This act of self-suffering, is their non-violent way to voice out and demand their rights over their lands and to help the public understand the importance of agrarian reform.
They staged a 28-day hunger strike in 1997 in protest over the conversion of 144 hectares earlier awarded to them by government. They won broad public support and were granted by President Ramos 100 out of 144 hectare. But the Supreme Court gave the 100 hectares back to the landowner on the basis of technicality. Violating land conversion laws, the landowner did not develop the property according to the government-approved plan within the prescribed five years and sold it to a corporation led by one of the richest men in this country.
The farmers have all the legal and moral right to reclaim their land, but they are against all odds. It is time to give the farmers what is duly theirs! They deserve NO LESS.
