Local miners in the area said that some of the Chinese national working in the area had been working since last year.

I know this story is old hat now now, but the truth needs to be told. The new Governor in Iba, including his friends in Iba and the ex mayor of Masinloc wanted Coto badly, so with the help of his ex friends in the army went in and took it off senyang Lim, for their own personal greed and gain.
I guess the Subic times will not have the guts to tell the truth as it comes under the new provincial governors eyes and grip.
Mining is a dirty game that even polutes the governor and his friends. SICK.
this stories reached UK[england} i know Arsenia Lim since my childhood in coto. I’m so sad about whats going on in coto. i feel sorry for all ‘trabahadors’ who is working hard.i dont think Senyang Lim done something wrong..its a shame dahil may ‘swapang’ na gustong kunin ang lahat sa kanya…
Tell the truth, nothing but the truth….
SHAME to those people who want coto badly from Arsenia Lim. This story is going around filipino community around the world. we hope subic times will have a guts to tell people the truth on whats really going on in coto. PLEASE tell the truth..
