Dy�s antipeople businesses in Isabela to be protected by CAFGU
The CAFGU will protect the Dy family�s antipeople projects and businesses.
A CAFGU company is set to protect the controversial cassava plantations, Bt corn testing fields and the planned coal mining project in the province.
Defense Secretary Angelo Reyes himself admitted on the occasion of the 21st founding anniversary of the Philippine Army�s 5th ID on May 24, that the CAFGU will protect these projects based on a request from Isabela Gov. Faustino Dy Jr. It was also reported this May that Dy will be providing arms to six town mayors of Isabela to fight the NPA and the people opposed to the projects.
Meanwhile, the Danggayan Dagiti Mannalon iti Isabela (DAGAMI), a peasant organization, strongly objected to the planned coal mining project, saying it would affect the people in 23 barangays in the towns of Naguilian and Benito Soliven and Cauayan City.
DAGAMI also said that the cassava plantation and Bt corn testing fields, projects of the Danding Cojuangco - Dy cabal, will displace thousands of peasants in the towns of Quirino, Quezon, Mallig, Sta. Maria, Sto. Tomas, Delfin Albano, Ilagan, Western Cabagan, Burgos, Aurora and Gamu.
