MANILA, Philippines – Sinibak ng Land Transportation Office (LTO) ang 68 enforcers na nakatalaga sa central office nito sa Quezon City dahil sa umano’y kaugnayan sa korapsyon.
Sa pahayag nitong Biyernes, Setyembre 26, sinabi ni LTO chief Vigor Mendoza na ang termination ng kontrata ng 68 enforcers ay kasunod ng pinagsama-samang ulat ng mga motorista, netizen at mystery agents patungkol sa mga maling ginagawa ng mga ito, lalo na ang pagtanggap ng suhol at extortion.
“This is part of our efforts to weed out corruption and to professionalize LTO’s enforcement team,” saad sa pahayag ni Mendoza.
“Enough is enough. I will not allow any abuses and wrongdoings to compromise our positive gains from the hard work and sacrifices of our LTO family,” dagdag pa niya.
Ayon kay Mendoza, personal siyang makikibahagi sa hiring process ng mga bagong tauhan ng LTO Law Enforcement Service “to ensure that only the qualified and those who value integrity and hard work will be given the opportunity to work in the agency.”
“Only those who would successfully pass the interview and are found suitable and qualified shall be considered,” sinabi pa ni Mendoza.
“This is part of our continuing effort to gain the trust and confidence of the people we serve. We are on the right path, and I will make sure, with the help of the men and women of the LTO family, that we shall prevail,” pagtatapos niya. RNT/JGC
