DESCRIPTION

CAFOD is campaigning about how the community of Macambol in Philippines has been kept in the dark over a proposed mine on their lands. Messages of support have been giving the people much-needed hope and encouragement in their struggle for justice

TRANSCRIPT

“Macambol is my birthplace and my residence”(Danilo)

“I fear that our environment will be destroyed and nothing will be left for the next generations” (Tala)

Voices from Macambol

“I want to protect my family and neighbourhood from the bad effects of mining” (Amihan)

“I am overwhelmed with joy, together with our group, in knowing that people from other parts of the world are also concerned about the problems we face here in Macambol” (Apolinario)

“The messages of support enliven our spirit; give us encouragement; and, give us hope that we will be victorious in the cause we are fighting for” (Florisa)

“The messages strengthen our resolve to pursue our struggle” (Chesa)

“Companies must listen because campaigners speak for people who do not have chance to speak to mining companies” (Apolinario)

“You give us light and encouragement; keep up and continue the good work”

(Florisa)

“Please continue your support and prayers”

(Tala)
