00:00From protection against storm surge or flooding whenever it rains heavily,

00:17different wildlife species also inhabit the Bacawan or mangroves.

00:21But inside the Bacawan, do you know that there is a special delicacy that is also found in Tagapalawan?

00:29Come, let's change the game and try the exotic food of Tamilok!

00:39In this 200 hectare mangrove forest in Curon, Palawan,

00:45aside from crabs and tiger prawns,

00:48you can also get a must-try exotic delicacy,

00:53an appetizer that can also be eaten whole.

00:57That doesn't need to be cooked.

01:00As long as it has vinegar, it's sold!

01:06It looks like an eel, but it's not,

01:08because it is considered a mollusk or a type of fish.

01:13Siret, that's the tamilok or woodworm,

01:16which is often found in rotten or dried wood of mangroves or Bacawan.

01:22Adults call it an aphrodisiac.

01:29All year round, tamilok is available to the Bacawan.

01:33And because Bacawan are eager to benefit from it,

01:36the community also cares for them.

01:39In fact, the widest mangrove forest in Curon is located in Barangay Bintuan,

01:45which was declared a Marine Protected Area in 2005.

01:48Mangroves are now prohibited in our Marine Protected Area,

01:53which is a 64-hectare course.

01:56We have a buffer zone and multiple-use zone,

02:00which is what we use.

02:02I'm with the tamilok, Kuya Clive,

02:05who has been living here for several years.

02:13Kuya Clive has already spotted our Bacawan

02:16and told us that we can get tamilok.

02:22This is the Amazon Forest Fuse.

02:25This is what we are looking for.

02:27This is what we are looking for.

02:29Let's go slowly.

02:31Here it is.

02:33We have already spotted a tamilok.

02:35This is the tamilok.

02:37The famous tamilok that we have been looking for for a long time.

02:46This is the fattest tamilok that Kuya Clive caught today.

02:51Let's start with getting the tamilok from the tree he planted.

02:56Here it is.

02:58There's a lot of slime.

03:00It's so fresh from our mangroves.

03:03Let's wash it first in the water.

03:06This tamilok is said to be a perfect match.

03:10This vinegar is also my favorite.

03:17Mmmmm.

03:19They said that it has a strong taste.

03:23If you chew it, you will taste the sweet flavor of the tamilok.

03:31We have seen the benefits of taking care of the Bacawan.

03:36If you are going to visit Palawan,

03:38come here, surround yourself with Bacawan,

03:40and of course, taste the tamilok to support the local livelihood.

03:43For GMA Integrated News, I'm Martin Avier,

03:47Changing the Game!
