TWENTIETH CONGRESS 
First Regular Session 
HOUSE BILL NO. 1111 
Introduced by Representative JONATHAN KEITH T. FLORES 
EXPLANATORY NOTE 
Article XII, Section 2 of the 1987 Constitution states that: 
 “All lands of the public domain, waters, minerals, coal, petroleum, and other 
mineral oils, all forces of potential energy, fisheries, forests or timber, wildlife, flora 
and fauna, and other natural resources are owned by the State. With the exception 
of agricultural lands, all other natural resources shall not be alienated.” 
To overcome the presumption of State ownership, positive government action 
was taken through the passage of Commonwealth Act No. 141, otherwise known as 
the “Public Land Act,” which was enacted in 1936. Its purpose is to allow the 
government, from time to time, to classify lands of the public domain into Alienable 
or Disposable, Timber, and Mineral lands. The law also authorizes the government 
to transfer such lands from one class to another, for the purposes of their 
administration and disposition. 
This bill aims to reclassify a parcel of the public domain located in the 
Municipality of Cabanglasan, Province of Bukidnon, as alienable and disposable 
land. By converting a portion of public land, this will ensure proper management 
and distribution for economic growth and, most importantly, will secure titles and 
claims of the beneficiaries. 
In view of the foregoing, approval of this bill is earnestly sought.
