Global Witness: Philippines - The communities devastated by a new mega-airport

[@JesusCaragdag]

Ganyan ang realidad ng buhay merong napeperwisyo merong nakikinabang!!! simple lang ang tanong ilan ang naperwisyo ilan ang makikinabang?!?

[@ragnarokorigin-ht6zc]

sana mag trending to, hindi rin nababalita to sa main stream medias.. sad pilipinas

[@rab3492]

Hindi talaga nag trending yan kasi wala naman violations ginawa ang SMC. Bago ginawa project na yan nagkaroon muna ng Environment and Social Impact Assessment.

[@emmy7437]

Im sad na nahihirapan sila but inorder for our country to grow we need this airport sana mabayaran nlng sila nga maayos

[@leobautista9118]

My pag babago at my mawawalan Ng hanap buhay Masaya Kyo yng iba malungkot

[@BenjaminJunatas]

By comparison how much taxes contributed by 700 families to the govt. When mega airport is in full operation, thousands of job will be created and hundreds of millions of pesos of tax payment will be contributed to the national government.

[@i6eta325]

Absolutely true

[@rollgali5292]

never saw this in our mainstream media and even other platforms,,, one thing is for sure, a new development always destroys the old,,,😒😒

[@rl8571]

When the price is destruction of a highly reliable food source is just plain arrogance.

[@paquitoignacio3449]

Hope this people livelihood of fishing affected by the airport construction will financial compensation from the government

[@rab3492]

Hindi naman mga fisherfolks affected sa project. ang mga affected ay ang mga tao nagmamay ari ng fishponds na hindi naman mga taga Bulakan, Bulacan

[@ninahintermann4379]

In any improvement, there is casualties, and I feel sorry for the victims.

[@CrisostomoIbarra3835]

Filipinos electing billionaires to government and expecting compassionate rule from them. Crazy. The richer a person is, the less compassionate they become. Craziness and Ingnorance.

[@tukmol1589]

This is not an improvement as many says. Why built a new airport instead of renovating existing ones? There are 3 major airports surrounding the Manila Bay. This is an overkill. However, SMC is looking at this as perpetual money maker, just like the tollways they built. SMC must pay the families affected by this airport.

[@joyhernandez5256]

Where is the conservation concept here? We should be building in a responsible way.

[@DD-wb7lw]

Needs of the many will always outweigh the needs of the few. Mas madami ang makikinabang sa lugar na yan bilang airport. Mas mag develop at madaming trabaho ang magenerate para sa mas malaking lugar at hindi lang para sa iilang nakatira sa lugar na yan. Wag tayong maging makasarili at unahin natin ang nakakarami.

[@politicalbandit3904]

You said it all 👍🏽.

[@ngatupomani5376]

This is just a spit away from clark, why the need for another airport?

[@BootsFrancisco-vn6bk]

​@@ngatupomani5376Hey f you want the Philippines to grow from poverty support as Filipino citizen to improve our standard and quality of life,by how? Good infrastructure,..more work to come for tambays and or jobless,..see the result first before we complain,..knowing it is for our progress,..it willbenefit us filipinos

[@jac0007]

Why build an airport in the middle of nowhere…no roads and far from NLEX …Clark is existing, right beside NLEx and only 1hr from Manila

[@makiavelli6101]

I do everything I can to avoid MNL these last few years; it's a nightmare to go through that terminal. A new airport is necessary.

[@msjppagente8575]

Don’t impede the progress of the country. Go Philippines go..

[@travelw.b12oo3]

Thats the desaster of development

[@phillychannel394]

Ibinoto nyo kasi e kapalit ng P500 - P1,000.

[@Sammyduo214]

Calling SMC ano po ang comment at masabi niyo sa video na ito? we want also to air their side if they can answer this. yun lang

[@silverioluzaran4525]

noon pa yan lobog na wag nyong isisi sa airport

[@pinkvelvet3865]

Correct that San Miguel Corporation the owner is super GREEDY!!!!!

[@Spectersantos]

I am sympathise for these people. However, the airport will bring more prosperity and strengthen the economy and improving lives of the Philippines. A modern airport isn’t just a transportation hub-it’s a gateway for progress. By building this airport, we can create thousands of jobs during construction and long after, from operations to logistics and retail. It will attract more tourists, boosting local businesses, hospitality, and cultural tourism, which directly supports families and communities. Moreover, improved air connectivity means easier access to education, medical care, and economic opportunities, especially for remote areas. It fosters global trade, encourages foreign investments, and positions the Philippines as a competitive player in the global economy. This project is more than infrastructure-it’s an investment in the future of our nation and its people.

Ano pangalan ng pogi?

[@storybookwonders7516]

Eto ang isyu na dapat pinag aaksayahan ng panahon ng mga mukhang perang mambabatas natin sa tuwadkom.

[@Dolyar]

bahain yang lugar na yan ewan ko bakit dyan nagpatayo ng bagong airport hehehe

[@politicalbandit3904]

It’s gonna bring jobs. Sacrifices need to be made, but the best is yet to come for the progress of the country.

[@rab3492]

Matagal na na issue ito na hindi naman totoong nangyari.

[@frankcuritana8159]

These people are unappreciative of the new construction of the new airport especially the benefits it will bring to so many citizens of the community creating many thousands of jobs and besides dredging the dikes deeper and raising the roads higher avoiding the frequency of flooding they’ve been experiencing every year especially when the water levels rise due to rainfall.Negative criticisms are not uncommon to pessimistic numbers of people living in fear of progress and success especially for better future generations.

[@Kai-id1ti]

Sana mawalan ka ng bahay at kabuhayan pag may highway na ginawa sa bahay nyo tapos sasabihin ko sayo unappreciative mo ano payag ka?

[@paquitoignacio3449]

I wish president Marcos jr. will intervene or at least help this people financial help to survive with airport construction.

[@glenclarkchidley3637]

[@elmosegovia6892]

Scripted 😂

[@msjppagente8575]

We need better bigger infrastructures to move the country ahead of others. These people who complained about their livelihood ruins are living in delusional world. We are not living in the medieval time. Let the Philippines moves on speedily to better the economy. You know why investors does not favor Philippines to do business with because we lack infrastructure. So people shut the hell up. Just be happy and think outside the box if you want to better your life and the life of your family.

[@tineejohnston9737]
