Land Transportation Office chief Vigor Mendoza II yesterday lauded the conviction of three people who were arrested in 2022 for falsifying driving certificates in Jaro, Iloilo City.
The conviction of two women and their male cohort is a product of the intensified campaign against fixers and other people who are making money out of illegal activities using the LTO, he said.
“This will be a continuous operation in line with the instruction of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr. and DOTr Secretary Vince Dizon to ensure that only qualified individuals are granted the privilege to drive,” he said. Rio N. Araja
