Re: Letter from Gov Padilla to Duterte on Dec 9
Club--published by Mining Watch Canada, anti mining, anti capitalist globalist feminist ---need I go on. As to the piety of President Duterte, look up some of his speeches, enough said.
The Catholic Church, especially in South and Central America is a proponent of Liberation Theology, social justice warrior proponents a hair's breadth away from Marxism if not simply Marxism as many would say. I would not denegrate their fight for the common people--many clergy have died and anyone willing to stand fast for lifting people out of poverty and political oppression is to be admired. But that is the ideology of the people who wrote the letter and Mining Watch Canada is publishing that for it's base. We hope you do not donate, sense you do not.
Note the sentence in the letter about causing divisions in the community, aimed at large scale mining. The truth of course is the opposite. Most people in and around Didipio support Oceana's FTAA renewal, obviously because of the economic and social benefit. They have now experienced both sides, with and without the mining income. Guess which one they like best.
Mr. Duterte is also aware of the job losses in the U.S.; due to the ultra left policies of President Biden; axing the Keystone Pipeline etc. opening the southern bornder to drug cartels-it goes on and on. Duterte is very conservative about the economy and drugs, that you can be assured of. IMO
