During a session of the Manila city council on May 23, District 1 Councilor Moises Lim recalled an encounter with a motorist who berated him for using the parking space that he allegedly obtained through a “memorandum of agreement or MOA” with the city government.
On April 19, Lim parked his vehicle at an available space along Sanchez street in Tondo before attending an affair at the nearby Uno High School.
When they were about to leave, Lim said he and his relatives were surprised to find a sport utility vehicle (SUV) with license plate NCR 8354 blocking their vehicle.
After being stuck for 10 minutes, a man who allegedly owned the SUV scolded Lim, asserting he owned the parking space through a “MOA.”
