DIRECTING THE NATIONAL COORDINATING COMMITTEE IMPLEMENTING PRESIDENTIAL
MEMORANDUM ORDER NO. 516 AS AMENDED, TO ADMINISTER AND MANAGE THE KAPAI
SETTLEMENT/INTEGRATION PROJECT IN LANAO DEL SUR
WHEREAS,
on October 21, 1978, the President of the Philippines issued
Proclamation No. 1798-A reserving for settlement purposes certain
parcels of land of the public domain in Kapai, Lanao del Sur,
containing an area of 5,500 hectares, more or less;
WHEREAS, pursuant to said proclamation, the National Coordinating
Committee (NCC) implementing Presidential Memorandum Order No. 516 as
amended, was directed to prepare the area development plan, work
program, cost estimates and other technical plans and designs for the
total development of the settlement;
WHEREAS, prior to the issuance of said proclamation a significant
number of members of the North Mindanao Revolutionary Command
surrendered to the President of the Philippines and manifested their
desire to be resettled to enable them to live peacefully; that in
response thereto, the President of the Philippines ordered and directed
the NCC implementing PMO 516 as amended and the Central Mindanao
Command (CEMCOM) to take charge of the relocation and rehabilitation of
said rebel returnees;
WHEREAS, it is desirable to populate the proposed area not only with
rebel returnees but also with deserving mustered-out military
personnel, evacuees and other needy persons affected by the conflict in
Southern Philippines;
WHEREAS, in the process of developing a settlement/integration center
it is necessary to adopt strategic intervention formulas which ensure
that the benefits to be derived from the project will be relevant and
responsive to national security;
WHEREAS, in the implementation of this crash strategic intervention
program, it is desirable that the planners should have a free and
direct hand in carrying out the developmental activities, not only for
reasons of expediency but also to allow necessary revisions and leeway
to effectively carry out its objectives.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines,
by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby direct and
order:
