The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) issued a show cause order against the operator of a taxi accused of overcharging Korean singer Soobin in Cebu. LTFRB Chair Vigor Mendoza called it a serious offense that tarnishes the country's image internationally. The operator was also ordered to surrender the vehicle's license plate and the driver's license.

Following LTFRB probes into bus operators, the Philippine National Police is intensifying monitoring of public utility vehicle operators illegally raising fares due to Middle East-driven fuel price surges. PNP chief Gen. Jose Melencio Nartatez Jr. warned against exploiting the crisis, with police assisting regulators to protect commuters.
