Sagay City, located in the northern part of the province of Negros Occidental, is a significant hub for agriculture resources, where its local community is deeply connected.  Historically, Sagay has been a major player in the sugar industry, which is a significant economic driver in the province. However, despite economic gains from the sugar plantations in Sagay, most of its farmers and plantation workers are being treated poorly by greedy land owners and land grabbers, some of which are influential and are supported by some local politicians or possibly even nationwide-elected leaders.  The poor treatment received by sugar farmers in Sagay is just an understatement. Some of those who stand up and fight for their rights against these greedy influential land owners are often getting brutally punished and some are getting killed.  On the evening of October 20, 2018, nine farmers of the National Federation of Sugar Workers, which included four women and two minors, were having dinner in a makeshift tent when they were attacked by armed men.  There were survivors in the incident though their names were not reported to protect their identities.  The brutal incident happened at Hacienda Nene, a sugarcane plantation located in Barangay Bulanon, Sagay City.
