00:00 In other news, some residents of Palawan were sent home
00:04 against a house that is a "permission of entry" to their homes.
00:08 The house was denied and it was attacked by Jonathan Andal, ex-club.
00:13 There was a crowd of residents protesting to block the way for trucks
00:23 to the house of the Ipilan Nickel Corporation in Brooks Point, Palawan.
00:27 But the security of the house did not immediately agree
00:30 until the two groups started fighting.
00:33 Later, the two groups were beaten and hit.
00:38 In another angle of our camera, we can see the left-right side of the house.
00:56 You are not allowed to enter the house!
01:00 There were bloodstains of security guards and ex-rallyists.
01:06 There were police on standby in the area but they were able to finish the commotion.
01:11 The law is not for the weak!
01:14 Do not shout!
01:16 For the residents of Palawan, the fight against the house was personal.
01:22 They feel the effects of this from their farm in the mountains
01:26 to the fish they catch in the sea.
01:29 The fish there is almost gone.
01:31 We were just swimming by and we caught two pieces of fish.
01:36 Now we are talking about building this house and you are not allowing us to do so.
01:40 If our land is not being used for our use,
01:44 we will feed them with nickel.
01:47 If they are alive, they will eat nickel.
01:49 If we are not, we will eat nickel.
01:52 The guards were also allowed to build a fence on the side of the road.
01:58 Here, the residents were forced to sign the "Cease and Desist Order" against the house
02:03 issued by the Brooks Point LGU and the NCIP of Mimaropa or National Commission on Indigenous People.
02:09 But when the residents were able to leave, the house was also removed and the operation was continued.
02:15 We have a legal basis on why it was removed.
02:18 It is clear from their rally permit that they will do it peacefully.
02:22 They should not be barred.
02:24 They are the ones who initiated the construction.
02:27 According to the Nickel Corporation, the NCIP's "Cease and Desist Order" is not yet a final and executory
02:32 because they are still appealing it to the ANBANC.
02:35 The LGU's "Cease and Desist Order" does not have a visa
02:38 because they submitted all the requirements under the Citizens' Charter for the Mayor's Permit.
02:44 They also deny that their house is polluted by the sea and the land.
02:49 IPILAN is a responsible mining company.
02:52 Nickel is one of the main components in doing projects that will prevent climate change,
03:00 that will prevent global warming.
03:02 IPILAN! NICKEL! NICKEL!
03:05 In the rally, seven were injured while the guards were 12.
03:10 They were the ones who planned to file a complaint against each other.
03:14 They do not know the law.
03:17 It is sad to see that you are being forced to leave your own country just for money.
03:27 It is wrong to say that we do not follow the law.
03:30 We are portrayed as being so evil,
03:33 while this mining project is a partnership between the national government.
03:38 Our partnership is with the national government.
03:40 If we are not compliant with the law, they will stop us.
03:45 In the Pongmount Matalingahan, where Kinoy-Castong-Minaha is located,
03:48 it is an ancestral domain and protected area.
03:51 That is why the local government decided to do so.
03:54 For now, it seems that no one wants to lose in the fight against this issue.
03:59 And what they see as a solution,
04:01 is that the national government should help solve this problem.
04:05 From Brooks Point, Palawan, for GMA Integrated News,
04:08 Jonathan Andal, reporting for 24 Hours.
