ENDOSULFAN = PROBLEM

Magandang Hatinggabi..


Maaring lahat satin ay narinig na ang sinapit ng barkong MV Princess of the Stars.
Ito ang barkong lumubog noong hunyo sa kasagsagan ng bagyong frank.
Marami ang nawala at nasayang na mga buhay sa trahedya na ito.
Marami ang mga naapektuhang mga pamilya ng mga pumanaw.

Ngunit subalit at datapwat, hindi lamang sila ang mamromroblema sa trahedyang ito. Madadamay din ang mga mangingisda at mga isda dahil sa napagalaman na nagkakarga ang barko ng endosulfan isang substansya na dapat ay gagamitin ng del monte philippines sa kanilang pineapple plantations. Ang endosulfan ay makasasama sa tao, maaapektuhan din ang karagatan natin dahil malalason din ito. Sinasabi naman na maayos ang pagkakasilid nito sa mga lalagyanan nila. Ngunit maraming mga eksperto kabilang ang European Union na nagbabala na kahit wala pang masamang epekto ngayon ay sa onting panahon ay magbabago na ito at mananalasa na ang masamang epekto nito.
Mabuti nalang at may mga hakbang na ginagawa upang malutasan na ang problema nito. May plano na upang alisin ang barko at ang mga kemikal nito.


haii dapat lng nmn noh kundi madame maapektuhan..
haii maxado aku makata ngaun kaya tagalog..

ang gobyerno ay gumagawa na ng action na tanggalin yung mga chemical na yun galing sa barko pero dapat nilang i-check ang tubig kung saan lumubog yung barko kung may natapon bang chemical doon kasi bka kumalat ito at maging sanhi pa ng mga sakit at ikamatay pa ng mga tao.

Yes, this is a really big problem. If the chemical does spread, not only will it affect the environment, particularly the ocean, but also the economy of the said place. Fishing is their main livelihood. Although, test results revealed that endusulfan has not contaminated the water, people now are afraid to buy food products coming from the nearby area. Because of this, the people there are now suffering from the effects of fear and non-marketability of their products.

If the chemical is not prevented from spilling and spreading, it will affect the marine life, and at the same time, the whole population of the area. It will take several years for it to be cleaned up. At least, currently, actions are being made to prevent this from happening.

Removing the cargo and re-floating the ship is not an easy task, though. This process takes time because the government wants to ensure that the toxic will not contaminate the area. However, the government must still act fast! :)

Dapat lang talaga na gumawa ng paraan ang gobyerno pati na rin ang Sulpicio Lines dahil napakalaking epekto sa mga tao lalo na sa mga mangingisdang naroon ang trahedyang nangyari sa kanilang barko.. Nasisira ang ating environment (mga yamang dagat) dahil sa endosulfan na ito, dahilan upang mapahamak ang mga isda at mawalan ng kabuhayan ang mga tao doon. Dapat kumilos agad at ng mabilis ang gobyerno para kahit hindi man mawala ay at least mabawasan man lang ang mga o magiging epekto ng endosulfan..

Pero it's good to hear that the government is doing something.. at least..

the chemicals inside the ship must be removed quickly. if the chemical leaks into the sea: it will destroy most of the marine life in Romblon.

This problem should really be solved because a lot of people are suffering from it.

It's good to know that the government is doing something about it. I can just imagine what the citizens of Romblon are going through. I hope the government acts quick so they could all get back to their normal life.

ENDOSULFAN+BOAT UNDERWATER=WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION !

Not only marine life could be killed with this kind of weapon, you could also kill humans by making them eat the seafood caught in the seas with this Weapon of Mass Destruction! But they are doing something right now to get the containers containing the super-duper-ultra-hyper-mega-ultimate weapon of mass destruction. But the news said it would take at least a month or so.

Kung hindi nila naayos ito kaagad, maraming isda mamatay sa mga kemikal at kung namatay ang mga isda maraming mangingisda mababawasan ng kita.

they should do something in this problem quickly because the chemicals will destroy the marine life.
