    I appreciate the administration for thinking this plan which may be beneficial to the populace. However, it saddens me how can the government propose this project if it will be worthless after how many years? It is too ridiculous how these “hope of the people” spend too much on a dam which will be destroyed in an earthquake hit. The people’s safety should be the top priority of these officers but how come they attend to their own needs first? Yes, indeed, it has advantages but these are being overwhelmed by the great number of disadvantages. The natives will be helpless if this project will be constructed for they will lose their valued homes and agricultural livelihood.…
