This photo taken on November 29, 2018 shows Vic Capuno, 52-year-old jeepney artist, painting in one of the jeepneys at a workshop in San Pablo, Laguna province, south of Manila. Capuno, a draughtsman by education who went into jeepney painting in 1987, works along with a colleague on three or four jeepneys a month produced by San Pablo's Armak Motors. As the government runs jeepneys gradually off the road due to pollution and safety concerns, artists like him -- and their work -- are going too. TED ALJIBE / AFP

But pollution and safety concerns have led to a modernisation programme, with jeepneys 15 years or older to be taken off the streets by 2020. Noel CELIS / AFP
