A call for protection of rice terraces in Antique

Sen. Loren Legarda welcomed the discovery of rice terraces in the province of Antique and said it should further elicit respect for nature and for our cultural heritage.

“The merging of our people’s ingenuity and nature, as exemplified by these rice paddies, is both humbling and inspiring. To think that it was just in our backyard this whole time,” said Legarda, who is an Antiqueña.
