WHEREAS, the term of SIDPO was extended up to July 3, 1995 by virtue of Executive Order No. 233 on March 31, 1995 for the purpose of winding up its affairs and to effect a smooth turn over of its assets and liabilities to the Office of the President as provided for in Section 6 of Executive Order No. 397;
