All of the farmers who participated in the June 9 "bungkalan" or cultivation activity in Hacienda Tinang in Tarlac have been deemed qualified beneficiaries of the government's agrarian reform program covering the area, farmers group Makisama-Tinang said Monday.
DAR earlier said only 13 Makisama-Tinang members participated in the June 9 activity, which has resulted in arrests, detention, and filing of criminal charges after police said the participants were conducting an illegal activity."The revalidated list of Tinang farmer-beneficiaries has been posted today, June 20, at the Barangay Tinang Barangay Hall, Concepcion, and at the Makisama-Tinang hut inside Hacienda Tinang.
"It bolsters the rightful claim of the Tinang farmers to the plot they cultivated with supporters last June 9, cementing the utter uselessness of the charges filed against them," Makisama-Tinang added.
