It must be Taft, err, tough, getting spelling right for the technocrats at Manila’s Light Railway Transit.

After that embarrassing signage announcing that train riders have arrived at the “National Bureau of Investagation,” yet another booboo was discovered by observant commuters.

It was also on the Taft Avenue stop where the sign says “University of Philippines Manila” (now covered up). But let’s give it to the LRT management: perhaps there wasn’t much space to add “the” to the signage.

Nevertheless, our fly on the wall tells us that LRT is now recruiting for spelling experts, preferably former kid champions of the National Spelling Bee!
