1. Our gadgets, laptops, and computers are made of parts that have been developed through mining. Knowing the widespread use of mined products and materials, do you think that Philippines should advocate mining?

2. Research on the mandates of government regulating agencies, such as the DENR, in the mining industry. Do you think that these agencies are effective in the implementation of their regulations? Do you have other suggestions to these agencies so that they can better monitor the mining activities of the big- scale companies?
