The House Bill declaring the Chocolate Hills in Bohol as a "national patrimony, natural heritage park and geological monuments" was approved by the House Committee on Basic Education. The bill was previously affirmed by the House Committee on Ecology in the 16th and 17th Congresses but did not become law due to lack of time for ratification by the House and Senate. Former President Fidel Ramos had declared the Chocolate Hills as national geological monuments because of their exceptional characteristics, scientific importance, uniqueness, and relevance to Philippine history and culture. A German scientist's study found that the Chocolate Hills were formed over three million years ago when Bohol was still underwater, due to undersea currents and tidal action.
