LTO to distribute vehicle plates starting July 5

PAGADIAN CITY – The Good News! Starting on July 5, the Land Transportation Office (LTO) said it will begin to release vehicle license plates nationwide.

LTO Assistant Secretary Edgar Galvante said the circulation of the plates is already finished, with distributions to the regional offices are ongoing.

“We are done with the circulation, distribution is ongoing. Release will be done simultaneously on July 5. We will do this by batches. As soon as a new batch becomes available, LTO will deliver to the regional offices.”

“This is a long pending issue that we are settling now. I am happy that with the leadership of President Rodrigo Duterte and DOTr Secretary Art Tugade, we are able to deliver our promise to give to our motorists the plates that they have long been waiting for,” Galvante said.

DOTr stands for Department of Transportation.

Galvante said with LTO’s new plate-making facility, the DOTr and LTO will continue to make improvements to develop plate production capacity to completely address the backlog of vehicle license plates.

“As the DOTr and LTO continuously find ways to enhance our plate production capacity, we seek more patience from our citizens. Konting-konti na lang po. Asahan po ninyo hindi namin kayo bibiguin,” he said.

This was also confirmed by lawyer Aminola Abaton, the LTO regional director for Western Mindanao. He said vehicle owners will now have their plates soon. “This is a good development and we are doing our best to completely address the backlog in the distribution of these plates to the motorists,” Abaton told the regional newspaper Mindanao Examiner.

Abaton, who is based here, is largely hailed by the public for the many reforms he introduced in LTO offices under his command. He is also behind the eradication of fixers and efficient services in all LTO offices in Western Mindanao, including new edifice that houses various departments of the agency. (Mindanao Examiner)
