PLANTING RICE IN NANAY SILAY'S REMAINING PADDY. Visiting college students plant rice in a contested lot in Barangay Maa, this city. Claimed by the powerful Villa Abrilles to be used for a high-end subdivision, the lot is being fought for by Nanay Silay and other urban poor residents in the area. The Villa-Abrilles forcibly evicted residents, destroyed plants and dumped landfill in the 11-hectare land last year. (davaotoday.com photo by Medel Hernani)
