Open Letter to Talisay City Vice Mayor Allan Bucao
While I find your noble way of remembering the good deeds of Msgr. Teofilo “Lolong” Camomot commendable, I think the Governor and the Provincial Board could help you.
On March 7, 1984 the Late Strongman Ferdinand Marcos signed Batas Pambansa Bilang 648 otherwise known as “AN ACT NAMING WHAT IS COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE CEBU SOUTH EXPRESSWAY AND/OR THE CEBU SOUTH ROAD IN CEBU CITY AND CEBU PROVINCE AS THE NATALIO B. BACALSO SOUTH NATIONAL HIGHWAY.”
Section 1 of the said Act states that “The National Highway, starting from the corner of Leon Kilat Street, along the bus terminal, the south expressway in Cebu City in what is commonly known as the Cebu South Expressway and/or the Cebu South Road in Cebu City and Province of Cebu up to the Municipality of Santander, Cebu, shall be known as the Natalio B. Bacalso South National Highway.”
I am not a lawyer but I understand there is a hierarchy of laws and statutes and a Batas Pambansa could only be amended by an Act of Congress.
