The Inquirer detailed how a documentary Asog exposed the transgression and helped force Ayala Land to pay millions of dollars in reparations to the community. According to Time Magazine: "The film features residents of Sicogon Island, some 6,000 of whom were subjected to a poststorm land grab perpetrated by Ayala Land Inc. to build a luxury resort. Following AsogâÂÂs success on the festival circuit, Ayala eventually started listening to residentsâ demands and has agreed to pay $5.1 million in reparations to 784 displaced families."
