OF THE WEEK
CHURCH FENCED IN
The barbed wire did not always surround this
church, which is located inside the Cojuangco/Aquino-owned Hacienda
Luisita in Tarlac. It was erected there just before the strike staged Nov.
6 by plantation and milling workers demanding land redistribution, higher
wages and benefits, more mandays, and the reinstatement of retrenched
employees. The hacienda's owners, who seem to have anticipated the strike,
must think they are the only children of God this part of the world.
