    Excerpt
    President Rodrigo Duterte placed Boracay Island under a state of calamity. Only four out of nine wetlands in the island remain due to the illegal encroachment of structures, he said. The structures included 937 illegally constructed on forestlands and wetlands, as well as 102 erected on areas already classified as easements.
