AN indigenous Dumagat-Remontado community joined mounting calls to cancel the Mineral Production Sharing Agreements (MPSAs) inside the Upper Marikina River Basin Protected Landscape and the Masungi Geopark Project (MGP).

Some 100 leaders and members of the Dumagat-Remontado of Antipolo released a petition on May 19, 2022 asking President Rodrigo Duterte, Department of Environment and Natural Resources OIC Secretary Jim Sampulna and Rizal Gov. Rebecca Ynares to save the Susong Dalaga mountain from quarrying. They said the Susong Dalaga mountain is sacred to their community and is part of their heritage. It is also included in their ancestral domain.
