Save our sunset, save Freedom Island: don’t destroy Manila Bay

WE agree with the environmentalist groups gathered under the S.O.S. Manila Bay: Save our Sunset! No to Reclamation of Manila Bay and the Save Freedom Island movements. They oppose the San Miguel Corporation proposal to build a $10-billion international airport to replace NAIA on land to be reclaimed at a place straddling Paranaque and Las Piñas near the Manila-Cavite Coastal Road. We join them in their opposition and ask our readers to join us in this crusade.

Many high-powered groups have already voiced their willingness to support and invest in the project. This is expected because the proponent is no less than the SMC conglomerate.
