In his speech, the President assured the farmers that the government is always ready to support them and help them improve their lives.

“Sa ating mga magsasaka, kami po sa pamahalaan ay katuwang ninyo sa pagpapataas ng inyong kita at pagpapa-unlad ng inyong kabuhayan (To our formers, we in the government are your partners in increasing your earnings and improving your livelihood),” he said.

“Umasa po ninyo na patuloy ang aming pagkilos upang pangalagaan ang ating mga yamang lupa at ang ating kalikasan, at matiyak ang kalidad ng pamumuhay ng bawat Pilipino (Rest assured that we will continue working to safeguard our land resources and our environment, as well ensure the quality of the lives of every Filipino),” he added.

Meanwhile, Marcos said that the government is on top of addressing the effects of El Niño and La Niña.

“Tutugunan po natin ang mga hamon sa sektor, kagaya ng nangyayari ngayon na El Niño at ang susunod na nagbabantang La Niña, at iba pang mga epekto ng climate change (We will respond to the challenges faced by each sector, including the ongoing El Niño and the impending La Niña and other effects of climate change),” he said.

“Hindi po namin bibiguin ang tiwalang ipinagkaloob ninyo sa akin at sa pamahalaan (We will not betray your trust in me and the government,” he added.

According to the DAR Region XII, a combination of 4,351 CLOAs and e-titles covering a total of 5,918.44 hectares of land was distributed to over 4,000 agrarian reform beneficiaries (ARBs) from the provinces of South Cotabato, Cotabato, Sarangani and Sultan Kudarat. 

These land titles are under the DAR's Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP) which enhances rural development and the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling (SPLIT) Project that ensures the security of land tenure by eventually providing individual e-titles.

The Palace said the event was part of the region-wide distribution of the government’s land tenure security program for landless farmers through the provision of individual land titles and support services to ARBs.
