Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Undersecretary Claire Castro on Thursday, August 6, responded to the critics of the United States-led Pax Silica project in New Clark City, Tarlac, saying she hopes that they would be given verified information on the matter on how the project can benefit the whole country.

This, after civil groups BAYAN and International League of Peoples' Struggle (ILPS) launched separate petitions rejecting Pax Silica, one of which amassed over 387,000 verified signatures on the change.org website. (Video courtesy of RTVM)

00:00Mayroon pong separate petitions ang groups like Bayan and the International League of People's Struggles
00:05and one of their petitions has over 387,000 verified signatures on change.org.
00:11Ano pong komento ng palace dito na ganito yung volume of criticisms and apprehension from the people?
00:17Siguro mas maganda lamang po na mabigyan sila ng tamang informasyon,
00:20kung paano ang paksilika na gagawin at kung paano ito makakabuti sa ating bansa.
00:28Kasi ang nakikita po natin sa ngayon, marami po sa SOCMED, na puro negatibo ang naipapakita.
00:35Katulad na lamang po na maaari mga paalis ang mga magsasaka sa nasabing lugar.
00:40Pero ang sabi nga natin, year 2019 ay na-allocate na po ang 3,500 na buildable zones.
00:49So yung 3,500, hindi na po ito dapat na sinasaka.
00:53Meron pong mga lugar na para sa ating mga magsasaka sa nasabing lugar.
00:58So siguro tama lang na pagbibigay ng informasyon sa ating mga kababayan, sa mga lahat ng pumirma dyan.
01:05We hope na nung pumirma kayo ay alam nyo ang detalye patungkol dito.
01:11Hindi sila muwang, hindi sila mangmang sa kung ano ang paksili.
01:23Sana alam nila talaga kung ano ang nilalaman ng agreement na ito.
