(12 May 2008) We have mouths to feed. Alvin Celis, one of the farmers of Arroyo-owned Hacienda Bacan, prepares lunch as he spends his third week in a makeshift camp in front of Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) Central Office in Quezon City. Task Force Mapalad (TFM) supports the farmers by providing them food, water, and other basic needs.
(12 May 2008) Counting the years. Filipino farmer Renato Garay has been tilling a land that he does not own since 1972. He is one of the farmers dismissed from work after joining the makeshift camp in front of Department Agrarian Reform (DAR) central office in Quezon City. They demand distribution of 157-hectare Hacienda Bacan in Negros Occidental owned by the Arroyos.
