True pristine places are becoming more and more rare. Once they're gone it's never ever the same. Development of Nikko Bay, Palau must not happen or we will have sacrificed yet another fragile area to the greed of others.

Palau being pristine paradise should fight to keep important ecological places for future studies so we can better understand our marine environment. Out of all things, it should be preserved!

I live right next to this proposed project and I swim, snorkel and paddle outrigger canoe and standup paddleboard in the bay every day. This project is one of the worst I have ever seen, from both an environmental and a social standpoint. The reef would be severely damaged and the peace and tranquility of Ngermid village gone forever. It must be stopped.

That bay holds ecological importance to the marine environment of Palau. There are also studies that suggest that the corals there are resistant to climate change effects.

Did any if you see what happened to Klubed at Ngetkib, Airai? Growing up in Ngetkib me and my family used to fish around, collect sea cucumbers, and and run around clear water. Then they started dredging and changing Klubed; not much was changed but that little digging changed our water. Now the sea cucumbers (molch) are gone when they used to be found everywhere during low tide, the population of the other (ngimes) declined. The water, muggy and dirty! The closer you are to Klubed the more you find that the sea grass, sea cucumber, and sea life are gone; turned into something similar to marshland and the breeze stinks during low tide. What was said to bring in more boats to this marina didn't work. Besides klubed the surangle dock which is adjacent to Klubed also messed with wild life. Although not as bad as klubed it still brought damage that is the same; Lesser sea cucumbers, fish, and sea grass. Please my fellow Palauans, humanitarians, and anyone who is against this sigb thw petition. This needs to stop before it's too late!

Please keep this day as pristine as possible without adding all of the human component it does not need to be developed but left as it is

Don't even think about touching this pristine reef !! Leave it alone ! A real Eco Tour business would not destroy or tamper with an ecosystem!!

Please reconsider your decision to use this area for your business. I know you are aware of the problems that have are addressed by all who have signed, I'm sure you are able to find another location and use another source of advertising to get people to you business. Please think of your home.

We must protect Nikko Bay from this unnecessary and severely damaging development.
