The Boracay
Foundation Incorporated (BFI) won’t be having any objections if the reclamation
project at Brgy. Caticlan will push through.
This, however,
is if the Provincial Government of Aklan will pursue the project with only an area
of 2.6 hectares.
This is BFI
President Jony Salme’s reaction on an account that what they are only against
with is the 30-hectare reclamation that the Provincial Government wants to
implement previously.
According to
Salme, the 2.6 dimension is what the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (DENR) has given a “go signal”, and is the area stated on the
resolution and endorsement of the Municipal Council of Malay.
If, on the other
hand, the Province will push on the previous proposal, the BFI will once again
do a move to stop it.
The station has earlier
reported Aklan Congressman Teodoro Hareso’s statement to continue the reclamation
project in Caticlan for the sake of the tourists in Boracay.
Haresco declared
this during the oath taking of the newly elected officials in the Municipality
of Malay on the 22nd last month.
