Anti-nuclear movement in the Philippines : ウィキペディア英語版 | Anti-nuclear movement in the Philippines
The anti-nuclear movement in the Philippines aimed to stop the construction of nuclear power facilities and terminate the presence of American military bases, which were believed to house nuclear weapons on Philippine soil. Anti-nuclear demonstrations were led by groups such as the ''Nuclear-Free Philippines Coalition'' and ''No Nukes Philippines''. A focal point for protests in the late 1970s and 1980s was the proposed Bataan Nuclear Power Plant, which was built but never operated. The project was criticised for being a potential threat to public health, especially since the plant was located in an earthquake zone.〔Lee, Yok-shiu F. and Alvin Y. So (1999). (Asia's Environmental Movements: Comparative Perspectives ) M.E. Sharpe, pp. 160-161.〕 The demand of the anti-nuclear movement for the removal of military bases culminated in a 1991 Philippine Senate decision to stop extending the tenure of US facilities in the Philippines. Tons of toxic wastes were left behind after the US withdrawal and anti-nuclear and other groups worked to provide assistance for the bases' cleanup.〔 == See also ==
