    • Abstract:
      The paper aims to understand the concept of “kadagaan” in the context of Ilocano migration to the town of Ilagan, Isabela in 1881 when they were recruited by Tabacalera administrators to work in the tobacco plantations of Hacienda Sta. Isabel and San Antonio. Despite experiencing harsh conditions, the tenants held on to the promise that the lands would be given to them on 1981 - Tabacalera’s 100th year in the Philippines. The narrative of promise was passed on from generation to generation but was not fulfilled. In 1980, instead of distributing the lands to the tenants, Tabacalera sold the haciendas to ANCA corporation owned by Eduardo Cojuangco, Jr. In the face of losing what they and their ancestors worked for for a century, the farmers would realize the potential of “kadagaan” in fighting for land and labor.
