Palace issues Memorandum on commemoration of International Humanitarian Law Day
To mark the 66th anniversary of the 1949 Geneva Convention, the Palace on Tuesday issued Memorandum Circular No. 82, commemorating International Humanitarian Law (IHL) Day.

The memorandum, signed by Executive Secretary Paquito Ochoa, Jr., directed all officials and employees in all departments, agencies, and instrumentalities of the national government, including government-owned or -controlled corporations and local government units, to actively participate in the observance of International Humanitarian Law Day on August 12.

The programs and activities in the observance of this year’s IHL Day, which carries the theme “Pagkilala at Pagpapahalaga sa IHL, Responsibilidad ng Lahat”, include the delivery of the message for IHL Day; the placement of 2015 IHL streamers in government offices and social media accounts; the holding of seminars by members of the IHL ad hoc committee; and a video presentation of the 2015 IHL video clip and International Committee of the Red Cross’ “IHL in a Nutshell”, to be launched at the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) website.

All government agencies were requested to submit their respective narrative reports and photographs of their activities to the DFA for consolidation.

The Foreign Affairs Secretary in return will submit a report to the President, through the Executive Secretary, on the activities for IHL Day.

The International Humanitarian Law is a set of rules that seek, for humanitarian reasons, to limit the effects of armed conflict. It protects persons who are not or are no longer participating in the hostilities and restricts the means and methods of warfare. PND (ag)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
