What's happening on DILG?

[number001]

Even the BJMP (Bureau of Jail Management and Penology) replaced their fleets with these Foton. motioncars.com | Autobuzz | Blessing of New BJMP Foton Vans Held


Just like when the MPD replaced their fleet with so many Chevy Optra for patrol cars in 2005. Or when they bought so many Suzuki Samurai (totally ill fitting as patrol cars in the metro) before that.

OT:

Actually these Optra(s) are not abandoned unlike some of those 2008 Vios parked at the MPD Hq.

MPD assigned a unit or two with new markings "MPD Women's and Children's Welfare task force" ek ek ek Complete with Menyak tint. There is also another one unmarked unit that has bodykits and magwheels, If I'm not mistaken. Easy to spot these units bec. they all sport those backyard produced tags with inscription of "MPD-xxx"



=============


Yeah, Foton may have submitted the lowest bid. But given the expected reliability of their brand, they can easily make it up through parts and labor when these break down after a month's use.


=============

NLEX (or was it MMDA? ) also bought a few of these lime colored Foton pickups back in 2005 or something.


or

Even Dole (the fruits company) ordered from Foton three years ago.
DOLE Philippines Inc. chooses the Foton Blizzard for its fleet


I don't know what is it with Foton.


So far big companies like San Miguel, Pldt, Maynilad, Tanduay Meralco, don't appear to have embraced any China brand into their fleets.
