The Department of Agrarian Reform in Oriental Negros will launch a radio program tomorrow, at DYWC Broadcast Center, in Sibulan, 5:30 to 6 a.m., a Capitol press release said.

This is the agency's way of reaching out to the community about the implementation of its programs, especially for agrarian reform beneficiaries, Provincial Agrarian Reform officer, Grace Fua, said.

It will be anchored by the Provincial Information Officer Aillen. Alaban and officer-in-charge, Provincial Agrarian Reform Officer Pacifico Quindo, Jr., and will be aired every Friday.

Through the program, the DAR can expand and strengthen participation among the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program Implementing Team, local government units, police and military, non-government organizations, the church and the civil society, the press release said.

It is also aimed at addressing health concerns and delivery of support services, infrastructure and agricultural development; best cases of women-backed entrepreneurship projects, and inform new ARBs in private agricultural lands on the rights and responsibilities as new owner-cultivator and coop members, among others, the press release also said.

The launching will be attended by the Director of the Public Affairs Staff Hugo Yonzon III, PARO Grace Fua, Pacifico Quindo, Jr. and representatives from the DAR Regional 7 office, the press release added.*
