		Since Mainit had not been infiltrated by the entrepreneurial Chinese, it was Jokjok’s family which took on the job for the Chinese.
		Mainit, to me, and whatever happened to the people there would affirm this cynical attitude in me. My perception of events that would happen to my friend Jokjok and to his family was largely colored by my brain which was trying to unwire itself from the previous romantic program.
		Mainit, to me, was therefore the place where words were first spoken in insincerity, even in droll sermons, yet came back to me with echoes of truth.

	COMMENTS RE: MERCURY POISONING AT HONDA BAY
		In general, findings of the studies indicate that mercury had actually contaminated the living organisms in Honda Bay and entered the food chain resulting in the presence of high level of mercury in human beings.
		Although mercury is a part of natural environment of Puerto Princesa City (in the sense that it forms part of geological formation of PPC), the pollution could be primarily attributed to the mine tailings at the "Mainit Causeway" and the tailing pond inland.
		Meanwhile, local legislators are presently studying the possibility of prohibiting any fishing activity within the 3 km radius of the "Mainit Causeway" without economically affecting the local sustenance fisherman who are dependent upon Honda Bay for their livelihood.

		One possible reason for the rich variety of sea life at this particular place, called Mainit Point, is the swift tide-driven current; another is the warm water flow ("mainit", I am told, means "warm" in the native language Tagalog).
		Once at Mainit Point I was suddenly towed from about 40 feet to over 70 feet down a steep embankment.
		On balance, I think the challenging features of this particular spot are more than offset by the chance to experience the wonderfully diverse variety of its marine life.
