Dear All,
Everyone who has gone to SAGADA, PULAG, IFUGAO,and other places in the
Cordillera -- will notice that BAGUIO has LOST its CHARM--it is crowded, it
is polluted, water is scarce, it is full of squatters even in the watershed
areas and it is HOt The pine trees are so choked with smog. Session Road is
no longer leisurely cool walk -- it's like being in Cubao (okey -
exaggeration but i really hate the billboards up there -- it's so
cluttered, an eyesore).
Hopefully Sagada won't follow suit---but it's getting to be commercial up
there too. Maybe by signing up, you will help RECLAIM BAGUIO's lost beauty
and stop the degradation of all the other places we all love in the
Northern region--so, how about signing this petition?
PETITION for BAGUIO:
We believe that the City of Baguio is culturally, environmentally and
aesthetically unique and different from other cities in the Philippines.
We believe that Baguio is the nerve center of four rich and diverse
cultures: the Filipino culture in general, the highland Cordilleran
culture, the lowland Ilocano culture, and the heritage culture brought
about by the Americans during the early 20th Century.
We believe that in the past two decades, the City of Baguio has experienced
a substantial degradation of its unique culture, environment and art.
We believe that the approval of certain politicians with no respect for the
aesthetics and the environment of Baguio to put up concrete structures such
as malls, overpasses and flyovers only worsens Baguio City's lamentable
decay as the "City of Pines."
We believe that this overdevelopment (as they have termed it but is
actually not) and resulting pollution have to stop.
We believe that due to its unique history and blend of cultures, Baguio can
be to the Philippines as Barcelona is to Spain, Chiang Mai is to Thailand,
and San Francisco is to the United States: a main center of arts, culture,
philosophy, education, tourism, sustainable development and environmental
awareness.
We believe, therefore, that the City of Baguio deserves to be declared a
"Special Heritage Zone," so that the degradation brought about by
overdevelopment can be minimized and gradually controlled.
We believe that Baguio City's heritage as a center of culture and
environmental awareness is a valuable asset not just to the Philippines,
but also to the world.
We now respectfully call on the residents of Baguio and the Filipino people
to sign this humble petition, and for the local and national governments
concerned to implement and declare Special Heritage status on this unique mountain
City as soon as possible, preferably before the Baguio Centennial in 2009,
so no further destruction on its limited cultural, environmental and
aesthetic resources may continue.
Please add your name to the list and send this message to as many people as
possible. Please do not! just click "forward". Instead highlight the text

Thank you.
