 Statement of Solidarity for the Sumilao Farmers' Cause
In solidarity with the MAPALAD (Mapadayonong Panaghiusa sa mga Lumad alang sa Damlag) farmers of Sumilao, Bukidnon, we call on the Philippine Supreme Court, the highest court of the land, to uphold the law and finally deliver justice to whom it is due.
The 27 January 1999 resolution of the Supreme Court, aside from being prejudiced to the rights of the Sumilao farmers, leaves a damaging precedent as it shows disregard for the express provisions of the Constitution, the fundamental law of the land.
The 1987 Constitution requires that in cases or matters heard by a division where a vote of at least three of the members of a division is not obtained, the case shall be decided by the Supreme Court en banc.

Congress, Ablan said, will study documents covering some 59,000 hectares of farmlands “converted at DAR’s level.” Non-government organizations have cited the irony of DAR becoming the Bukidnon farmers’ champion, when the total land area converted by the department is much higher than the hectarage involved in the controversial reversals by Malacañang.
Ablan explained that “Congress is duty bound to oversee all laws that it passes, including CARL.” The primary consideration of the current probe, he added, is to inquire whether RA 6657 is actually helping resolve the nation’s age-old land tenancy problems.
