This information comes from Presidential Communications Office (PCO) Secretary Cheloy Garafil.

“Maharlika bill received yesterday by ODESLA (Office of the Deputy Executive Secretary for Legal Affairs),” said Garafil in a message to reporters.

The measure now only needs the approval and signature of President Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos Jr. for it to become a law.

Marcos had certified the bill, enabling it to breeze through the legislative process in Congress.
