LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 606 |
The Heads of State Colleges and Universities
All Concerned
WHEREAS, the New Society has embarked upon a massive program to improve the lives of our people in the barangay and for this purpose has exhorted all sectors in the government to go back to their native roots and render much needed community development service;
WHEREAS, we have embarked upon this program because one of the overriding concerns of the New Society is to share the benefits of progress with the great masses of our people by improving the quality of life in the barangay;
WHEREAS, the programs operating under this "Balik-Barangay" concept have generated enthusiastic response and willing cooperation from all sectors;
WHEREAS, the rural folks have welcomed the assistance and are even now joining hands with the government workers in the realization of programs that will ultimately redound to the benefit of all;
WHEREAS, these efforts, no matter how willingly and wholeheartedly given, are still inadequate to solve the problems present in our rural communities;
WHEREAS, what is needed is the active involvement of all sectors of society, especially those with special expertise and knowledge to share or bestow;
WHEREAS, there is need for the State colleges and universities to intensify their efforts in their present endeavors to transfer to the community their expertise, scientific and technological knowledge so that the barangays will be able to benefit from these expertise and advanced scientific and technological knowledge relevant to their communities:
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines, by virtue of the powers vested in me by the Constitution, do hereby direct the Secretary of education and Culture to call upon all heads of state colleges and universities to join us in these programs by organizing, expending or strengthening their own programs for these communities.
These programs shall be monitored by the Department of Education and Culture, through the Undersecretary of Education for Non-Formal Education, and their progress and implementation shall be reported to me periodically for it is my desire to properly acknowledge the concern of our educational institutions for our least fortunate communities.
DONE in the City of Manila, this 1st day of October, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and seventy-seven.
