EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 390 -
REQUIRING THE FILING OF CRIMINAL COMPLAINTS AGAINST GOVERNMENT
PERSONNEL CHARGED ADMINISTRATIVELY, WHERE THE ADMINISTRATIVE CASE
INVOLVES DISHONESTY, CORRUPTION OR MORAL TURPITUDE
WHEREAS,
it has been observed that some government personnel have been charged
administratively without the corresponding criminal complaints being
filed against them, despite the fact that the offense involves
dishonesty, corrupt or immoral acts punishable under penal laws; Since 19.07.98.
WHEREAS, such omission is not conducive to good government, as it
enables dishonest or corrupt respondents to avoid the penal sanction of
the law in proper cases; and
WHEREAS, sound public administration demands that the full force of the
law be brought to bear upon erring government personnel to upgrade the
public service and to enhance the people’s faith in the Government.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Philippines,
by virtue of the powers vested in me by law, do hereby require that in
all instances where administrative cases involving dishonesty,
corruption or moral turpitude are filed against government personnel,
the corresponding criminal complaints must be filed against such erring
personnel. Department Secretaries and heads of government agencies,
national and local, shall see to the due enforcement or implementation
of this Order.
Done in the City of Manila,
this 26th day of April, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and
seventy-two.
