  We propose a model based on the $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(3)_{L}\otimes U(1)_{X}$
gauge symmetry with an extra $S_{3}\otimes Z_{2}\otimes Z_{4}\otimes Z_{12}$
discrete group, which successfully accounts for the SM quark mass and mixing
pattern. The observed hierarchy of the SM quark masses and quark mixing matrix
elements arises from the $Z_{4}$ and $Z_{12}$ symmetries, which are broken at
very high scale by the $SU(3)_{L}$ scalar singlets ($\sigma$,$\zeta$) and $\tau
$, charged under these symmetries, respectively. The Cabbibo mixing arises from
the down type quark sector whereas the up quark sector generates the remaining
quark mixing angles. The obtained magnitudes of the CKM matrix elements, the CP
violating phase and the Jarlskog invariant are in agreement with the
experimental data.
