    OT: AFAIK, the siblings are not that close as to be sharing/swapping car plates (notwithstanding the legalities).

    Very possible na hindi legit na owner ng no 8 plate.

    But even if legit owner ng 8 plate, AFAIK, bawal pa rin silang gumamit ng wang-wang.

    question: are those plates supposed to be used only by congressmen/congresswoman or can they extend the courtesy to their immediate family or staff?

    What I know is no, the tongressman I mean congressman are the ones who are issued with the "8" protocol plate, but sad to say they extend this to the cars that mrs. and mistresses uses or the ones that pick up their kids from school, they even extend this to some of their chums, go figure why this country of ours can't progress.

    What I find disturbing is that the car has also this HUGE round Congressional Seal sticker placed prominently on its rear window. I mean, what for?

    If the plates are legit and the car is really used to transport the congressman to the Batasang Pambansa, with the sticker supposedly serving as some sort of gate pass for myopic security guards, shouldn't it be placed in front?

    Instead it is placed at the back, above the more mundane and pang-masa ZNK-178 plate. To intimidate traffic enforcers and drivers of cars it cuts off, perhaps?

    Mabilis lang makakuha ng 8 protocol plates at sticker ng congressman..vice president etc.. depende lang sa kilala yan..lalo na sa chinese community.. dami na nagoffer sa akin nyan..pero disiplina lang talaga kaya ayaw ko kumuha..

    Medyo naiinis rin ako sa mga kapwa tsinoy na abusado.. kesyo kaibigan ng politiko kala mo kung sino sa daan..pinagsasabihan ko rin mga kaibigan ko na may wangwang na magbago na sila.. titigas ng ulo

    Pero disiplina lang talaga mga bro..hindi lahat ng tsinoy abusado..
