The Department of Agrarian and Reform is planning to include rebel-returnees in the list of beneficiaries of more than 500,000 hectares of undistributed agricultural lands.

DAR Secretary John R. Castriciones said the plan is part of the government’s initiative of resolving the grievances of the rebels that forced them to take up arms, and putting to an end the five-decade-old insurgency problem.

A total of 91.6 hectares of government-owned land in Barangay Daja Daku in San Isidro, Leyte were turned over on March 19 by the Leyte provincial government to the DAR for distribution to 458 beneficiaries, 262 of them are rebel-returnees.
