Nice to hear that sir.
Actually as of today I still see alot of Anfra's running in and around Metro Manila and the provinces...
If there will be a candidate for the replacement of the Philippine jeepney or even the revival of a truly locally designed and made AUV, its should be the revival of the Anfra with a new design.

Holy rollers: Popemobiles from trucks to limos - CNN.com
By James Foxall, special for CNN
March 14, 2013 -- Updated 1409 GMT (2209 HKT)
The high cost presents a challenge to host nations, especially impoverished ones. For his 1995 visit to the Philippines, local car maker Francisco Motors produced a Popemobile based on a 4x4. As it had to be built with bomb and bulletproof parts the local faithful contributed to the extra cost.
When John Paul died in 2005, this Popemobile was put on display in a Philippine church and became a pilgrimage destination for the country's Catholics who couldn't afford to go to the Vatican for the burial ceremony. It's probably the only time a car built in the Philippines has ever been worshipped.

No news coming from EMD Francisco who a few years ago said that they will revive FMC.
Actually all local assemblers (Japanese, Chinese) are having difficulty maintaining their assembly operations due to high production costs in the Philippines plus the availability of cheaper brand new CBUs.
A good example is the Toyota Avanza made in Indonesia.
Anyway, it will be a miracle if an all-Pinoy company like FMC and Sarao will emerge again to compete in the highly competitive Philippine auto industry/market.
