The video raised questions about the approval process for constructing a resort amidst the scenic Chocolate Hills in Bohol, prompting concerns about potential disruptions to the local ecosystem and the integrity of the hill formations.
Furthermore, Regional Executive Director Paquito D. Melicor recently issued a memorandum directing PENRO Bohol Ariel Rica to organize an inspection team to ensure compliance with the Temporary Closure Order at Captain’s Peak.
