Presidential Communications Operations Office (PCOO) Secretary Margaux “Mocha” Uson showed support to the call of changing the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) officials.
On her Facebook page with more than five million likers, Mocha shared the change.org petition letter addressed to President Rodrigo Duterte. She said, “I support this.”
With 4,172 supporters in two days, the petition is a reaction to LTFRB Chief Martin Delgra’s statement. Delgra said that transport regulators will be meeting with taxi operators on Wednesday (August 23), where the issue of granting more taxi franchises will be discussed.
Delgra said, “We would like to get the help of transport planners and the expert of UP on how to calibrate giving or opening up more franchises again to address supply of taxi… I mean, to put in more supply to in order to address demand.”
