Stop Cavite demolition, fishermen ask

THE fishermen’s group Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas on Tuesday urged an end to the  violent demolition in a barangay in Maragondon, Cavite and appealed to President Rodrigo Duterte to stop all the demolition of fishing communities for eco-tourism purposes.

“With or without relocation, the government should refrain from evicting fisherfolk from coastal communities especially if it would only replaced by big businesses’ money-making hub. ‘No relocation, no demolition’ scheme is too complicated so it should be a ‘no more demolition’ at all,” Fernando Hicap, Pamalakaya chairperson, said.
