At least 700 fisherfolk and coastal families will be displaced with the construction of a P700-billion airport project in Bulakan, Bulacan, according to fisherfolk group Pambansang Lakas ng Kilusang Mamamalakaya ng Pilipinas. Pamalakaya said the environmental compliance certificate (ECC) issued by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to Silvertides Holdings, a contractor of San Miguel Corp., on Monday would involve the reclamation of 2,500 hectares of coastal waters. The group said it would be the fourth reclamation project granted an ECC under the Duterte administration.
