A member of the Dumagat indigenous community from the Sierra Madre signs the "Pahayag" which states their current situation and lists their appeal on issues that affect them, including the need for livelihood opportunities, illegal logging, lack of social services and issuance of certificate of ancestral domain titles. The document was drafted during the Indigenous Peoples Summit held from Sept. 23 to 26 in Quezon City. It will be given to President Rodrigo Roa Duterte and Environment Secretary Regina Paz L. Lopez. ###
