Decipher – human rights advocates in bad faith and human rights advocates in good faith

They say they are human rights advocate. They fight for the rights of the people, especially the marginalized many. But in reality, they are not.

The Mamamayan Ayaw sa Aerial Spray is hurling mad to cripple, and worse, kill the banana industry. They think they are fighting for the people’s cause. But in truth, they are guilty of violating the basic human rights to live and survive the present economic hard times, right to employment and the right to live without any inch of hunger.

“We promise to spread awareness about the issue and to help the victims of aerial spraying in Mindanao in whatever way we can,” added Cherryl Si, president of the Development Society.
She should be enlightened and she should come down to Davao City to personally learn the truth about aerial spraying from actual experience and knowledge and not through the forger Maas.

So-called development societies called on the banana industry “to prioritize the welfare of the people over any profit-generating strategy” that undermines the rights of the people.”
Without the banana industry in the Davao Region, the right and welfare of the people to live decent lives is lost. Maas’ ultimate aim is to kill the industry, cause unemployment and sow economic chaos, a formula that enemies of the state use to topple the government. Banana planters were invited explore alternatives to aerial spraying since they say these are equally effective in ridding crops of pests as seen in Bukidnon and North Cotabato where banana plantations continue to thrive despite compliance to provincial bans.

This is another misinformation brought to Manila by Magaway to gain ears to his demented logic that lies can win the battle for him against aerial spraying. There are at present aerial spraying applications in Bukidnon and Central Mindanao.

A development society cited a recently released study commissioned by the Department of Health that showed traces of pesticides in blood of residents and in air and water samples in Sitio Camocaan, Hagonoy, Davao del Sur. The study recommended a ban on aerial spraying and a shift to organic farming methods to protect public health.”

The DOH in Region XI has disowned any role in the study whose findings were never validated. The alleged environmentalist-toxicologists behind the study are now in the Most Wanted List of residents of Camocaan in Hagonoy who have resented the falsity hurled against the industry that has brought—not threats–but peace and progress and development to their communities.

here are always two sides to a coin in scams THE PRETENDERS BUT IN BAD FAITH AND THE VICTIMS. Let us learn to decipher the real intention of the pretenders, fight a genuine battle on basic human rights and not using it as a mask to earn ill-reputation and money, and fight for the industry who are true defenders & advocates of people’s rights and upon which hundreds of thousands of people depend for survival.

Please stop fraudulent fights for human advocates

Please stop fraudulent fights for human advocates

I empathize with Filipinos who trying to make both ends meet and are aspiring for a better life but whose dreams are hampered by fraudulent human rights advocates.
One of these Filipinos are the residents of sitio Camocaan in Davao del Sur, who are able to meet their needs due, for one, to the help of a banana industry which feeds and employs thousands of people and brings in export revenues of about $700 million annually. This banana industry, however, are attacked by fraudulent advocates who are using strategies to put a ban to the aerial spraying of pesticides.

Residents of Sitio Camocaan asked these fraud advocates to stop degrading their dignity by harping on his still-to- be- reviewed study of their health and environment.

Camocaan’s tribal chieftain, Leonardo Tigao, was vocal in expressing disappointment on studies of Doctors who forgot their obligation as a public servant by doing nothing the past three years to act on their findings that the village’s children are suffering from malnutrition.

The residents were treated as if they and their children are just pests to be studied.

Con advocates say aerial spraying aims to rid banana crops of the Sigatoka fungus but causes proven health and environmental problems since harmful chemicals are indiscriminately applied with no distinction between pests and humans.”

But the Department of Health in Region XI, the Fertilizer and Pesticide Authority (FPA) and a Special Investigating Team created by Mayor Rodrigo Duterte have conducted studies to deny claim of risk to health and environment from aerial spraying.

Development Society clamors to stop what has been called “toxic rain” and committed to launch a signature drive and spread information about the plight of communities affected by aerial spraying through various communities and social networking tools.

In Davao City, residents know what is toxic rain: and they know the lies and black propaganda levelled by development societies against the banana industry – and they will not be fooled.

Development societies pledge to support their quest for human rights, including the right not to be poisoned with hazardous substances, by telling others about their stories and hopes. They do not know what they are talking about. They do not understand that they are putting the residents of sitio camocaan in a desperate plight due to the wrong stand and cause they are fighting for. Please, do more studies, get to know the genuine truth, fight for what is really for the good of the people and stop your fraudulent battle, which are only for your benefit and at the expense of the many.
