Advisory 3 - Feb. 8, 2009 (7:54 PM) - About 1,200 farmers from Task Force Mapalad, PEACE and UNORKA have entered Bacolod City and are now beside the Bacolod Bay Center beside the Cathedral.
They were welcomed by AKBAYAN-Negros and the Negros CARP Reform Movement (NCRM).
They stirred the city with calls for the extension of CARP as they hold a torch parade around the lagoon.
Bishop Vicente Navarra will hold a Mass for them tomorrow at 7:00 AM before they board a boat to Manila.
The farmers are expected to be in North Harbor, Manila at 5:30 AM Tuesday (Feb. 10).
