EXPLANATORY NOTE 
Article II, Section 16 of the Philippine Constitution states that "the State 
shall protect and advance the right of the people to a balanced and healthful 
ecology in accord with the rhythm and harmony of nature." 
This bill seeks to provide for the management, protection, sustainable 
development and rehabilitation of the Samar Island Natural Park (SINP). The 
Samar Island Natural Park (SINP) comprises the largest contiguous lowland 
tropical rainforest in the Philippines. With a total area of about 333,000 hectares, 
the SINP straddles the whole island of Samar and its three provinces. 
The SINP shall cover .the Provinces of Samar (Basey, Calbiga, 
Catbalogan, Gandara, Hinabangan, Jiabong, Marabut, Matuguinao, Motiong, 
Paranas, San Jorge, San Jose de BUan, Pinabacdao and the City of Calbayog; 
Eastern Samar (Arteche, Balangiga, Balangkayan, Borongan, Can-Avid, 
Dolores, Gen. Mac Arthur, Giporlos, Hernani, Jipapad, Lawaan, L1orente,Maslog, 
Maydolong, Oras, Quinapondan, San Julian, Sulat and Taft) and Northern 
Samar (Catubig, Las Navas, Lope de Vega, Mondragon and Silvino Lubos). 
The natural park has one of the biggest limestone formations in the 
country, with caves in limestone karst, many still unexplored. The area is drained 
by 25 major river systems of which very little are known of the existing biological 
resources. It harbors 2,400 species of flowering plants, including 406 Philippine-
endemic species, 40 species of which are only found in the island as well as 12 
trees listed. in the World List of Threatened Trees. 
Likewise, it has 197 bird 
species, 50 of which are endemic to the Philippines. It is also home to the 
Philippine Eagle, the Philippine Hawk Eagle and the Philippine Cockatoo . 
• 
There are 39 species of mammals in SINP representing 23% of the total 
count of land mammals in the country. The SINP is also the habitat of several 
endangered animals such as fruit bats, including the largest bat in the world 
known as the Giant Golden-Crowned Flying Fox (Acedoron Jubatus), the small 
Philippine nectar bat (Eonycteris Robusta), the Philippine pygmy round leaf bat 
(Hipposideros Pygmaeus); mammals such as the Philippine warty pig, more 
commonly known as the baboy damo (Sus Philippensis), the Philippine Brown 
Deer (Cervus Mariannus), a large forest rat (Bullimus Bagobus), a hairy-tailed rat 
(Dinagat Bushy-Tailed Cloud Rat), and several classes of squirrel (Batomys 
Rusatus, Exillisciurus Concinnus and Sundasciurus Samarensis). There are also 
25 species of reptiles and 12 species of amphibians recorded so far in the SINP. 
, , 


Due to its biodiversity and ecological significance, SINP was declared a 
protected area on 13 August 2003 by Presidential Proclamation No. 442. 
Devastating floods in 1989 as a result of massive logging sparked the moves to 
protect and conserve the biological and physical richness of the natural park. 
In view of the foregoing, passage of this bill is eamestly sought.
