Mamatay kalang wala parin concrete solution diyan.hehehe…Reply Nilo Lancita saysJanuary 19, 2011 at 9:43 amH’wag sana kayong mag ningas kogon. Ang coal power plant na yan, maganda lang yan sa una, kung baga pang display lang yan. Pero ang long term effect nyan ay makikita sa mga apo ninyo hindi lang sa Iloilo, mas lalo na doon sa pinagminahan at pinag linisan ng kunwaring malinis na coal fuel na iyan. Kung gusto ng Iloilo na umunlad para sa kinabukasan, invest na sa mailinis na enerhiya ngayon para sa pangkamunduhang kapakanan. Mga investors lang sa coal fired power plant na yan ang yayaman. Meron din sigurong mga karagdagang trabaho pero ang kadalasan ay dati ding emplyado ng patay este panay electric ang lilipat dyan. Panandaliang lunas lang iyan sa kisis at darating ang araw na mas malaki ang krisis at ang pagurong ng Iloilo pag luma na ang coal fired power plant na yan.Reply ian saysApril 9, 2011 at 8:14 am@ Nilo Lancita: Maghanap ka ng investor na mag iinvest sa sinasabi mong renewable energy.or ikw na lang mag invest.Reply Peter Talabucon saysOctober 23, 2010 at 8:39 amGabatun na sila aplikante sa iloilo? gusto gusto ko gid mag ubra sa power plant nga ina..Reply annie saysJuly 16, 2010 at 3:16 amMas lalo tayong madaling mamatay pagwalang pagkain at trabaho kaya Welcome investors to Iloilo. Coal Power plant is badly needed mabuti sana tutulong ang mga protestors sa bayad sa PECO na napakamahal at kaya nga nagaalisan at hesitant sila magtayo ng bussiness sa Iloilo dahil ang mahal ng Kuryente diyan sa Iloilo. Kaya ang Sulotion Coal Power Plant para maraming Trabaho ang papasok at maraming mga Ilonggo ang maka trabaho, hindi protesta na walang matulong sa kabuhayan ng mga taga Iloilo.kaya pala progressive na ang maraming mga bansa sa mundo pati cebu at manila dahil sa Coal plant. but hindi sila nagprotesta doon cebu 3 talaga. nasa lugar lang yan kong pano nila linisin at alagaan.Ngayon na ang time Iloilo upang kayo ay bumangun ulit bilac Economic Hub din ng bansa isulong nyo yan at huwag padadala ng ganito ganito. I know Iloilo is very potential for bussiness.Reply Roger saysJuly 16, 2010 at 3:03 amPara may trabaho at may kakaini sulong talaga Iloilo doon sila magprotesta sa cebu napakarami ng Coal power plant doon 3 isa palang nga ang sa Iloilo panay protesta sino ang papakain sa mga taga iloilo ang pari at madre hay nako wala yan napakaraming bansa sa mundo ang gumagamit niyan O patayuin nyo sila ng sarili nilang alternatibo pagtumayo na ang sa gusto ng pumuprotesta thats the time eh lipat nyo pag may ginawa talaga sila hindi panay protesta at dakdak lang na ayaw, walang namang gawin para makabigay ng trabaho sa mga taga iloilo. Sulong ang Coal Power palant support din kami para sa improvement at trabaho ng mamayang Iloilo. Nahuhuli na ang tunay na tinauriang Queen City of the South time na yan.Reply junn saysJune 7, 2010 at 2:04 pmSulong ILOILO, wag padadala sa mga tsismis na nakakasama sa kalusogan yang coal plant, dito sa Taiwan gumagamit din sila ng coal pero wala namang namamatay. Mga pari at madre lang yang mga nagkakalat ng tsismis na yan. Go for Coal!!!!. Iloilo will move Fast Forward. Now Na!!!Reply Nilo Lancita saysMay 6, 2010 at 9:28 pmThis may seems a industrial development leap in Iloilo but the coal-fired power plant in some developing countries are still under study and some are replaced with wind, water or nuclear power plants. The new technology in burning coal, is claimed, the exhaust is clean and safe for the environment, is due to the fact that, this fuel is cleaned with chemicals before it is delivered to the site. The mining of coal is very destructive to the environment and the chemicals used in cleaning it are not safer to this world. Our mountains, forests, birds, trees and other unique breathing species, which are part of our billion years of evolution, will be forever gone because of this destruction and that includes us…sooner. Remember that every time you flick the light switch on from the coal fired power plant, hundreds of living and non-living things are gone behind the scene…forever.Reply seahorse saysApril 26, 2010 at 1:31 pmDid you know that Cebu has already 3 Coal Power Plants.Reply john doe saysFebruary 6, 2010 at 11:07 amhey, i’ve been to mabalacat lately, its true, theres no black smoke coming from coal plants there. they are planning to make the same plant as the one in mabalacat. then theres green fields all over the plant you would not know its a coal plant, the place is so neat. iloilo would have excess electricity for a few years, then come in megaworld corporation, and other investors.Reply anon saysFebruary 4, 2010 at 7:25 pmthere will be lesser pollution than the current DIESEL power plant Panay Power uses. do your research Ulysses. its clean coal technology.Reply rod saysJanuary 30, 2010 at 2:16 pmah basta itayo nyo yan Iloilo, pag hindi huli natalaga kayo sa ibang mga city sa pinas dahil kulang ang kuryente nyo.I know Iloilo City is very potential for bussiness mas marami ang maka trabaho pagnatayo yan. pag may enough na pera na sa huli dyian kayo magisip kong ano ano ang ibang alternatibo nyo sa ngayon kailangan nyo yan para makatrabaho ang marami nyong graduates diyan dahil isa kayo na may pinaka magaling na schools sa bansa. Kailangan ng Iloilo ang supply para may trabaho. hindi ang kong ano ano ,marami ng progressive countries in the world na ang source of electricity power plant. Isulong nyo yan ILOILO.Reply Ulysses saysJanuary 26, 2010 at 1:37 amRemember people, the investors to this coal plant will not be breathing the air you breath. They will reap the profits at your expense. I do not think that this a step in the right direction for the City of Iloilo without considering other alternative sources of energy that is less harmful to the environment.Reply kweenie saysJanuary 18, 2010 at 7:30 pmIt seems that the opening of the coal fired power plant in Iloilo will not be delayed. Just goes to prove that when the government has enough political will improvements and progress for the city and country will be fast. I hope that they would not make the plant a permanent or long term solution for the energgy problem in the island. As we all know coal is a very strong pollutant for the environment. So we hope that soon the city government would be able to provide alternative energy solution which is more cost-efficient, and renewable. please do not get me wrong, we believe in progress and development, just not one that would destroy and endanger Mother earth and most especially us, her “protectors”.Reply
