Merlyn's story
In the year 2009, Merlyn learned about Paglaum MPC and the financial assistance it gives. As a farmer in Dumingag, Molave, Zamboanga del Norte, she tried her luck and took a loan to start her corn production. After several months, she was able to return her borrowed capital. To this day, Merlyn feels she owes her good fortune to the Cooperative for having trusted her with the money she used for her business.
Recently, she applied for a loan to pay for land and seedbed preparation and maintenance. Merlyn wishes to sustain her business and be able to supply corn to the neighboring towns.
