that,” Roque told reporters.
This show that were is will you can do things.
Of course 6 months is too little, but still better 6 months to keep things as they were. But here the important things is the move to do something that the day before would be consider impossible, a step to the end of the world and things like this.
A example to the world.
AND WE SHOULD ALL HAVE IN MIND THIS:
Tourism industry is a pillar of Globalization, and a very negative industry for the Native Nations, their Cultures and Lands.
