On December 17, the Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte ordered the uprooting of the Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) eggplants at the field test site inside the University of the Philippines-Mindanao campus in Mintal.
Is it really harmful to our health? Why does the government or some academic institutions is pushing for genetically-modified plants?
Personally, I’m not in favor of any genetically-modified plants. Why can’t the government support or promote indigenous practices instead of the multi-national companies? Farmers have survived for years using traditional methods.

Just one stroke and she’s done!
Whew, it’s always like than when covering Presidential sorties in the province. It would eat most of your time on the road or waiting for the President before capturing what we call “the decisive moment” in just a fraction of second.
A creative way of drying up floor mops along the street in Davao City. Making some things neatly done even if they are messy one
