Letter of Instructions No. 992, issued by President Ferdinand E. Marcos on February 19, 1980, mandates the regulation of government vehicle use and the limitation of security plates on these vehicles amid an energy crisis. All government agencies must submit an inventory of their vehicles, including details such as type, registration year, and location, by March 31, 1980.
