Greenpeace Philippines plans ’Golden rice’ forum in Dumaguete
Dumaguete City is being eyed as venue for the Visayas forum against the genetically-modified golden rice targeted to hit the Philippine commercial market by 2013. Greenpeace Southeast Asia Sustainable Agriculture campaigner Danny Ocampo said Dumaguete is an ideal setting for the forum because of the strong tendency of local sectors towards organic farming, and since the city and Negros Oriental are known for their anti-GMO stance. There have been moves to oppose or ban the entry of genetically-engineered corn and eggplant to the province, Ocampo also said.
