CALBAYOG CITY – Agrarian reform beneficiary (ARB) Gary Rubante from this city was so happy to receive his Certificate of Condonation with Release of Mortgage (COCROM) from the Department of Agrarian Reform (DAR) on Sunday, December 8, which relieved him from financial burden over the farmland awarded to him under the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program (CARP).

β€œMaraming, maraming salamat po kay Secretary Conrado Estrella III ng DAR at kay Pangulong Bongbong Marcos dahil ipinagkaloob niya po ito. Sa wakas ay wala na po kaming babayarang ganito kalaking halaga, β‚±111,842,” Rubante exclaimed.

Rubante is one of the 1,504 ARBs from the provinces of Samar and Northern Samar who are the first recipients of COCROM distributed in Eastern Visayas, held at the Calbayog Sports Center.

Presidential sister, Senator Imee Marcos, was supposed to hand the 2,140 COCROMs that will erase β‚±41,333,397.65 of unpaid amortizations and debts incurred from the 2,813-hectare lands awarded to them under agrarian reform programs, but due to the inclement weather, she was not permitted by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP) to depart from the Tacloban City airport.

The distribution rites proceeded with DAR Assistant Secretary Rene Colocar alongside DAR Eastern Visayas Regional Director Robert Anthony Yu, Samar First District Representative Stephen James Tan, Vice Governor Arnold Tan, and City Mayor Raymund Uy, leading the distribution.

On July 7 last year, President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. signed Republic Act No. 11953, or the New Agrarian Emancipation Act that will condone β‚±57.557 billion principal debts of 610,054 ARBs nationwide.

Aside from the COCROMs, 592 electronically generated individual titles under the Support to Parcelization of Lands for Individual Titling (SPLIT) project and 10 Certificates of Land Ownership Award (CLOAs) covering an aggregate area of 1,127.1534 hectares were likewise given to 532 ARBs from the above-mentioned provinces on the same occasion.

Meanwhile, Sen. Marcos instead sent a video message which was shown during the said event. (Jose Alsmith L. Soria, DAR Eastern Visayas)
