Young people protest vs Bulacan landfill.
SAN JOSE DEL MONTE City, April 25, 2012—Hundreds of youth protesters called for the closure of the V.G. Landfill in Bulacan in a rally held last April 20.
A motorcade was held from two different districts and merged at one of the gates of the landfill for an ecumenical service.
Fr. Anacleto Ignacio, parish priest of San Pedro Apostol in Brgy. Tungkong Mangga who is also president of “Kilusang Tutol sa V.G. Puyat Landfill at ibang LGUs Inc. (KILOS)” said their protest was held because of the failure of the provincial and city government and DENR to close the landfill despite repeated calls for its shutdown.
Protesters made a human barricade at one of the gates to stop any garbage truck in entering the said facility.
Some 300 young people from the newly formed Student and Youth Network Oppose (SAY NO) to V.G. Puyat Landfill were among the people who joined the barricade.
