IPAMANA, AYAW IPAMINA!✊🏻📢
Gunit Abuyog stands in unwavering solidarity with the residents of MacArthur, Leyte in their collective resistance against the black sand mining operations of the MacArthur Iron Project Corporation (MIPC).
MacArthur is a former barangay of Abuyog, bound to us by shared history, kinship, and struggle—an injury to its land and people is an injury to our own.
Black sand mining ravages coastlines, disrupts marine ecosystems, and strips fisherfolk and coastal communities of their livelihoods—all for corporate profit.
This destructive extraction robs the youth of a sustainable future, driving displacement and deepening exploitation. We reject projects that sacrifice people and the environment for profit. We stand firm in defense of land, livelihood, and life.
