Press Statement

Legal Rights and Natural Resources Center (LRC-KsK)– Luzon

Scrap the National Mining Policy Now!

Respect LGU Autonomy!

Contrary to the promises of progress and development, communities have reaped predominantly

negative social economic and environmental impacts from mining operations. The mining industry

has missed miserable on its targets and promises – investments, revenues, jobs and environmental

responsibilities. In fact it has caused numerous violations on human rights, indigenous peoples’

rights, undermined local autonomy, and worse, aggravated environmental and ecological degradation.
