This morning, i had the chance to get to the local Land Transportation Office to claim my plastic license card.
And the sheer number of people standing in front of the office immedaitely told me that there has never really been a clear understanding by LTO officials of who and what fixers are. Or they choose to ignore?
One of the LTO's top priorities is to make the office ISO certified. And they think fixers at theri gates can make it faster?
As soon as i alit my motorcycle, somebody, who i also saw last year and the year before that met me and asked if i was to get a registration. Waht if i was, could he fix it for me?
LTO has said they have rid of the fixers. Then who are these people outside?
Maybe LTO does not know or do not have any idea how to totally box fixers out of their "big" businesses.
Let me propose a system.
When i saw a guard there posted at the steps before the counters, he could be more useful if he screens all documents and people getting in.
He has to get the documents and see if the person bringing it is the same guy reflected on the document. Ant discrepancy, a Special Power of Attorney should be required. That way, a "fixer" could still find a profitable business if he could get an SPA upon wilfull consent of the document owner. At least this way, the owners know he would be consenting to the huge deductions a fixer can put up.
And that way, the guard can rid of his arrogance in shouting at clients who come to the office personally to make sure their money do not get into fixers pockets.
Well, maybe, just maybe, the guard and some LTO people still manages to run these fixers, if they can not rid of this simple problem?
So what is it, Sir Joel? Maloloy-on ra ka kaayo? Oh, come on,
