A remarkable interview at the Manila Ocean Park



The group met at the Manila Ocean Park at 2 PM to come up with the 3 PM interview. Celine, Louise, and I waited for Jann, our group mate, before we start the interview. But when Sir Jappy Lim arrived, he suggested starting with the interview. He asked us first about our college and the project we were doing. He then asked for the list of questions that we would like to get answers for. Our group was very much prepared with interesting questions regarding Aquatic biodiversity and with that, we assume that he’ll be also prepared with his answers. In our surprise, he was able to answer our questions directly to the point. Though the interview lasted for almost an hour, we did not feel the boredom for his answers were very astounding. Every time he talks about the Manila Ocean Park, its purposes, projects, and development regarding aquatic biodiversity, we suddenly felt glad that the Philippines have this institution to help and protect the marine creatures. When we are done with the interview, we were permitted to come into the Oceanarium to take photos and videos of the different marine tanks they have. From there, we saw the different marine species that the institution has been protecting from the time when they have opened it to the public. We enjoyed the beautiful sceneries inside and took pictures. We also shot there some of the clips that we will include in the film. After an hour inside the Oceanarium, we already decided to go home.
