The Central Executive Committee in the Philippines was an insurgent revolutionary government temporarily established by Francisco Macabulos on April 17, 1898, shortly after the December 14, 1897 signing of the Pact of Biak-na-Bato.[1] That pact established a truce between Spanish colonial authorities in the Philippines and the Republic of Biak-na-Bato, an insurgent revolutionary movement headed by Emilio Aguinaldo.[2] The Central Executive Committee was intended to remain in existence "until a general government of the Republic in these islands shall again be established."[2] It had a constitution which provided for a President, Vice President, Secretary of War and Secretary of the Treasury.[3] The Committee was dissolved shortly after Aguinaldo's return to the Philippines from exile in Hong Kong on May 19, 1898.
