00:00Some prominent mining companies were awarded the Presidential Mineral Industry Environmental Award

00:08by President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.

00:11His achievements were recognized for their responsible and safe mining activities.

00:18Clayzel Pardilla, for Sento ng Balita, live.

00:24Yes, Aljo, President Ferdinand R. Marcos, Jr.

00:29These awards were awarded to companies that showed outstanding performance in the mining industry.

00:3813 mining companies were awarded the 2023 Presidential Mineral Industry Environmental Award

00:45in Malacanang this morning.

00:47President R. Marcos, Jr. said that mining companies were responsible and safe

00:52in the field of nature, health, and communities.

00:57These awardees have shown commendable support for our vision for the mining sector.

01:03You continue to invest in environmental technologies and adopt best practices

01:08that go even beyond compliance, from pioneering reforestation efforts

01:13to utilizing more sustainable extraction techniques.

01:17And, of course, your meaningful contributions to the host and neighboring communities

01:22through education, health care, and livelihood programs are truly inspiring.

01:28The government values responsible mining in the face of rising demand for clean energy

01:35and the promotion of the use of electronic vehicles.

01:38In 2023, mining production in tin, copper, and nickel reached Php 160 billion.

01:47The contribution of the industry to gross domestic product reached 0.5%.

01:54In addition, President R. Marcos pushed the rationalization of the mining fiscal regime

02:00or the demand for higher taxes from mining industries

02:05and the promotion of more responsible mining.

02:09Environment Department Secretary Toni Yulo-Loyzaga assured

02:13that the country's mining industries will be strictly monitored.

02:17When was the last time the two mining industries, Camarines Norte and Cagayan,

02:23were shut down by the DNR?

02:25When was the last time their mining permit was violated

02:28and Chinese foreign workers admitted that the agency was responsible for it?

02:34It's certainly a concern.

02:36And so we work very closely with our other partners,

02:39not just, I would say, the local authorities,

02:46but certainly with our partners in the Department of Defense.

02:51And of course, DTI and DOLE, we'd like to have closer cooperation

02:57to see whether there's really a document that is correct.

03:04The agency is using satellites to monitor mining industries

03:08and is closely coordinating with other government agencies.

03:12The case against them is being prepared.

03:15Secretary Yulo-Loyzaga also announced

03:17that the payment of the Loss and Damage Fund will be completed.

03:22It was made by the United Nations Climate Change Conference

03:26which is far from the fund and will provide financial assistance

03:30to countries affected by climate change.

03:34It was led by 26 countries,

03:37and the Philippines was chosen as the host of the Loss and Damage Fund Board.

03:42In December, the guidelines are expected to be completed

03:45and it is its priority to give funds to countries

03:49that are considered vulnerable to climate change.

03:52That's the latest from Malacanang.

03:54Back to you, Aljo.

03:56Thank you very much, Leysel Pardilio.
