Masungi is a "Treasure Trove". Let us all preserve it for the future Generation. Keep fighting for Masungi


Wazzup Pilipinas!?



The government should focus its energy on more pressing issues, rather than attempting to undermine Masungi, which is crucial for biodiversity and environmental preservation. It's time to show decency and respect for Mother Nature. To all the Masungi heroes, we stand with you in this important fight. 


At Masungi, we’re committed to protecting this sanctuary and its vital ecosystems. Despite the challenges, we will continue to stand strong on our cause to preserve our nature


The people who have a control of that is your congressman and mayor.


as long as they are paid by the people who have interest, things like that will be allowed to happen.


Tama po ba ako Municipality of Tanay, Rizal? Duavit at Tanjuatco?


Typically to what they are doing at Abra river delta rampant quarrying is going on dozens of ships are falling in line and leaving at south direction, DENR, PCG are sleeping


Politicians really no good through out this years, only them selves are important to bulged their pocket of money they really dont care about mother nature


Do not wait for Masungi to be destroyed like what happened in the Islands of Manicani & Homonhon.  Open Pit Mining and on- going Mining in Homonhon Island.  Unfortunately,  DENR Region 8 gave a Cutting Permit to hundreds of trees given  to a Mining Concessionaire.  How on earth a government agency, is  giving a permit, to cut trees.

Scenario. The people of Homonhon Island is already experiencing lack of potable water, irrigation, their livelihood and destruction  of the historical Island. Even  the LGU of  Guiuan Officials cannot do otherwise,  especially if the order is from the higher ups. Only in the Philippines.


Dont get fooled by the pretext of "preserving" to actually land grabbing. 

 

You wouldnt know nor would understand, because what they want you to see is not what they do behind their "noble"facade. 

Is there still a free lunch? Think more. 


Politics is the main culprit,,those dirty politicians,and greedy goverment employees, Some denr employees were also corrupt,they fed their children from corruption, they were shameless peoples,,


There is no justice here even the senate to stop there they nothing to gain from this situation

If only we could have vigilantes hunting corrupt officials  one by one just to staighten them up. 


Let’s keep fighting for our rights for Masungi Georeserve. For our children and next generations.!

Masungi Georeserve: A Battle for Nature's Legacy


The Masungi Georeserve stands as a beacon of hope and resilience in a world increasingly plagued by environmental degradation and greed. Nestled in the heart of Rizal province, it is a sanctuary that nurtures biodiversity, shields against natural disasters, and inspires millions. Yet, its survival is under threat—faced with relentless illegal logging, quarrying, and the encroachment of destructive human projects.


As we usher in 2025, the fight for Masungi's preservation intensifies. Its defenders, undeterred by challenges and even threats to their lives, continue to stand firm. Their unwavering commitment to safeguarding this treasure trove for future generations is both inspiring and urgent.


The Relentless Threats

Despite its critical role in maintaining ecological balance, Masungi faces ongoing assaults from private entities and political interests. Quarrying companies persist in their destructive pursuits, ignoring the devastating consequences for the watershed and the communities it protects. The georeserve's natural windbreaks, essential during typhoons, are at risk of being destroyed. The environmental significance of this area cannot be overstated—it is a lifeline for countless species and a shield for human populations against climate-induced disasters.


The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), the agency tasked with protecting our natural resources, has often been accused of incompetence and corruption. Activists and advocates demand accountability, urging the DENR to rise above political pressures and prioritize the country's ecological welfare.


A Call for Accountability

The lack of decisive action from government bodies like DENR and Local Government Units (LGUs) has left many questioning their commitment to environmental preservation. Why are permits issued to cut down trees for mining and subdivisions when the damage to ecosystems is irreversible? Why do safety easements become accident-prone hazards instead of protective measures? These questions underscore the need for transparent and responsible governance.


Masungi's plight mirrors broader issues in the Philippines, where forests and agricultural lands are often sacrificed for profit. The transformation of vital green spaces into subdivisions and industrial zones has long-term implications for food security, water supply, and biodiversity. As one advocate aptly put it, "We need virtuous leaders to manage our resources wisely."


Standing Strong for the Future

Despite the grim reality, Masungi’s defenders remain resolute. They are planting hope—literally and figuratively—by reforesting degraded areas, educating communities, and advocating for stricter environmental laws. Their fight is not just for Masungi but for the broader principle that nature deserves to thrive alongside humanity.


Uniting for a Cause

The battle for Masungi is not just a local issue; it is a call to action for everyone who values the environment. Social media campaigns, petitions, and grassroots movements are amplifying the voices of those who demand justice for Masungi. The hashtags #ProtectMasungi and #StopQuarrying have become rallying cries, uniting people across the nation and beyond.


Environmental advocates urge everyone to join the cause. Speak out against destructive practices, demand accountability from government officials, and support organizations dedicated to conservation. The future of Masungi—and countless ecosystems like it—depends on collective action.


A Shared Responsibility

The Masungi Georeserve is more than just a patch of land; it is a symbol of resilience, a testament to what can be achieved when humanity works in harmony with nature. But this sanctuary needs allies—people who will fight for it, protect it, and preserve it for the next generation.


As one advocate passionately stated, "Protecting nature is divine, and no man-made laws can challenge that." The time to act is now. Together, we can ensure that Masungi remains a sanctuary where nature and humanity thrive.


Let us stand with Masungi. Let us fight for its survival. For our children, for our planet, and for the legacy we leave behind.
