Mamayan Ayaw sa Aerial Spray (Maas) activists constructed tents outside the appellate court along Julio Pacana Street. (Sun.Star Cagayan de Oro/Joey Nacalaban) AERIAL spray opponents set up tents near the Court of Appeals (CA) building after they chained themselves at the court's doorway in Cagayan de Oro Monday.
