The Philippine government is set to spend ₱1.3 billion for a night light show at Mayon Volcano to enhance it as a tourist attraction and help the local economy.
However, the plan has caused issues among some residents and environmental groups. According to supporters, the project will help increase tourism, especially at night. But environmentalists warn that the natural ecosystem and wildlife, as well as the volcano's natural beauty, could be affected.
There are no details yet about the exact plan and environmental impact report. So many are asking—will this be a new tourist attraction, or will it possibly ruin the perfect shape of Mayon Volcano?
