Hino turns over modern PUV to Lung Center

MANILA:  Hino Motors Philippines (HMP), the country’s exclusive manufacturer and distributor of Hino trucks and buses, officially donated a modern PUV to the Lung Center of the Philippines (LCP) in Quezon City recently. The donated unit was one of three modern PUVs that HMP lent LCP at the height of the pandemic.

    “We are glad to have been able to support our frontline workers and our country during this critical time. At the core of what we do at Hino Motors Philippines is our passion and commitment to bring people and goods to wherever they need to be in the most efficient way possible, and this partnership with LCP has allowed us to do that.
