MOALBOAL Mayor Inocentes Cabaron has issued a stern warning to tourists in that southern town, particularly those engaged in water activities, to refrain from disturbing marine life.“We will not tolerate actions such as this,” said Cabaron after a video surfaced online last Monday, March 11, 2024, showing a female tourist touching a sea turtle while snorkeling in Panagsama Beach, one of Moalboal’s top tourist attractions. The video concerned netizens. It gained 3.4 million views as of 8 p.m. Friday, March 15.“Shoutout to the woman who can’t understand simple instructions. She’s been told numerous times that it’s ‘prohibited’ to touch the turtles. Not only did she touch them, she even pushed them,” the uploader under the TikTok handle “HomeWorkoutBasic” said in Pilipino. The incident reportedly happened on Saturday, March 9. “What happened to this woman? She’s not following the rules! She knows that touching sea turtles is not allowed,” another Facebook user said while sharing a SunStar Cebu post on the matter. Moalboal officials have since issued a reminder to the public on Wednesday, March 13, emphasizing the importance of respecting marine wildlife and refraining from any activities that may cause harm to them. Cabaron expressed disappointment saying that tourists are given a thorough briefing on proper conduct before participating in any activities. “They are told not to touch the marine life because we have a local ordinance that [protects] them. It is disappointing that despite the briefing and regular reminders, incidents like this happen,” said Cabaron.The mayor explained that there is a local ordinance in place that aims to protect marine life, and anyone caught violating the ordinance will be fined P2,500.The ordinance entitled “Institutionalizing and regulating the conduct of snorkeling and island hopping activities within the Pescador Island, marine protected areas, and other coastal areas within the municipal waters, and the establishment of the environmental user’s fee system” was passed on Sept. 27, 2021.Section 20 of the ordinance lists 13 violations, including a prohibition on touching any marine life.Moalboal officials are now looking for the tourist and her local guide that was seen in the video.“We treasure and protect our marine life because as a tourist town, it is a major factor in our economy. We will not tolerate actions such as this and we will ensure that the individual will be fined to discourage similar reckless actions,” Cabaron said.Wild animalsMylene Panuncial-Sadagnot, a marine biologist for 21 years and professor at Cebu Normal University, said turtles, like other wild animals, are not domesticated pets that go about and seek people’s attention at times.She also said touching turtles could provoke them to retaliate or bite if they feel agitated by the presence of humans viewed as a potential threat.Sadagnot observed that turtles in Moalboal do not necessarily reproduce there, as they primarily use the area as a feeding ground rather than a breeding site. Male turtles eventually migrate and depart for the breeding season, leaving female turtles accustomed to the environment.She explained the situation is dangerous for both humans and turtles as it could result in bites or wounds that could be severe for humans; and secondly, turtles might be vulnerable to poaching.Poaching refers to the illegal hunting, capturing, or killing of wildlife, typically for commercial gain. Additionally, the waters of Moalboal are part of the Tañon Strait Protected Seascape, located between the islands of Cebu and Negros. It is the largest marine protected area in the Philippines, covering 5,182 square kilometers.Under Presidential Proclamation 1234, which created the protected seascape in 1998, the entire Tañon Strait is protected, and all cetaceans are afforded full protection by local and national laws.Cabaron said the local tourism office is moving to improve the quality of snorkeling guides by having them accredited by the Department of Tourism. To achieve this, officials recently conducted a seven-day seminar for around 200 guides in Moalboal. The seminar mainly focused on teaching proper protocols in handling guests and marine life. / KJF, CDF The Best Online Football Philippines MUMBAI, India -- Krystyna Pyszková of the Czech Republic was crowned Miss World at a glittering contest held in India on Saturday night, March 9, 2024.Yasmina Zaytoun of Lebanon was the first runner-up among 112 contestants in the competition held in Mumbai, India’s financial and entertainment capital.“Being crowned Miss World is a dream come true.

