“Parang nagagalit po na hindi ko po maintindihan ang sarili ko po. Naawa din po ako sa lugar. Bakit ginanito po nila?” Erlinda Capistrano, one of the residents in the area, said in the documentary.

“Itong lugar na ito, bangin daw ito dati. Pero ngayon halos napatag na ‘yung lupa kasi tinambakan nila nang tinambakan nang tinambakan ng basura,” David narrated. (YouTube/I-Witness)

Wala pang opisyal mula sa People’s Republic of China ang direktang nagsabi nito ngunit kumakalat na ang naratibong ito sa provincial level ng China. | via #MOJO Jazz Paredes
