As presiding officer, Almario promised that the provincial board would make a report to Governor Corazon Malanyaon, and to the military authorities, on the situation. “But I warn you not to expect results in a week’s time,” he told protesters.
As of press time, many of the protesting farmers have not yet returned to home as they await actions promised by the town officials. The military operations rage on. (davaotoday.com photos by Barry Ohaylan and Jonald Mahinay)
