BRIEF                         

Indigenous peoples and other support groups strongly oppose the signing of the bilateral loan agreement to fund the Kaliwa Dam Project, one of the major infrastructure projects under the “build, build, build” program of Duterte’s administration.

                        

The scheduled signing of contract between President Duterte and China President Xi Jinping manifests the manipulative motives of China and Duterte’s ignorance to the concerns and pleas of the affected stakeholders.
