WHEREAS,
reports from the law enforcement agencies reveal that there are still a
big number of loose or unlicensed firearms, ammunition or explosives in

penalized in accordance with existing laws;

possession of loose or unlicensed firearms, ammunition and explosives;

unlicensed firearms, ammunition or explosives the opportunity to

necessary to adopt a liberal scheme for that purpose;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, CORAZON C. AQUINO, President of the Philippines, do
