The Baguio Regional Trial Court has issued an order blocking CJH Development Corp.'s attempts to delay the full return of the 247-hectare Camp John Hay property to the Bases Conversion and Development Authority (BCDA).
State-run Bases Conversion and Development Authority ( BCDA ) welcomed the Baguio Regional Trial Court’s order blocking CJH Development Corp.’s (CJH DevCo) attempt to delay the full return of the 247-hectare Camp John Hay property. The decision, issued on Jan. 3, 2025, followed the Supreme Court ’s final ruling, ensuring the immediate and unconditional recovery of the property by the BCDA .
The court’s decision mandates the transfer of all land and improvements, whether directly held by CJH DevCo, its subsidiaries, affiliates, or third parties claiming rights under them, back to the BCDA. The order also directs court sheriffs to immediately and fully enforce the reinstated writ of execution and notice to vacate, ensuring a smooth handover of the property. BCDA assured the public that business operations within Camp John Hay would continue uninterrupted and encouraged all stakeholders to collaborate for a seamless transition. BCDA said the latest ruling is a victory for the Filipino people as it would unlock opportunities for growth and development in Camp John Hay. The agency said the decision would attract new investments to generate jobs, stimulate the local economy and support entrepreneurship. It said more redevelopment projects are planned to transform the property into a world-class, family- and community-oriented destination that harmonizes with nature. It also said the ruling promotes sustainable economic growth by balancing environmental preservation with progress, uplifting local communities, and enhancing property values. BCDA advised the public to be vigilant against misinformation and misinterpretations of the Supreme Court’s decision. It said attempts to mislead the public in the guise of protecting third-party rights undermine the legal clarity of the ruling
