LTO Assistant Secretary Markus Lacanilao

Fruitful Meeting with LTO Assistant Secretary Markus Lacanilao and his team on April 16, 2026.

The meeting focused on working together with the LTO to:

  • Make the authorization processes easier for PETCs;
  • Improve ease-of-doing business;
  • Address issues in the registration process;
  • Help prevent irregular practices, including non-appearance and system-glitches in vehicle inspection and testing.

PETCOA remains committed to supporting fair, transparent, and reliable systems for emission testing and vehicle registration. Together, we move toward a better and more efficient process for everyone.
