AsiaFoundation70: Reforming Agricultural Land Titling in the Philippines
Update: 2024-05-22
Description
In 1936, the Philippines gave traditional farmers formal title to the lands they had farmed for generations. The Public Land Act was expected to boost agriculture by encouraging landowners to invest in their property, yet for years it didn’t work. The puzzle was why, and what to do about it.
Joining us for this tale of “thinking and working politically” is Erwin Tiamson, former director of the Philippines Land Management Bureau and attorney with our partner, the Foundation for Economic Freedom, which worked to change the law. Also with us is Jaime Faustino of The Asia Foundation’s Coalitions for Change.
