How do you assess the forestry preservation efforts in the Philippines compared to those of other countries? Which country, and why, do you think should the Philippines emulate and use as a model to advance its preservation\/conservation programs?<\/span><\/em><\/strong><br \/>\nPreservation efforts of forests in the Philippines may not have an astounding impact and the situation is similar to other developing countries. In the Philippines, three factors impede a successful implementation of forest conservation and preservation programs. These are fast population growth, illegal logging and inefficient cooperation from people. Fast population growth further puts pressure on dwindling forest resources which is made complicated by lack of full cooperation from people. Meanwhile illegal logging is the cause of failure of any forest conservation and preservation program.<\/p>\n<p>I would go for the\u00a0<strong>Swedish forest policy and its gender equality policy<\/strong> I would say that their practice could be a role model towards optimum forest conservation in the Philippines. They have two equally important objectives, namely: the production objective and the environmental objective . In brief, this means that forests and forestland are national assets that should be used efficiently and responsibly so that they produce high sustainable yields while at the same time preserving biological diversity.<\/p>\n<p>The<strong> Swedish gender equality policy<\/strong> has the principal aim that women and men should have the same opportunities, rights and responsibilities in all areas of life. This implies e.g., equal distribution of power and influence between men and women, the same opportunities to achieve economical independence, equal access to education and training and shared responsibilities for children. In this regard, the Philippines should emulate the Swedish forest system policy and use this as model towards forest conservation program in the country.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em><span style=\"color: #000080;\">Your current line of research is on the utilization and preservation of resin-producing trees that are endogenous to the Philippines.

Resins have many uses and are therefore economically valuable. These are used in pharmaceutical products, in making varnish, paint, soap, plastic, linoleum, shoe polish, floor wax, ink for printers and others. Traditionally, they have also been used in caulking of boats, kindling fire, religious ceremonies as well as for medicinal purposes and as mosquito repellent. Collecting resin is a good livelihood opportunity for people in areas where resin-producing tree species abound.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<p><em>The Philippines is endowed with various resin-producing species. The country&#8217;s Dipterocarpus are the source of resinous oil and resin, better known as balau among Filipinos. Balau is obtained from the wood of apitong (<\/em><em>Dipterocarpus grandiflorus<\/em> Blanco), panau (<em>D. gracilis<\/em> Blume), and related species of Dipterocarps.

The species of the family Burceraceae, e. g., pili (\u00a0<em>Canarium ovatum<\/em> Engl.), piling liitan (<em>C. luzonicum<\/em> (Blume) A. Gray) and pagsahingin (<em>C. asperum<\/em> Benth.) are the main sources of Canarium resin widely known in trade as Manila elemi. For softwoods, the country offers at least two species for tapping purposes, i.e., Benguet pine (<em>Pinus insularis<\/em> Endl.) for oleoresin and almaciga (<em>Agathis philippinensis<\/em> Warb) for Manila copal resin of the Pinaceae and Podocarpaceae families, respectively. Although resins are considered minor forest products, they are the one of the country&#8217;s dollar earners. For a period of 10 years (1992-2006), an average of 259,700 kg of almaciga resin valued at US$ 204,400 were exported [Philippine Forestry Statistics (PFS) 2006]. Further, PFS revealed that 237,488 of Manila elemi resin valued at US$431,000 were exported to France, Germany, Japan, Spain and Switzerland. There is a demand at present for resins in local markets such as Cebu and Bulacan where local varnishes and paints processing plants are found and in international markets such as France, Germany, Japan, Hongkong and Singapore.
