Recognizing that the Slum Improvement and Sites and Services Development Program can be pursued only in the magnitude that government envision to implement it, through a deliberate and effective cost recovery scheme that covers the cost of funds utilized by the government to support the program and realizing that the family beneficiaries prefer freehold as the land tenure for projects under the above-mentioned program, it is hereby directed that:

The cost of funds shall be determined by the weighted average of the contribution of the funding agency providing the borrowed funds and that of the Philippine government. For this purpose funds from the Philippine Government shall be assumed to cost only 9% per annum.
(b) In consideration of the preference of project beneficiaries that the land tenure for projects under the program should allow immediate ownership of the land by them, freehold and lease with option to purchase are the land tenure schemes for projects under the program. Project beneficiaries shall be given the option to select from the above schemes taking into consideration the capacity to meet the payments to be made under each scheme.
(c) All provisions of LOIs Nos. 555 and 686 to the extent that they are not consistent with the principles, guidelines and provisions of this Letter of Instructions are hereby amended.
