Sigaw para sa Banahaw ng Musmos na Puso
by: Pinagsama-samang Likha ng mga Kalahok sa Word Cup

Ako si Andrei, sampung taong gulang, at dito na ako ipinanganak sa paanan ng Bundok Banahaw. Araw-araw, paggising ko, tanaw ko ang mala-obra maestrang ganda ng bundok na tila isang higanteng nagbabantay sa aming bayan. Ang mga ulap na dumadantay sa tuktok nito ay para bang kumot ng langit, at ang malamig na hangin na bumababa mula rito ang nagbibigay-buhay sa aming mga bukirin at ilog. Para sa akin, si Banahaw ay hindi lamang bundok, siya ay tahanan, g**o, at kanlungan.

Ngunit ngayon, narinig kong balak tayuan ang aming bundok ng isang dambuhalang proyekto—ang Mt. Banahaw 247MW Wind Power Project. Sabi nila, makakabuti raw ito dahil makakalikha ng kuryente. Pero sa murang isip ko, bakit kailangang palitan ang ganda at katahimikan ng bundok ng malalaking bakal at umiikot na higanteng elisi? Para bang babaklasin nila ang obra maestrang likha ng kalikasan para gawing pabrika ng hangin.

Iniisip ko, saan pupunta ang mga ibon na palagi kong naririnig tuwing umaga kung ang kanilang mga pugad ay masisira? Paano na ang mga ilog na dumadaloy mula sa bundok kung masira ang kalupaan dahil sa pagtatayo? Baka magdulot ito ng pagguho ng lupa at panganib sa mga baryo sa paligid, sa aming mga tahanan, sa aming paaralan, at sa aming buhay. Ang bundok ay sagrado para sa marami, isang santuwaryo ng dasal at pananampalataya. Ngunit kung ito’y lalagyan ng mga makina, hindi ba’t mawawala ang katahimikan at kabanalan nito?

Hindi ko kayang isipin na ang bundok na kinamulatan ko ay magiging isang lugar ng ingay at bakal. Ang hangin na dati’y malinis at malamig ay baka mapalitan ng alingawngaw ng malalaking makina. Ang mga kwento ng matatanda tungkol sa hiwagang nakabalot sa Banahaw ay baka mapalitan ng balita tungkol sa pagkasira nito.

Ako’y isang bata lamang, ngunit ang boses ko ay galing sa puso. Hindi ko man kayang pigilan mag-isa ang proyektong ito, naniniwala akong may saysay ang pagtutol ko. Sana’y marinig kami, ang mga batang umaasa pa sa himig ng kalikasan at sa ganda ng bundok. Sapagkat ang tunay na kayamanan ay hindi ang enerhiyang gagawin ng mga bakal, kundi ang buhay, kapayapaan, at kaligtasang ibinibigay ng Bundok Banahaw sa aming lahat.

Paggunita kay Ninoy Aquino—isang lider na buong tapang na humarap sa hamon ng kanyang panahon. Ang kanyang paninindigan at sakripisyo ay naging mitsa ng pagbabago para sa ating Inang Bayan.

Sa kanyang pag-alay ng buhay, ipinaalala niya sa atin na ang kalayaan at demokrasya ay may kapalit na pananagutan. Hanggang ngayon, nananatiling buhay ang kanyang alaala na nagtuturo sa bawat Pilipino ng kahalagahan ng malasakit, paninindigan, at pagmamahal sa Pilipinas.
