Deaths in Malaga (not the Spanish Malaga - the Philippine one)

Just a little footnote on the struggle between some sugarcane farmers and hacienda owners: 2 farmers slain, 6 hurt in Negros Occidental clash.

As the caption to the photograph on inquirer.net says, there is "Blood in the Canefields". Private security guards fired at farmer-beneficiaries of a five-hectare portion of the Hacienda Velez-Malaga in La Castellana, Negros Occidental this morning. There are two deaths as of press time, but then, since when has there been peace in land disputes? The thing is, a little trigger-finger control could never have been amiss. Geez.

Bloody geography. I never knew there was a Malaga here (Velez-Malaga, to be precise).
