Cordillera's Quest for Autonomy Lives on...
 This RDC-CAR website on Regional Development and Autonomy aims to inform the general public of RDC-CAR matters as well as essential information on CAR’s thrusts and recent developments on Regional Autonomy. It also attempts to serve as a reliable source of information on Cordillera's quest for Autonomy.
During its 2006 strategic planning workshop at Mt. Data, the RDC-CAR having realized the immense benefits from being an autonomous region, affirmed to work out the unfulfilled constitutional provision which provides for an autonomous region in the Cordillera and Mindanao and pursue Cordillera Autonomy as an over-arching theme of its Regional Development Plan.
