SC asked to clarify ruling on Manila Bay
Excerpt
A militant fisherfolk group asked the Supreme Court on Tuesday to issue a legal opinion on whether its order for a cleanup of the Manila Bay would involve strictly the rehabilitation of the bay or also include reclamation and privatization. “What is truly their (high court magistrates’) opinion? Is it a cleanup in Manila Bay or conversion and privatization?” Fernando Hicap, national chairman of the Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamalakaya ng Pilipinas (Pamalakaya, National Fishers Movement of the Philippines), told reporters after filing the four-page appeal addressed to the justices.
