EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 372 - CREATION
OF A COORDINATING TASK FORCE FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF THE NORTH FOOD
TERMINAL COMP IN BULACAN
WHEREAS, it is the primary concern
of the government to support countryside development and agri-based
industrialization projects leading to the realization of the vision of
Philippines 2000;
WHEREAS, it is a national policy of the government to ensure the food
security of the nation by encouraging the efficient production,
processing, marketing and distribution of food crops, livestock, marine
products, fruits and vegetables;
WHEREAS, it is also a national policy to encourage the dispersal of
industrial, commercial and financial businesses to the countryside;
WHEREAS, there is a need to decongest the National Capital Region,
particularly of industries and agro-processing and related services so
as to relieve Metro Manila of activities that could otherwise be
efficiently situated in its periphery and thus prevent the
deterioration of its economic, social and infrastructure systems;
WHEREAS, local government units are encouraged and empowered under the
Local Government Code to initiate and implement developmental projects
for the benefit and welfare of their respective communities, in
particular, and of the nation as a whole;
WHEREAS, the provincial government of Bulacan has conceptualized and
recommended the setting up of a North Food Terminal Comp (NFTC) in the
province which will replicate the success of the Food Terminal, Inc.
located in Taguig, Metro Manila.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FIDEL V. RAMOS, President of the Republic of the
Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby
order the creation of a Coordinating Task Force to be chaired by the
Governor of the Province of Bulacan with representatives from the
Department of Agriculture, the Department of Trade and Industry, the
Department of Agrarian Reform, the Department of Environment and
Natural Resources, the Department of Public Works and Highways, and the
Philippine Economic Zone Authority, as members, for the purpose of
coordinating the execution and implementation of the proposed North
Food Terminal Comp (NFTC) in Bulacan.
The Task Force is hereby authorized to call on the assistance of
national government agencies and offices whose advice, talents and
technical expertise may be needed for the successful prosecution of its
objectives, within the limits of the agencies’ respective mandates and
to the extent allowed by law. The Governor of Bulacan is likewise
mandated to steer the Task Force for an early completion of the NFTC’s
detailed feasibility studies, its funding requirements and timetable of
implementation. Forthwith, the Task Force shall submit its
recommendation to the Office of the President.
DONE in the City of Manila,
this 9th day of October in the year of Our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and
Ninety-Six.
