Digong Does What is Right
By Carlo G. Soldevilla
Written on May 11, 2018

My analysis of the situation could be wrong
But my feelings prove to be strong.

Can a man own a thousand hectares of land (land ownership, almost without limit) and the government becoming happy about it?

The ouster of Sereno gives me this feeling that…if it takes government money (through GSIS) for the Cojuancos to acquire the Luisita lands, it will also take the Philippine government a harder stance to claim back the same through the leadership of the current president, Rodrigo Roa Duterte.

For the Americans, a policy is a policy.
Gardon is a Marcos loyalist.

One time, the U.S. supported the Marcoses.

Sereno is ousted…Will Digong someday assert (through the police power of the state) to ‘appropriate the Luisita lands’ , have them placed under land reform and be justly distributed to farmers?
I do not know much how these more than 6,000 hectares of Cojuanco lands were acquired..but history could somehow explain.

If it’s (Cojuanco lands) righteously acquired, these lands will remain under the possession of the Cojuancos.
But if not, I guess, the Philippine government, through Digong will think about change that has to happen for the people to get out of the shackles of poverty (for their being unable to claim ownership of the Luisita lands which they tilled), and eventually be provided a fraction of these Cojuanco lands.

Digong always thinks about history. He does not want to be deceive. He does not even want for the Filipino people to be deceived. Digong does what is right and he will always do what is good for the Filipino people. Let’s wait and see what will happen.
