    During her speech, Garma expressed her appreciation to Toyota for producing high-quality vehicles that can be converted into ambulances to address the medical transportation requirements of local government units (LGU).

    The newly delivered PTVs have been converted to meet the requirements of the PCSO PTV distribution program that provides local authorities medical transport vehicles for their respective areas of jurisdiction.
