Puerto Princesa Subterranean River
The first round of screening for the search for the new seven nature wonders of the world had already ended and now the number of nominees is cut down to the top 77 nature spots. For the first round of voting, Philippines rocked the rankings with three of its nominees included in the top 10 namely Mayon Volcano, Tubbataha Reefs and the Puerto Prinsesa Subterranean River. Even though we have 3 nominees included at the top 77, only one could push through as our main nominee for the next rounds screening and since the nominee with the highest number votes will go through, Mayon Volcano and Tubbataha Reefs have to give way for the Puerto Prinsesa Subterranean River.
This time, the competition for the second round of screening is different since the 77 remaining nominees are categorized into 7 groups. The groups are created such that it will be assured that all of the seven nature wonders of the world will be unique. Only 21 nominees will be able to past the second round, which means that the top three nominees of each group will be the only ones that will be competing for the last screening in which the top nominees of each group after the voting period will be declared as the seven new nature wonders of the world. So far, it is too early to relax even though our nominee is at the top because the declaration will still be done in year 2011 and so, we, Filipinos and other supporters as well, should keep on voting our pride, the Puerto Prinsesa Subterranean River.
