The Golden Mean in Mining - Talking Points - the document that caused MVP to split with SJ/AdemU

Social and political criticisms

From Interaksyon

This is the document that broke the proverbial camel's bank, ie for MVP to part ways with the Jesuits

It is entitled Golden Mean in Mining: Talking Points.

The guy who wrote this, Fr. Jojo Magadia, the SJ Provincial is a good guy;  he is not anti business;  he is on the side of the good. 

Some of the key points:

l.  Principle stewardship;

2.  Principle of  common good;

3.  Precautionary principle

4.  Principle of dignity of labor

5. other points:   Catholic principles applied to mining

Personally, after having been exposed to social entrepreneurship and CSV, I find nothing wrong in the universal principles enumerated in the SJ document.   Are there hidden causes?

Or is the fine for PHILEX?
