| local.seafdecaqd.extract | The global community has taken notice of the Philippines' protection of natural reefs by giving Republic Act 10067 or the Tubbataha Natural Park Act a silver award in the 2012 Future Policy Awards as a model in coral reefs conservation in the world. The award recognizes the country's effort to protect the environment, which should serve as an inspiration to other countries to adopt similar law or policy to protect their coastal and sea areas. The management of the natural park is run by local authorities and non-government organizations. | en |
