Lopez: No hunch on DOTr leadership changes; need not ask Marcos
Acting Transportation Secretary Giovanni Lopez stated he has no specific insights into the recent leadership changes within the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and its attached agencies, and sees no need to inquire from President Ferdinand Marcos Jr.
Lopez confirmed that Atty. Vigor Mendoza II, the current Land Transportation Office (LTO) chief, will transition to become the new chairperson of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB), succeeding Teofilo Guadiz III.
In addition to Mendoza's appointment, Markus Lacanilao will take over as the new LTO chief.
Teofilo Guadiz III, the outgoing LTFRB chair, has been reassigned as the chairperson of the Office of Transport Cooperatives.
Lopez emphasized that as appointed officials, they do not require a stated reason for any changes in their positions or for transfers to other roles within the government.
