Barangay Debangan in Taytay, Palawan is a well-known tourist destination for green sea turtles, according to Kimberly Mamburam, a staff of the Sulubaai Environmental Foundation, which is helping the village turn itself into a marine protected area (MPA). Mamburam reveals that a public hearing was conducted in the village last 7 June to consult the community regarding zoning of the proposed 119.9-hectare marine protected area encompassing its coastal waters in Taytay Bay. The barangay council has been actively advocating for the establishment of an MPA to protect the turtles and promote sustainable tourism.
