Following the successful implementation of temporary quarrying ban, Governor Daniel R. Fernando pleaded to the Bulakenyos to quit conducting illegal activities in the province and made sure that illegal doers will face appropriate punishments.

“Ang inyong lingkod po ay nananawagan sa inyo, itigil niyo na ang mga iligal na gawaing ganito; bukod sa kayo ay hindi nagiging patas sa kapwa nating naghahanapbuhay, kayo rin ang nagiging dahilan ng tuluyang pagkasira ng ating likas na yaman. Ipinapaalala ko lamang po, lahat ng mga masasamang gawain ay may karampatang  kaparusahan at sinisiguro ko na kayo ay mananagot sa batas,” the governor said.

The arrested suspects are now facing criminal complaints for violation of PD 705 or the illegal possession of timber – narra and is being readied for filing before the Bulacan Provincial Prosecutors Office in this city.
