DECLARING THE SYNDICATED PRINTING, MANUFACTURE, DISTRIBUTION, POSSESSION OR USE OF FAKE OFFICIAL BUREAU OF LAND TRANSPORTATION FORMS, DOCUMENTS, PLATES AND STICKERS AS OFFENSES INVOLVING ECONOMIC SABOTAGE

WHEREAS, there is an urgent and imperative need to safeguard the interest of the general public and the government, particularly the Bureau of Land Transportation, against the syndicated or highly organized operations of unscrupulous persons engaged in the illegal printing, manufacture and/or distribution of or mere possession or use of fake Bureau of Land Transportation accountable forms and documents and motor vehicle number plates and stickers;

Section 1.
