LEGAZPI CITY, July 30 (PIA) -- The Land Transportation Office (LTO) in the Bicol region launched on Tuesday a poster and slogan making contest at the multi-purpose hall of Sto. Domingo National High School, Albay.

Some 26 high school students from Sto Domingo National High School, San Fernando National High School, Alimsog Integrated High School and Bical National High School qualified for the competition after the pre-evaluation and seminar on road safety conducted by the LTO in the region on July 19 this year.

The winner will be chosen based on the following criteria: relevance to the theme (30%), creativity (30%), originality (30%) and impact and presentation (10%).

Magistrado said three winners will be chosen from the contestants. They will receive a cash prize and plaque of appreciation

The champion will receive a cash prize of P5,000, P3,000 for the second prize and P2,000 for the third placer. The rest of the contestants will have a consolation prize of P200 and certificates of appreciation.

The artworks of the winners, added Magistrado, will be used as promotional materials and reminders in roadside streamers and placards for motorists and other road users.
