Sa SONA: #DapatTaoMunaHindiMina! #DapatAMMBisabatasNA!

Dear friends,

We are launching a nationwide letter barrage campaign for  the 10 point Human Rights Agenda on Mining, endorsed by different human rights, environmental, indigenous peoples and women’s’ groups and which we aim to reach President Benigno Aquino III, the two Houses of Congress and leaders of LGUs.

We would like to invite everyone to join us on July 23, 2014 in this nationwide letter sending campaign before the coming State of the Nation Address –SONA of PNoy and the opening of Congress (July 28, 2014). The SA SONA: DAPAT TAO MUNA HINDI MINA! DAPAT AMMB ISABATAS NA! campaign objective is for the 10 Human Rights Agenda on Mining to reach PNoy and leaders of our government and register our call to end large scale mining and prioritize the legislation of the Alternative Minerals Management Bill.

You may also print out the Appeal Letter for sign-on in your respective areas and fax to the contact numbers of concerned Government agencies indicated below.
