EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 4 - AMENDING
SECTIONS 3, 4 AND 5 OF EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 490 OTHERWISE KNOWN AS
“ESTABLISHING THE PRINCIPAL OFFICE IN MANILA OF THE MANILA ECONOMIC AND
CULTURAL OFFICE AND TRANSFERRING THE SUPERVISION OVER ITS OPERATIONS
AND ACTIVITIES TO THE DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS”
WHEREAS,
on January 16, 1984, the MECO (formerly ASECTAI), including its offices
in Taiwan, was placed under the Office of the President pursuant to
Executive Order No. 931;
WHEREAS, on June 26, 1998, supervision over the principal office in
Manila of the MECO and its branch offices in Taiwan was transferred
from the Office of the President to the Department of Foreign Affairs
pursuant to Executive Order No. 490;
WHEREAS, owing to the Government’s commitment to a One-China policy,
the responsibilities entrusted to MECO of fostering people-to-people
relations and facilitating unofficial contacts between the Philippines
and Taiwan are too important and too sensitive duties that supervision
and control over the principal office in Manila and its branch offices
in Taiwan should remain under the Office of the President.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH EJERCITO ESTRADA, President of the Republic
of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by the
Constitution, do hereby order:
