ACTRESS AiAi delas Alas took to social media to praise motorists along Commonwealth Avenue in Quezon City for showing discipline following the implementation of the No Contact Apprehension Policy (NCAP).
“Nakakatuwa na tayong mga Pilipino ay natututo na ng disiplina,” she wrote, sharing her relief that local driving habits are beginning to resemble those in the US where she currently resides. “At least ngayon, susunod ka na sa lane—and ticket ang ‘he-hello’ sa’yo. Wala nang paliwanag, bayad ka.”
She also addressed critics who mock law-abiding motorists, urging them to encourage compliance instead. Responding to a comment that the policy was unfair to the poor, she quipped: “Maraming mayaman ang naka-motor, hello… Jusko kuya, ano bang mentalidad ‘yan? Ang disiplina hindi lang pang-mahirap, pang-kalahatan ‘yan.”
“Discipline isn’t just for the poor—it’s a responsibility for everyone,” she added. “A truly great country is built when all its citizens uphold order, respect, and responsibility.”
