MANILA, Philippines — President Aquino orders an investigation into illegal logging operations in flood-ravaged areas of Mindanao and the prosecution of those involved.

Cover the entire country and flood violators with charges for crime against   the environment and the people.

Likewise, the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP)  orders its fighters to attack companies that destroy the country’s natural resources and to “arrest” landlords who block land reform.

Shadow government is mad, too, and will “shadow” greedy violators for revenge. Hala, diyan  na po sila!

Those who continued violating his anti-logging directive will face the full brunt of the law, the President warns in TV interviews with broadcasters Mike Enriquez and Linda Jumilla.

Angry P-Noy join Angry Birds in battle vs illegal loggers and poachers. Bakbakan na!

For  how could those tons of logs that rolled down  the flooded mountains and rammed houses in Iligan and Cagayan de Oro at the height of storm “Sendong” be explained? P-Noy asks.

Res ipsa loquitor. And may their victims rest in peace. Tsk-tsk.

“Heads will roll” once the Department of Environment and Natural Resources submits a complete  report on logging permits and violators, vows newly installed ARMM Governor Mujiv Hataman.

Yes, let them roll like fallen logs, too. Hatawin mo na, Hataman!

In a statement on  the eve of its 43rd anniversary, the CPP says,” We must interdict and dismantle enterprises that violate the laws and regulations of the people’s government and destroy the environment and agricultural production, plunder natural resources and prevent land reform and national industrialization.”

Clear warning. Clear danger.

The AFP confirms insurgents’ plan to commit more atrocities against “soft targets” like mining, logging and agro-industrial firms.

Beware! Harsh judgment vs “soft tragets” possible.

Meanwhile, concerned sectors call for massive tree-planting and reforestation natiowide.

No more delay, no more ningas cogon. Tanim na!
