nasa inquirer kahapon Sept. 21, page a-18 it's a picture of a man like he's praying then nasa tabi yung info about RFID.

LTO should first clarify to public what type of information should be included in the RFID chip aside from the Car Registration number, vehicle plate number, chassis number, make and model, color and type?

What extent of the owner information should be embedded in the chip? Since some malicious parties could just buy scanners and collects information on everyone roaming the streets.

I've heard that LTO discloses that it would cost P200 for RFID, I'm worried that this RFID has loop holes and vulnerabilities. It's just the same principle with canine e-tag, buy a scanner and you can read them all.

It was a Stradcom project and all money will be going to Stradcom, of course with LTO and FG's will have their fair share

next month, you can have the ID (actually it's a sticker that you have to place in your windshield) for free, but it will be replaced when you register your car next year.

If it has information you can already visually see from a car, it wouldn't matter if someone scans it. Nakikita naman license plate, car model and make, color and registration.

Mas relevant kung this is used on public transports, emergency vehicles, government owned vehicles and military vehicles.

And as long as none of it is valid for evidence (as in someone can remove it and place it on another vehicle for malicious intent) then it should not be an issue. Kung traffic monitoring lang ang purpose, pwede na.

Actually di mo na need ito para makita at mahuli mga luxury cars with government plates being used on a sunday or holiday. Punta ka lang sa Alabang Town Center on sundays madami duon red plate.

I still fail to see the need for the RFID tags when it would so easy to tamper.

Hmmm... panibagong racket uli yan para sa mga LTO officials & fixers. Masaya uli ang mga "Korean" . . . magkano-korean.

The idea is good . . . mas madaling magpa-register, madaling ma-identify ang mga kolorum, at magandang deterrent sa mga nagbabalak gumamit ng pekeng plates. But it will take years to have it implemeted all over the country. Yung computerization program nga nila nuon e more than 5 years bago namin naramdaman sa probinsya.

agree with this, then LTO just embed it to the registration stickers... not to introduce another stand alone tags for us to handle!
