KIDAPAWAN CITY: Groups of Moro natives and Visayan settlers previously clashing over land in border villages of this city convened here on Friday afternoon to settle their decade-long land dispute amicably, following other peace arrangements in Central Mindanao.

The conflict claimed dozens of lives since it started in 2007 when warring groups led by Satar Manalondong from the Moro side and Ilonggo group headed by Dodong Lunsagay engaged in retaliatory moves at the border site of Amas and Patadon villages here.
