Critics of Bataan Nuclear Plant Revival Gear for House Battle

By JANESS ANN J. ELLAO Bulatlat MANILA 12 June 09 — The Bataan Nuclear Power Plant (BNPP) is one of the most controversial projects of former president Ferdinand Marcos. The plant construction began in 1977 despite strong opposition from various sectors because of the risks it poses on the life and health of the people…………………..It was the Marcos regime’s milking cow and the same scenario would possible happen upon the revival of BNPP under the current administration. “The people will not forgive the representatives that will pass this folly of a bill,” Dr. Giovanni Tapang, spokesman of Network Opposed to BNPP Revival (NO to BNPP Revival), said. He added that the government would only pass on the responsibility of paying all the unnecessary expenditures that would be used for the construction of the power plant to the tax-paying Filipino people
