“We would like to thank our partners nga nag-uban sa atoa nga mga national agency, mga companies nga naa sila’y mga area, CSO’s including na atong mga simbahan, ug transport group. We would like to balance, kabalo man ta nga robust man ang road widening, dili nato kalikayan maputol ang atong mga kahoy labi na sa daplin sa karsada. So gibawi nato ni siya sa pagpananom og kahoy sa atong mga river easement to balance out the lost carbon sequestration sa atong mga trees nga nangaputol.”, MENR Officer Sharon Tacbobo stated during their tree planting activity in commemoration of “Father Neri Satur Day” on October 15, 2024, following the MOU signing.
