[ LETTER OF INSTRUCTIONS NO. 394, April 09, 1976 ]

TO: All Concerned
WHEREAS, Letter of Instruction No. 331 issued on 29 October 1973 proclaimed the year 1977 as the period fer Reunion for Peace and granted incentives to veterans of World War II and their families to revisit the Philippines;

WHEREAS, during this significant event we should not overlook our own Filipino veterans who have served their nation well in war and in peace and are, therefore, worthy of incentives of the program;

WHEREAS, the grant of such incentives to Filipino veterans, aside from being a gesture of grateful remembrance of their services, shall also enable them to participate more extensively in Reunion for Peace and encourage them to promote domestic tourism;

NOW, THEREFORE, I hereby amend Letter of Instruction No. 031 to provide for the grant of the same accommodation, transportation and other incentives to bonafide Filipino veterans of World War II and members of their families traveling with them; specifically the incentives stated in Paragraphs No. 7, 8 and 11 of said Letter of Instructions.  The Coordinating Committee for Reunion for Peace will prepare the necessary guidelines and  regulations involved with this amendment.

Done in the City of Manila, this 9th day of April, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and seventy-six.
