Hi, I would like to know the status of my grandfather's CLT land. My grandfather's name is Felix L. Balila. It was granted to him by Ferdinand Marcos on September 10,1979 thru PD no. 27 and he paid it in Land bank. The land is approx. 1.7 hectares and located on Pasig, Claveria, Masbate. His heirs have been cultivating the land and never sold any part of it. Now somebody is claiming that it is only 0.7 hectare and not 1.7 hectares.
