Abstract:
"In this 2007 Congress, there was a resounding call for mainstreaming, upscaling and improving implementation of ICM plans and programs (see Congress Resolution). These efforts need to be harmonized with that of coastal land-use plans. Appropriating budgets through a regular share of its Internal Revenue Allotment (IRA) for all coastal municipalities will be targeted by 2009. Accelerating efforts in MPA effectiveness by increasing the size of full protection through no-take areas and MPA networks will be advocated. This will hopefully lead to reduction in the economic loss from over-fishing, which is estimated at about Php 1.6 billion per year in lost fish catch. Reducing degradation trends especially from habitat modification and pollution is the increasing emergent concern. Our next challenges especially in relation to regulating elite capture of the coastal zones, preventing irresponsible mining and poor landuse, can be transformed into an opportunity when corporate social responsibility (CSR) will translate into social enterprises with fair public investment partnerships"--Foreword.
