See no JPEPA, hear no JPEPA, speak no JPEPA. Environmentalists stage a creative protest in front of the Senate protesting what they see as Pres. Arroyo and several senators, particularly Senators Mar Roxas and Miriam Defensor-Santiago ignoring the environmental threat posed by JPEPA on the Philippine environment by pushing for the ratification of the controversial accord. The environmental groups are calling for the rejection of JPEPA and for both the Philippines and Japan to renegotiate for a more just, equitable, and green trade agreement. (Image © GAIA) |
