LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 7
The Governor
Central Bank of the Philippines
Manila
Pursuant to Proclamation No. 1081 dated Sept. 21, 1972, and in my
capacity as commander-in-chief of all armed forces of the Philippines
and in order to prevent the escape from the country of persons who are
known to be actively engaged or suspected to be 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, you and all subordinate
officials under you are hereby ordered to prohibit and prevent any and
all banks operating in the Philippines from selling or otherwise making
available any amount of foreign exchange to any citizen of the
Philippines who may wish to depart from the Philippines for any foreign
country after the date of this order except only to those citizens of
the Philippines who are being sent abroad in the service of the
Government or to those citizens of the Philippines who are members of
the crew of any inter-ocean going vessel or to those citizens of the
Philippines who are members of the crew of any commercial aircraft
engaged in the international carriage of passengers or cargoes or both.
In all such exceptional cases, care must be exercised to fully identify
the individual in whose favor such foreign exchange is being sold or
made available.
This order shall remain effective for the duration of the present
national emergency or until otherwise ordered by me or by my duly
designated representative.
Done in the City of Manila,
this 22nd day of September, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen-hundred
and seventy-two.
