There are two significant events being organized by CTI, Inc., Rusmil Ltd. and GGH Ltd. for 2010:
-
The first is the 2010 Hazard Mapping and Environment Summit in Manila, on Apr 8-15, 2010.
-
The other is the One Festival, a Rock Concert for the benefit of the victims of Philippine typhoon, earthquakes and tsunami in the ASEAN Region in Rizal Park Grandstand, April 16, 2010.
Echoing the call of friends, we urge the Philippine Government, Asian Governments, combines like the United Nations, ASEAN, financial institutions like World Bank, Asian Development Bank, to support this milestone activity the 2010 Hazard Mapping and Environmental Summit in Manila from the remainder of 2009 up to 2010. The actual date of the event is as mentioned above.
We also encourage everyone to support the One Festival Live Manila 2010, to generate token financial resources to assist those that were victims to the recent Philippine floods, the tsunami and the earthquakes that rocked many nations in ASEAN just a few days ago.
THE ANNUAL ECOLOGY CRISIS CONFERENCE
Resource Recovery Movement holds the first 2010 Hazards Mapping and Environment Summit (Eco 2010 Summit) in Manila, Philippines. This is ultimately borne about by the tremendous changing of the Philippine landscape and those of other countries in the Pacific Rim in the last few decades. All efforts towards risk mapping in relation to calamities and disasters in the past should now take into consideration the great shifts and transformations in land mass, the enormous amount of rainfall brought about by Climate Change and many new factors that were heretofore not factored into national and sub-national planning by governments as well as even by business establishments and non-government organizations.

The 2010 Hazard Mapping and Environmental Summit (HMES) is intended to develop better approaches to mapping risks and dangers to communities in the Philippines and other countries with tropical climates. It takes a cue from the recent experience in China, Indonesia and the Philippines, notwithstanding the previous experiences in Thailand, Bangladesh, Pakistan where scores of people died due to unforeseen occurrences during the incidence of a natural disaster: earthquake, typhoon, tsunami and other calamities. The databasing, mapping and full coordination of efforts towards use and sharing of a full function GIS on hazards, volcanoes, water, flood, forests in the Philippines and Asia, vulnerability areas, liquefaction potential, crisis and hot spots is long due because of the long-running phenomenon of Climate Change in the planet. This is also significant in that the Philippines, among other countries, lies in the Pacific Rim of Fire where a large number of earthquake faults lie.
The most important value of the conference is to determine the plan and the cost of implementing such a plan to make the Philippines and other participating nations safer from increasingly hazardous calamities.
Note: The organizers reserve the right to make minor changes in the Conference details prior to the actual Event.
HMES 2010 Organizers
The other event is shown below:
The Event was conceptualized as a music festival, with a Concert and some support activities. A side exhibit on ecology and related subjects is going to be put up by professional event managers for the organizers. As an added feature, separate exhibits for culture, performing arts, similar disciplines with a focus on the global ecology, the Philippine environment, and other side shows will also be part of the undertaking.
This festival, is the culminating Event of the 2010 Hazard Mapping and Environment Summit in Manila. The activity is a Music Festival intended to raise funds for the victims of man-made and natural calamities such as Philippine Typhoons, IDPs in hostilities in various areas in the Philippines, victims of the tsunami in the ASEAN-Pacific Regions, and to support the Private Sector Led database development and the creation of a full-functional integrated geographic information system that will include the ASEAN Flood GIS, Forest GIS, Water GIS, Volcanoes GIS, Earthquake GIS, Typhoon GIS, Political conflicts and hostilities GIS.
Come everyone and join!!! You are all invited!!!
