STRUGGLE FOR LAND. Carrying squash on their heads, women farmers from Bukidnon, Davao del Oriental, Negros Island and Batangas reach Mendiola on their march to Malacanang.[]
The march is aimed to press President Aquino to pursue the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program with Extension and Reforms.[]
Aquino, who is in the US, has instructed top government officials to dialogue with the farmers who have gotten the support of at least 51 bishops.[]
