LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 189
TO
: Secretary David M. Consunji
Dept. of Public Works & Communications
Secretary Baltazar Aquino
Department of Public Highways
WHEREAS, as one of the objectives of the government is to implement and complete at the earliest possible time all roads, highways and public works projects of the government at the least possible cost;
WHEREAS, it has been brought to my attention that substantial asphalt requirements of the government for these projects are purchased from distributors and/or dealers and middlemen instead of purchasing directly from the manufacturers and/or producers thereof;
WHEREAS, the government is the owner and/or has controlling interest of Petrophil Corporation, which Company is engaged directly in the manufacture of asphalt products through its subsidiaries, the Bataan Refining Corporation and Filoil Refinery Corporation, as well as in the sale and marketing thereof;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by the Constitution, do hereby order and direct:
1.
That all national government, provincial,
municipal, and city requirements of asphalt be purchased directly from
Petrophil Corporation and/or its subsidiaries at prices no higher than
the wholesale posted prices fixed for asphalt by the Oil Industry
Commission;
2. That since
such purchases are by government
agencies or entities from a wholly owned and/or controlled government
corporation, the requirements of public bidding shall not be applicable;
3. That such
government agencies and entities may
purchase their requirements of asphalt from other companies and/or
persons only to the extend of the quantity that Petrophil Corporation
is unable to supply;
4. That in all
such cases where the purchase of
asphalt is made from persons or corporations other than Petrophil
Corporation, the same shall be supported by a certification from a
responsible officer of Petrophil Corporation of the quantity and/or
volume that Petrophil Corporation cannot supply;
5. That to
implement this Letter of Instruction you
are hereby directed to issue the appropriate administrative orders
addressed to all your regional, provincial and city offices including
the provincial and city engineers.
