Reaction of ACT Teachers Party-List Representative Antonio L. Tinio on the Supreme Court decision to distribute Hacienda Luisita: “The Supreme Court ruling to distribute Hacienda Luisita is long-awaited and historic in its significance. At long last, the tillers of Luisita’s lands will become their owners. The decision to redistribute is firmly anchored on social justice and transcends the political conflicts of the day. It must be implemented immediately, with no less than President Aquino taking the lead.”
