LTO ASec. Suansing, First patubas it Poblacion Awardee


Asec. Alberto Suansing lived in Poblacion, Anini-y before his family moved to Manila. In Manila, his summers were spent working in the famous area of Tondo, Pier and North Harbor where he watched his kababayans from Anini-y come and go home to Anini-y.

His ability to face and overcome adversities and his fire-tested will to survive and succeed is a testament of his long, hard working years in those places.

Encouraged and pressured by his father during his young days, his after- school hobby is to use the screwdriver and a pair of pliers than have fun with his friends.

A mechanical engineer, he learned much about transport-related concerns both from school and from actual experience, as a jeepney, taxi and bus driver plying some routes in Manila.
Prior to his appointment as the new LTO Chief, Asec. Suansing served as a Director of the Road Board, representing the private sector, and concurrent consultant of the DOTC on transport related concerns.

He was also Chairman of the Transport Organizations for Clean Air and is very much involved in the formulation of the policies governing the implementation of the Clean Air Act (RA 8749).


Asec. Suansing was one of the major resource persons in the formulation of the Anti-Overloading Law, RA 7984, meant to promote safety on the road and to preserve our roads from costly deterioration.

Their family owned an Arrastre and Stevedoring Service and a Cargo Distribution Service. He served as Vice Chairman of the Arrastre and Stevedoring Operators, Vice President of Asia Pacific International Federation of Port Cargo Distributors and the President of the Confederation of Truckers Association of the Philippines.
