Settlement – Bunawan side.
These new Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries (ARBs)
were invited to attend the said seminar aiming to promote cooperative
membership and thus increase number of ARBs reached.
The basics of cooperative movement were being
discussed including the rights, rules and policy guidelines to which
cooperativism is molded upon, as stipulated in RA 9520 or the Philippine
Cooperative Code of 2008.
It was also emphasized to the participants that
the CLOAs that will be handed over to them at the end of the seminar are
authentic, which should not be sold or leased within the first ten years upon
registration of the said titles to the Registry of Deeds (ROD).

in any existing Agrarian Reform Beneficiaries Organizations (ARBOs) or create a
new, registered one,” bared Municipal Agrarian Reform Program Officer (MARPO)
Merla Guhao.
“We are thankful to DAR that we already received
