Word on the street is that the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) will drop a bombshell today that could shake up one of the most well-known eco-tourism spots in the country.
The inside info? A deep dive into old agreements unearthed some eyebrow-raising details involving the contractor behind the scenic and oh-so-Instagrammable reserve. Environment officials are talking about missing approvals, questionable deals, and—wait for it—big promises that never quite materialized.
Department insiders say that despite grand plans for a government housing project, this certain player was able to secure more land without actually delivering the goods.
Even more intriguing, the same land is now being used for something entirely different. And, according to them, the profits aren’t going to the government workers who were supposed to benefit from the original deal.
If sources are to be believed, multiple administrations have been digging into this tangled mess for years. But now, it looks like the current DENR leadership is ready to put its foot down. Expect a major announcement later today — and for a certain big name in eco-tourism to start scrambling for answers.
For now, the question remains: How did things get this far, and who’s really benefiting? Stay tuned — this story is about to get a whole lot messier.
