The President must explain and elaborate in writing his verbal statement placing the whole country under a state of lawlessness.

A written order will prescribe the specifics and the limits of such declaration, and would result in the clearer enumeration of the activities permitted and prohibited, if any, during the period.

It will also guide the authorities of the strict parameters to be followed in issuing and implementing orders.

If put in writing and formalized thru a presidential proclamation, the nation will be properly informed of the metes and bounds of the state of lawlessness. By detailing the elements of the declaration, confusion is avoided, orders are made concise , and the so-called fog of war is avoided.
