Focus on the Philippines this month releases a very timely issue on agrarian reform and rural development. On December 17, the last session of Congress for 2008, Legislators will vote on House Bill 4077, seeking to extend and reform the Comprehensive Agrarian Reform Program. This vote will decide the fate of the unfinished business of agrarian reform in the Philippines, with funding for CARP, land acquisition and distribution as well as the provision of support services to beneficiaries, ending this year. This month's issue includes analyses on CARP performance and the need for meaningful reforms as well as a summary of an alternative agricultural roadmap.
