LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 3
The Secretary
Department of National Defense
Quezon City
In view of the present national emergency which has been brought about
by the activities of those who are actively engaged in a criminal
conspiracy to seize political and state power in the Philippines and to
take over the Government by force and violence the extent of which has
now assumed the proportion of an actual war against our people and
their legitimate Government, and pursuant to Proclamation No. 1081
dated September 21, 1972, and in my capacity as commander-in-chief of
all the armed forces of the Philippines and in order to prevent the use
of privately owned aircrafts and watercrafts of whatever make bearing
Philippine registry for purposes which are inimical to the national
interest or which are hostile to the Government or which will lend aid
and comfort to the aforesaid conspirators and their supporters, you are
hereby ordered forthwith to take over or cause the taking over of the
possession, control and operation of all privately owned aircrafts and
watercrafts of whatever make bearing Philippine registry and to keep
such aircrafts and watercrafts under your custody and control for the
duration of the present national emergency or until otherwise ordered
by me or by my duly designated representative.
You are also hereby ordered forthwith to devise reasonable measures to
control the movement of non-military foreign-owned and
foreign-registered aircraft and watercrafts of whatever make in order
to prevent their use for purposes which are inimical to the national
interest or which will lend aid and comfort to the aforesaid
conspirators and their supporters.
Done in the City of Manila,
this 22nd day of September in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred
and seventy-two.
