CAUGHT RED-HANDED. Authorities find 7 40-foot containers carrying municipal waste from Australia, meant to be used by Holcim as fuel to make cement, at the Mindanao International Container Terminal. Photo from the Bureau of Customs, Philippine authorities said more container vans of garbage from abroad recently arrived in the country through the Mindanao International Container Terminal in Tagoloan, Misamis Oriental.
Raedwulf Geollegue, officer-in-charge of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Region 10's Air and Water Section, said in a letter to the Environment Management Bureau in the region and the MICT that the contents cannot be easily recycled or separated for recycling. Geollegue, however, said it remains unclear if the broker received the proper clearance to bring in the waste as the representative did not"confirm nor deny having such clearance."
