As such, opinions, which by nature ought to vary, will necessarily abound where issues raised in this space are concerned.

 Many buyers in good faith of such used vehicles are complaining that the Land Transportation Office has been subjecting them to harassment not inflicted on other car-owners presenting their vehicles for renewal of registration.

This statement of an Igorot stall owner may well echo the common sentiment among city folk against the order of President Arroyo to ban imports of ukay-ukay or wagwagan as imported used clothes are called here. 


This summer capital has earned the monicker "Wagwagan City" as the sale of wagwagan (meaning "to dust off") items, starting out as a sidestreet trade in the 60s, has grown into a million-peso industry in just two years.
