EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 1033 -
DECLARING THE POLICY OF THE PHILIPPINE GOVERNMENT PROVIDING THE
SPECIFIC MEASURES TO ENHANCE OR STRENGTHEN THE EFFORTS TO IMPLEMENT THE
RECOVERY PROGRAM AND REMOVING THE OBSTACLES THERETO
WHEREAS, the international economic
situation remains fragile as indicated in the slow process of economic
recovery even in developed countries, and the existence of serious
external debt problems in many developing countries;
WHEREAS, the Philippines is in the process of implementing an economic
recovery program while at the same time coping with a global
environment of fierce competition, including but not limited to
increasing protectionism, reduced flow of development assistance, and
low commodity export prices;
WHEREAS, there is an urgent need to restore and strengthen the
international financial community’s confidence on the Philippine
economy so that the current economic adjustment program can be carried
out with vigor;
WHEREAS, in the course of economic recovery it is paramount to raise
productivity and efficiency in the agricultural, industrial and
services sectors, and to stem any declines in such productivity and
efficiency that may have already occurred;
WHEREAS, the attainment of economic recovery with the least burden to
society makes it imperative to invigorate programs addressed to the
restructuring of agriculture, industry and services to make them more
internationally competitive, export-oriented and effective in creating
productive employment;
WHEREAS, any disruption in the production process will hamper
government efforts to ensure price stability and restore a financial
environment favorable to the generation of investments, creation of
livelihood opportunities, and rise in incomes and wages;
WHEREAS, doubts are being expressed by the industrial sector about the
capability of present laws and institutions to maintain industrial
peace and this has been due to the increase in the percentage of
strikes compared to previous years;
WHEREAS, it is now necessary to add to existing provisions of the labor
laws the creation of a Presidential Council for solving the problems of
both management and labor in relation to the economic recovery program.
This should include a study of and the solutions of the causes of
strikes, as well as study of the efforts of the tripartite sector by
bringing various elements that have to cooperate to bring about the
success of the program. This project, however, shall include the other
problem that involves infiltration of both management and trade unions
by subversives and various elements which have their own objectives
adverse to the pursuit of the economic recovery program.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Republic of
the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by the
Constitution, do hereby create a Presidential Council for National
Economic Recovery.
