The local government must act fast with the help of NGOs and the DOT.<BR/><BR/>If I remember right, repairing a section would cost P100,000.

Farming has been too expensive as well.<BR/><BR/>If we don't act now, we could lose this treasure forever.mschumey07https://www.blogger.com/profile/04104105681290452414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15647147.post-61534773692188022932007-08-27T14:20:00.000+08:002007-08-27T14:20:00.000+08:00I have not yet visited the rice terraces, but woul...I have not yet visited the rice terraces, but would be much more inclined to do so (and tell my tourist friends)if I knew that the local and national government were implementing some sort of sustainable eco-tourism initiative.Boyd Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15140107322784588284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15647147.post-44786762376398784962007-08-26T03:38:00.000+08:002007-08-26T03:38:00.000+08:00Hi!

The Local Government should come up with an action plan to address the issue. Maybe the HCS could facilitate in the conduct of a strategic planning in Banaue.<BR/><BR/>Franz Ranches(www.franzranches.blogspot.com)franz_ranches@yahoo.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10758576104504189991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15647147.post-45148971956537907222007-08-25T00:53:00.000+08:002007-08-25T00:53:00.000+08:00Hi Sidney!
