DOTr vows safer transpo system following cash smuggling try
The Freeman
|May 13, 2025
Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon assured that their department will closely coordinate with law enforcement agencies and adopt a whole-of-government approach to ensuring that the entire transportation systems and its passengers are safe and secure following the interception of millions in cash at the Mactan-Cebu International Airport last Friday.
-
This came after President Bongbong Marcos said that all government agencies must work closely in addressing criminality and ensuring the country's peace and security.
DOTr commended the Office of the Transportation Security (OTS) and the Philippine National Police (PNP) together with other law enforcement agencies for their swift action in seizing almost half a billion pesos in cash and other currencies at the MCIA, which led to the arrest of nine foreigners and two Filipinos.
The bundles of cash contained in seven trolley bags were in the possession of 11 passengers bound for Manila via flight RPC 9968 last Friday.
