(What the LTFRB is doing now is very transparent.)&quot;Yung mga nakaraang slots, eh, 10,000 slots ang ino-offer ng LTFRB in one day nauubos yung slots eh. Kaya importante po, makita ng ating mga taumbayan kung saan napupunta yung slots, hindi yung ibinebenta,&quot; he added.(In the past, what happened was that 10,000 slots offered up by the LTFRB were all filled up in a day. That&#x27;s why it&#x27;s important that the people know who got the slots, that they weren&#x27;t sold.)&quot;Ako po mismo e sumama sa entrapment operation sa bentahan ng mga slots para dito sa TNVS,&quot; he said.(I myself joined an entrapment operation where we caught the sale of TNVS slots.)<figure class="op-interactive"><iframe allow="autoplay; fullscreen" frameBorder="0" height="100%" id="ivsplayer01" scrolling="no" src="https://player.ivideosmart.com/ivsplayer/v4/dist/html/iframe-src.html?iframeid=ivsplayer01&amp;key=e8c22c015ca9eafa76f1e3edfa03c603&amp;spid=3001339&amp;vid=2411011" width="100%"></iframe></figure><div class="iwantbar">Watch more News on <a href="https://www.iwanttfc.com/#!/browse/Genres/News/tag_id_genres/id_news" target="_blank">iWantTFC</a></div>For his part, TNVS Community Spokesperson Ninoy Mopas said their group is grateful to the LTFRB for opening more slots for drivers.&quot;Nagpapasalamat po kami, maraming maraming salamat po.&quot;(We are really grateful, thank you very much.)Mopas said interested drivers may sign up with the transport network companies to get one of the slots offered by the LTFRB.
