GOVERNOR Edgar Chatto blows the whistle at politicians using commemorative plates in vehicles and
asks the media to expose those who abuse the authority of the plates.
That way, it would be easier for law enforcement to carry out their mandates, Chatto stressed amid
LTO agents and the provincial peace and order council.
The call may also be cast upon persons who use unauthorized vehicle plate numbers to easily slip
through checkpoints.
Land Transportation Office Tagbilaran City Registrar Joel Maloloy-on said these commemorative
plates are illegal and are not sanctioned by the agency.
Vehicles marked Mayor, Councilor, Lawyer, or any other fancy plates still ply Bohol streets that many
traffic enforcement agents and deputies are placed in a tough position on how to deal with them,
admits Maloloy-on.
We do not want these situations happening in the streets, implied Governor Chatto who hinted that
traffic deputies may simply turn their faces away when they see these plates on vehicles rather than
messing with the people who use them, even if these are illegal.
The easiest way to address the problem of officials not keeping up with the standards of good
behavior, is to ask the media to help us expose who they are, Chatto said.
The governor also assured he will not lift a finger to protect anybody who is named abusing the
authority of using illegal plate numbers.
