Irrigated rice -- land preparation

I feel that my life would be meaningful if I spend the rest of my life in Palawan. I've lost the missing pieces of my soul and I need to get close to mother nature in a such place like this in Palawan. It's very beautiful in Palawan, and I think I would be completely happy to find the final resting place of myself, and that would be Palawan, the last frontier of my soul.
