a. As a social justice measure, its implementation will
ensure proper management, development, and
utilization of the resources to benefit not only the
present generation but also the generations to come.
The CRDP’s non-formulation could result to a lack of
a clear plan through which funds and resources are
allocated and disbursed. The scenario poses the
danger of the funds and other resources being
utilized by a few individuals, which ultimately results
to non-enjoyment by the IP community as a whole.
The same will also lead to the lack of transparency
and accountability on the part of the IPOs and the
NCIP will experience difficulty in monitoring the
financial aspect flowing from royalties, funds,
benefits and other resources pursuant to the Office’s
mandate to protect the well-being and promote the
rights of ICCs/IPs.

IV. Ancestral Domains Profile and Other Significant Undertakings
31. ANCESTRAL DOMAINS ARE NOT FOR SALE!!!
Pursuant to Section 5, RA 8371 the indigenous concept of
ownership sustains the view that ancestral domains and all
resources found therein shall serve as the material bases of their
cultural integrity. The indigenous concept of ownership generally
holds that ancestral domains are the ICC's/IP's private but
community property which belongs to all generations and therefore
cannot be sold, disposed or destroyed. It likewise covers
sustainable traditional resource rights.
