5. Method of verification will be utilized to check authenticity of licenses.

6. BSA will be empowered by search warrant from the court to take action.

7. In cases of a search warrant, this should be accompanied by Quisumbing, Torres Law Firm representative.

8. If any of the above procedure is not met, it will be presumed an unscrupulous act and must be reported to proper authorities.


For local setting in Olongapo City, I would suggest that we create a volunteer team that will represent OCCSA whenever any individual or group claiming to be from Anti-Piracy Task Force enters the territorial jurisdiction of Olongapo City.

Our Team must have a lawyer and LGU representatives.
