Pagbabalik ng Probinsyano (transl. The Return of the Provincial Man) is a 1998 Philippine action film co-written and directed by Fernando Poe Jr., who also reprises his role as Kardo de Leon, the titular "Probinsyano". The film is a sequel to the 1996 hit "Ang Probinsyano".^[1]^[2] The sequel shifts its focus from drug trafficking in the first film, to illegal mining and indigenous peoples' rights to ancestral lands.

Plot[edit]

PLt Ricardo "Kardo" de Leon has been reassigned from his former post as the Chief of Police of Santa Marcela and is now Chief of Police of Marangani, a municipality inhabited by Maranganis, a tribe of Kalinga, whose people warmly adopted him as one of their own.

As Chief of Police, Kardo faces the twin threat of Allegre Mining, which is owned by Mr. Torralba and the Tawingan tribe. The former seeks to reopen a long dormant mine over the objections of the native Marangani tribe; the latter on the other hand, is locked in a bitter tribal war with the Maranganis and have been employed by Allegre Mining to harass the natives thus making it appear that attacks are in furtherance of the tribal war. Kardo survives attempts by Allegre to have him killed and after his adopted daughter Menchie is abducted, tracks her abductors down to the Allegre offices in Manila before returning to Kalinga to lead the villagers in storming the last holdouts of the Tawingans and Allegre's goons at the mine.
