On June 19, 2017, the DOTr issued Department Order No. 2017-011 or the Public Utility
Vehicle Modernization Program (PUVMP). It aims for a restructured, modern, well-managed
and environmentally sustainable transport sector where drivers and operators have stable,
sufficient, and dignified livelihoods while commuters get to their destinations quickly, safely,
and comfortably.
Under the Constitution of the Philippines, the Executive has the power to implement and
enforce the law. To attain this easily, the Executive Branch has its own agencies or departments
that are created to develop, enforce, and oversee the rules and regulations of a law. The
Department of Transportation handles the implementation of rules and regulations in the
transportation system.
Aside from that, under the Section 5(d) of Executive Order No. 125, the Department of
Transportation has the power to administer and enforce rules and regulations in the field of
transportation and communications. Meaning that the DOTr has the power to regulate the
transportation sector of the nation.