(AP) Palarong Pambansa THE Philippines and Australia inked on Thursday, February 29, 2024, three agreements that are seen to enhance the two countries’ information sharing, capability building, and interoperability in various issues.President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said the agreements cover the maritime domain and maritime environment, cyber and critical technology, and the effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the two countries.“The three agreements add to the more than 120 agreements that our two countries have signed through the decades. And these are in various fields, including defense cooperation, air services, education, research, scientific and cultural cooperation, amongst others,” he said.Marcos said the agreement on maritime domain is aimed to enhance the cooperation between the Philippines and Australia in order to strengthen the civil military cooperation, promote international law and rules-based international order, safeguard the marine environment and cultural heritage, enhance defense engagements, and establish avenues for dialogue among relevant agencies.As he addressed the Australia Parliament, Marcos highlighted the need for Australia and the Philippines to join forces along with their allies against threats to the rule of law, to stability and peace in the Indo-Pacific region, as well as to reinforce each other’s strength and continue to protect peace and oppose actions that violates international laws.Australia is one of the only two partners with which the Philippines has a Visiting Forces Agreement.“We have long known that our prosperity and development are anchored on the peace and stability of the Indo-Pacific. Today, that peace, that stability, and our continued success, have come under threat,” said Marcos.“Once again, we must come together as partners to face the common challenges confronting the region. Not one single country can do this by itself. No single force alone can counter them by themselves,” he added.Marcos reiterated that the Philippine government will not waver in its resolve not to allow any foreign power to take even a single square inch of the Philippine sovereignty amid prevailing issues in the West Philippine Sea (WPS), which he earlier described as worrisome.“I shall never tire of repeating the declaration that I made from the first day that I took office: I will not allow any attempt by any foreign power to take even one square inch of our sovereign territory,” he said.“The challenges that we face may be formidable, but equally formidable is our resolve. We will not yield. Then as now, the security and continued prosperity of the region -- of countries like Australia -- relies upon that effort. Just as we fought to build our rules-based international order, so are we now fighting to protect it,” he said.He maintained, though, that the Philippines has an abiding interest in keeping its seas free and open, and in ensuring unimpeded passage and freedom of navigation as he noted the importance of upholding, preservation and defending the unified and universal character of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea as the constitution of the oceans.In a joint press conference after a meeting with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Marcos said the two countries discussed ways to amplify their joint maritime activities, as they both acknowledge the ties between Australia and the Philippines particularly on defense, maritime cooperation, non-traditional security concerns, trade and investment, development cooperation, multilateral collaboration and people-to-people linkages.“Defense and security remain a key area of cooperation between the Philippines and of Australia. We look forward to amplifying our joint activities and the capacity-building efforts in this regard,” said Marcos.In terms of cyber and critical technology, Marcos said the Philippines is looking forward to sharing information and best practices with Australia, including the conduct of capacity building, promoting a secured digital economy, and achieving greater understanding of the application of international law norms in cyberspace.The cooperation on effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the Philippines and Australia is one of the practical ways of the two countries to strengthen economic relations through the sharing of best practices and the conduct of capacity building on matters involving merger regulations, competition laws, and investigative techniques relevant to implementing competition laws.Marcos and Albanese also discussed greater bilateral economic cooperation, which will allow both the Philippines and Australia to withstand shocks, to be resilient against economic coercion, and to provide an enabling environment for businesses and labor markets.He added that they both look forward to more robust people-to-people ties to drive greater cooperation between the two countries and its peoples.“The significant Filipino diaspora, the fifth largest immigrant community here in Australia, has contributed significantly to the economic and cultural wellbeing not only of our country, but yours as well,” the President said.“It is also an undeniable indicator of Australia’s openness to embrace a globalized and interconnected world. Both the Philippines and Australia welcome future consultations and dialogues as we explore and map the uncharted waters that can bring in new opportunities for a closer and stronger relationship between our two countries,” he added.

Today, that peace, that stability, and our continued success, have come under threat,” said Marcos.“Once again, we must come together as partners to face the common challenges confronting the region. Not one single country can do this by itself. No single force alone can counter them by themselves,” he added.Marcos reiterated that the Philippine government will not waver in its resolve not to allow any foreign power to take even a single square inch of the Philippine sovereignty amid prevailing issues in the West Philippine Sea (WPS), which he earlier described as worrisome.“I shall never tire of repeating the declaration that I made from the first day that I took office: I will not allow any attempt by any foreign power to take even one square inch of our sovereign territory,” he said.“The challenges that we face may be formidable, but equally formidable is our resolve. We will not yield. Then as now, the security and continued prosperity of the region -- of countries like Australia -- relies upon that effort. Just as we fought to build our rules-based international order, so are we now fighting to protect it,” he said.He maintained, though, that the Philippines has an abiding interest in keeping its seas free and open, and in ensuring unimpeded passage and freedom of navigation as he noted the importance of upholding, preservation and defending the unified and universal character of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea as the constitution of the oceans.In a joint press conference after a meeting with Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Marcos said the two countries discussed ways to amplify their joint maritime activities, as they both acknowledge the ties between Australia and the Philippines particularly on defense, maritime cooperation, non-traditional security concerns, trade and investment, development cooperation, multilateral collaboration and people-to-people linkages.“Defense and security remain a key area of cooperation between the Philippines and of Australia. We look forward to amplifying our joint activities and the capacity-building efforts in this regard,” said Marcos.In terms of cyber and critical technology, Marcos said the Philippines is looking forward to sharing information and best practices with Australia, including the conduct of capacity building, promoting a secured digital economy, and achieving greater understanding of the application of international law norms in cyberspace.The cooperation on effective implementation of the respective competition laws and policies of the Philippines and Australia is one of the practical ways of the two countries to strengthen economic relations through the sharing of best practices and the conduct of capacity building on matters involving merger regulations, competition laws, and investigative techniques relevant to implementing competition laws.Marcos and Albanese also discussed greater bilateral economic cooperation, which will allow both the Philippines and Australia to withstand shocks, to be resilient against economic coercion, and to provide an enabling environment for businesses and labor markets.He added that they both look forward to more robust people-to-people ties to drive greater cooperation between the two countries and its peoples.“The significant Filipino diaspora, the fifth largest immigrant community here in Australia, has contributed significantly to the economic and cultural wellbeing not only of our country, but yours as well,” the President said.“It is also an undeniable indicator of Australia’s openness to embrace a globalized and interconnected world. Both the Philippines and Australia welcome future consultations and dialogues as we explore and map the uncharted waters that can bring in new opportunities for a closer and stronger relationship between our two countries,” he added.
