Yesterday, the Protected Area Management Board(PAMB) of Sibalom Natural Park met at the Sibalom Water District office. The meeting was presided by the boyish DENR PENRO Vicente Sardina.
Among the agenda taken were the SB Resolution authorizing the Municipal Mayor to negotiate in behalf of the Municipality for the Loan-Grant offered by the German Bank KFW for Sibalom Natural Park. Also in the agenda are the study proposals of the Egaña National School on the Rafflesia and the Leyte State University students.
Aside from the students from the respective schools, the guests included representatives from the PROCESS Foundation ( a local NGO), Hon. Tobias Javier (Provincial Board Member), and Hons. Lorryvice Magdaug and Edgar Denosta (SB Members).
Hon. Denosta informed the PAMB body that the SB Members have already passed a Resolution to Authorize the Municipal Mayor to negotiate with the Landbank and KFW regarding the proposed P20-35 million loan-grant offered by KFW. The next step will be the Letter of Intent of the Municipal Mayor.
The proposed projects would directly benefit the 16 barangays involved in the protection of Sibalom Natural Park. The Sibalom Natural Park, as remembered, is one of the major accomplishment of then Mayor Erick Javier Lotilla, when he was very instrumental in the proclamation of the park as the first Natural Park in Panay under the NIPAS Act.
