In Progress

Tired of the pressures of urban life, I decided to quit working in 1997. I ended my more than 20-year career with one of Ateneo de Manila University’s social science research institutes  which I headed for a decade. Going home to my birthplace, where life would be definitely less stressful, was the most attractive choice. But as soon as I came home, I learned about a coal-fired power plant that was to be built just some three kilometres away from my home in Bago, Negros Occidental.
