Ecuador 's government says it has started dismantling infrastructure on controversial oil drilling block in Yasuni National Park .

The government last week asked the constitutional court for an extension of five years and five months for the state-run oil company Petroecuador to cease operations.

It's been a year since the historic referendum to halt oil drilling in the national park in the country’s Amazon .

The Waorani Indigenous people who live there say nothing has been done.
