Camacho said the five landowners are from Chalan Kiya, San Antonio, Garapan and Tanapag.
Two more landowners have indicated their support for his group but were hesitant to join, he added.
“We are now in the process of setting the venue and the schedule” for the first meeting of the landowners and their families, he said.
According to Camacho, he has already assigned one of the members of his group to secure the Garapan Central Park as venue for their first forum.
He said the group will probably meet officially for the first time next month as soon as he returns from the U.S. where he has to attend to a family concern.
The landowners who joined Camacho said the government is using their properties without any expressed permission, legal transfer of deed of sale of land property or compensation.
Their parcels of land cover portions of the Chalan Pale Arnold Road.
Camacho’s 1,314 square-meter and 478 square-meter properties in Achugao are being used for public roads and a power distribution system.
Based on Camacho’s certificate of land title that he showed to the Variety, the 1,314 sq. m. real estate property bears the Lot Number 016B05-B, and the 478 sq. m. the Lot Number 014B37.
He said his 1,314 sq. m. lot is situated in between two other lots of his two cousins whose lands have also been taken by government.
“This is an indigenous problem. You can’t take private lands without compensation,” Camacho said.
