MANILA, Philippines — Albay 2nd District Joey Salceda has suggested that ample support be given to local jeepney manufacturers as the government looks to modernize jeepneys, saying that Filipino-made vehicles can be efficient and environment-friendly. Salceda in a statement on Thursday said that aside from extending the deadline on the country's Public Utility Vehicle (PUV) Modernization Program, especially for recently-built jeepneys, the government should not look towards abolishing the vehicle — and instead use modern versions of it.
