Sometimes, the country’s greatest treasures grow quietly in the forest.
In Masungi, a mature narra supports an entire web of life around it. Its roots help stabilize soil, its canopy cools the forest floor, and its branches provide shelter for birds, insects, and other wildlife.
In landscapes rich in biodiversity, these quiet giants help keep ecosystems alive and connected — reminding us that some of the country’s greatest treasures are already growing around us.
Sign the petition to relocate Vena Group’s wind project away from Masungi Georeserve and the Sierra Madre.

SB19’s JOURNEY MIRRORS THE EVOLUTION OF P-POP ITSELF. ONCE UNDERESTIMATED, NOW UNDENIABLE.
From contained arenas to open skies—they didn’t follow the path.
THEY BUILT IT, FILLED IT AND MADE HISTORY ON IT. 🇵🇭

REMEMBER THIS PASTE FROM BACK IN THE DAY?
This is starch glue paste. In the Philippines, this paste commonly uses cassava starch, cornstarch, or flour mixed with water which is a go-to for school projects, paper crafts, and office work. This cornstarch-based glue was mainly used by 90s kids.
It usually came in a tube that looked similar to a toothpaste. But don’t get confused with the two, these pastes usually came in vibrant colors like red, green, and yellow.
Back then, even though these paste was cheap, not everyone could afford to buy. Most families had to prioritize essentials, and many grew up in using the alternative way which is using cooked rice as a paste.
As time has changed and products have evolved, today’s youth may not be familiar anymore with these tube pastes. Most students now use modern glues from well-known brands like Elmer’s and HBW.
Whether you used the starch glue paste or the cooked rice as an alternative method, those school projects are a core memory for many Filipinos and 90s kids.

“I think this—and what I believe and which I want to prove—that if we conserve all of this, I feel it can be maneuvered. That we can alleviate the poverty of the whole community. Not by putting up buildings and malls and swimming pools and killing the forest. People think that economy [equates to] putting up buildings, quarry.”
– One of our beloved mentors, environmentalist and former Environment Secretary Gina Lopez, during her visit to Masungi Georeserve in August 2016

Hi @Microsoft@MicrosoftPH can you please help me? I cannot access my Outlook via web. I had the same issue 2 or 3 weeks ago and everything was okay until now.
Dear BIR and Sen. Recto,
Pwede po bang hindi muna kami magbayad ng tax o kaya huwag ninyo muna kaming kaltasan ng tax? Aba, hindi biro ang magtrabaho tapps iba pala ang makikinabang sa pera namin. Yung mga corrupt families ang singilin ninyo muna bago kami, okay?
Wednesday, day 5 of this insane monsoon rain that won't stop. This is very traumatizing! We haven't recovered from last year's typhoons' wrath. We really never learned our lesson, huh?
