TUBURAN Mayor Aljun Diamante has issued an order on Wednesday, July 5, to temporarily close the Molobolo Spring to rehabilitate the area following an incident that resulted in the amputation of the child’s finger.

Diamante said that while the renovation is still going on, it is better to close the resort to avoid more accidents.

“Naa man gud nahitabo, naay bata naputlan og tudlo ba kay naa man gud ta’y infinity pool didto unya naa pay kulang so ato lang sa ni i-rehabilitate, atong i-renovate ang mga kulang kay basin naa nasa’y madisgrasya,” Diamante told SunStar Cebu on Friday, July 7.

(Something happened, a child cut his finger there because we have an infinity pool, and there’s still something missing, so we’ll just renovate it, we will fix the missing ones since an accident might happen again).

In May of last year, a 13-year-girl also drowned in the spring.

Because of this, Diamante ordered the police and concerned barangay officials to strictly monitor the area to ensure the safety of swimmers.

The mayor was reportedly dismayed because there were several people swimming but no one was manning the spring when he visited the area.

“Unya ang barangay dili man gud ga cooperate lisod kaayo unya dili motabang kay kulang baya ta og personnel unya usa baya sila sa makabenefit ana so dapat gyud unta nga ang barangay usa sad sa mo man ana unya ang mga tanod wala sad sa area,” Diamante said.

(The barangay doesn’t cooperate; it’s difficult if they don’t help since we lack manpower and they stand to benefit from it, therefore the barangay should be the one to man the area. However, the tanods weren’t present).

Thus Diamante plans to take a step so that the local government unit will take over the management of the spring.

Molobolo Spring is known for its beautiful infinity pool.

Before it was closed, it was open to visitors for a P20 to P30 entrance fee.

The mayor has not yet revealed when the spring will reopen.

However, Diamante said that even though Molobolo is currently closed, the town still has a lot to offer to its visitors.(ANV, TPT)
