A REVIEW OF OTHER GOVERNMENT PROJECTS |
The Minister of Trade and Industry
The Minister of Highways and Public Works
The Minister of Energy
Whereas, the major industrial, infrastructure and other projects tentatively approved for implementation are consistent with the long term development objects of the Philippines;
Whereas, cognizant of the benefits of these major projects, they nonetheless will involve substantial capital investment from overseas that are expected to be funded by equity investment and loan funds;
Whereas, the Philippine external debt position should not be overextended and future interest and debt repayments should not be allowed to overburden future years;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by Law, do hereby Order and Instruct:
1.
The following major industrial projects shall be deferred for some
future time as may be supported by the world investment and credit
situation and the Philippines' debt and Balance of Payments position:
a.
Petrochemical complex;
b. Pulp and paper plant;
c. Aluminum smelter;
d. Alcogas projects; and
e. High-horse power diesel engine plant.
3. The Executive Committee shall at the same time identify and develop smaller scale projects with minimum external investment input, such as the following:

Integrated area and water development projects, with particular
attention to integrated projects involving reforestation, water
impounding, small irrigation systems, waterworks, and mini-hydro
electric plants and issuance of land patents;
b. Commercial
agricultural development projects; and
c. Regional
and municipal development projects and livelihood support services
development projects, with particular emphasis to those with maximum
employment and export potential.
