“Gifts for the Election Winners & Others – from Nature”  

on Wednesday, May 19 @ 1830H (RP Time) in Kalikasan, Kaunlaran! at DZRH-AM radio (666 in Metro Manila, other kHz nationwide), various TV stations (Ch. 9 in Metro Manila, other cable TV channels nationwide), & Internet http://dzrh.prepys.com or http://dzrh.tripod.com.

T he Filipino people have spoken. Senator Noynoy Aquino will be the Philippines’ next President. Whether we voted for him or not, his government is our government and we now have to help make it succeed.

Various groups & leaders have already started to send him “love” letters with expectations and requests for priority action on some identified issues. To these, we add our request for him to consider our environment as an essential part of his “constituents” that need priority attention. It will be the best source of natural gifts for all of us that can help reduce poverty—if only we shall take care of it well.

We now speak on behalf of the silent majority source of these potential natural gifts—our flora and fauna that have already made us stand out as one of the most bio-diversified countries in the world. Unfortunately, how we have treated our environment has also made us stand out as a biodiversity “hotspot” in the world.

To hear what gifts we can get from our natural environment, tune in or watch Kalikasan, Kaunlaran! on May 19, 2010, Wednesday, at 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (Manila time) at DZRH-AM radio (666 in Metro Manila, other kHz nationwide), various TV stations (Ch. 9 in Metro Manila, other cable TV channels nationwide), & Internet http://dzrh.prepys.com or http://dzrh.tripod.com.
