What Happened to Calawagan River Resort?
Malaking palaisipan pa rin sa akin ang mga nangyayari sa pinagmamalaking Calawagan River Resort ng mga taga-Paluan. Ang alam ko ay bida ito ng mga taga-Paluan kahit saan man sila pumunta sa angkin nitong ganda at maipagmamalaking linis ng tubig.
Umuwi ako last October 17, 2008 sa Paluan at nagstay ako ng halos 5 araw. 1st day pa lang ay pumunta na ako ng Calawagan and look what I have seen!
Ang daan... As usual, may parte pa ring baku-bako.
Ang maliit na parang tulay na ito sa Calawagan ay nananatiling may uka ang ilalim kaya kalahati lang ng daan nito ang pwedeng gamitin.
Walang tubig na bagong pool... Pambata at pangmatanda.
May harang ang hanging bridge....
Butas na parte ng hanging bridge...
Tinutubuan na ng damo ang matagal nang hindi na nadadaanang hanging bridge..
May barb wire na bridge... Bawal kasing dumaan dahil dapok na...
Walang lamang old swimming pool...
Ito po ay pawang mga obserbasyon ko lamang sa aking ilang araw na pag-uwi sa Paluan. Hindi po ito paninira kundi konting pamumuna lamang sa dapat sanay maganda at kapuri-puring Calawagan River Resort.
Ikaw? Anong masasabi mo?

The Calawagan Mountain Resort
Paluan, Occidental Mindoro, Jan. 24, 1998 - The Calawagan River in Paluan was adjudged the cleanest river in the country for the second straight year. The award was handed to Mayor Abelardo Pangilinan by President Ramos at the Luneta Grandstand a few weeks ago.
Calawagan River met the two major criteria for the award: physical condition and community support system. First Lady Ming Ramos is the project's honorary chairman.
The river is in Sitio Calawagan, 20 minutes away from the Paluan town hall. At the entrance of Alipauy is a Mangyan community composed of 50 families, who were moved from their original settlement upstream to deter pollution and destruction of the river source.
The Mangyans are resettled in a one-hectare lot appropriated by the town, complete with a one- room, multi-grade school. Potable water is piped in from the river.
To help defray the expenses of caretakers, including the salary of a Mangyan forest ranger, the Calawagan Resort was set up for picnics and public celebrations. The entrance fee of P15 per person goes into a kitty for all the expenses, including maintenance and salaries.

Iligtas ang Calawagan River Resort at Mt. Calavite!
Upang siguro ay lubusang ma-protektahan ang ganda at yaman ng kalikasan sa bayan ng Paluan, lalung-lalo na ang pamosong Bundok Calavite at Calawagan River (na makikita sa larawan sa gawing kanan),- ay pinagtibay ng Sangguniang Bayan (SB) nito ang Resolution No. 16; Series of 2008.Pinagtibay ito sa pamamagitan ng SB session noong Mayo 19, 2008. Matingkad na binabanggit dito ang “vehement objection ..... to any large scale operations...” na maaaring i-propose (o buksan) sa kanilang munisipalidad. Ang resolusyon ay isinulong ni Hon. Michael O. Diaz na unanimously approved naman ng SB. Attested ito ni Municipal Vice-Mayor at Presiding Officer Edgar P. Barrientos at inaprobahan ni Mayor Abelardo S. Pangilinan ng nasabing bayan.
Bagama’t ito ay isang resolution lang (as we all know and isang reso ay temporary lamang), maganda na rin itong take-off sa mga anti-mining moves doon. Kumbaga, may ulo na ng pakong pupukpukin.
Mayroon nang uumpisahan sa pag-uusap. Sabi nga sa isang bahagi ng dokumento: ”...large-scale mining operations would endanger the environmental integrity of the whole municipality to the detriment of the present and future generations of Palueños...”
Maliban kina Diaz, Barrientos at Pangilinan, lumagda din sa resolusyon sina Hon. Demosthenes R. Viaña, Antonio L. Tinaliga, Willard F. Sanchez, Joemarie T. Velandria, Melvin T. Tagumpay at ABC President Lynette C. Torreliza.
