LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 1139 -

PROGRAM AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES. |
The Governor, Central Bank of the Philippines
The Administrator, National Food Authority
The Executive Director, Quedan Guarantee Fund Board
All Concerned
WHEREAS, the Grains Quedan Financing Program has been established pursuant to Letters of Instructions Nos. 696 and 704, dated May 24, 1978 and June 9, 1978 respectively, to encourage banking institutions to channel their loanable funds at concessionary terms to businessmen so as to augment their operating capital and thereby trigger private procurement of palay produce, stabilize ex-farm prices and hasten the uplift of income level in the rural areas:
WHEREAS, after the Grains Quedan Financing Program had proven its effectiveness in its initial coverage to palay only, Letter of Instruction No. 1024, dated May 22, 1980, expanded the commodity coverage of the said program to include corn, feedgrains and other food commodities;
WHEREAS, in response to the clamor of many sectors in the food industry and in order to more effectively pursue the objectives of this vital financing program, it now becomes imperative for the Quedan Guarantee Fund Board and other coordinating agencies to more vigorously implement the program with respect to other commodities.
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 order and direct:

2. That in lieu of a Quedan or Warehouse Receipt, a chattel mortgage on any of the Food Commodities covered under this program, may be the basis of the credit availment, guarantee coverage and other incentives provided for under the program;
3. That since the expansion of the commodity coverage entails additional funds, the Ministry of the Budget shall release the amount of Fifty Five Million Pesos (P55,000,000.00) to the Quedan Guarantee Fund Board so as to increase its guarantee fund from Ninety Five Million Pesos (P95,000,000.00) to One Hundred Fifty Million Pesos (P150,000,000.00).
All agencies herein addressed to shall adopt such implementing rules, regulations and other measures as may be necessary and appropriate to implement and achieve the objectives of this letter of Instructions.
