Transcript
00:00 "Buling na buhay" calls for a surcharge or a higher fare for jeeps during rush hour.
00:06 What can the drivers and commuters say?
00:09 We have live news, Darling Cai.
00:12 Darling!
00:15 We have shared our opinions with the driver and passengers about the higher fare.
00:21 But they all complain about the increasingly difficult life now.
00:27 [Engine noise]
00:30 The price of crude oil is rising every week.
00:34 Every week that passes, it becomes more difficult for jeepney drivers like Manuel.
00:40 He has 14 children.
00:42 That's why it's a big challenge to budget his income of P400 to P800 per day.
00:49 It's expensive to buy, Ma'am.
00:51 It's like we're short on budget.
00:55 Fred also says that they are just trying to make ends meet to fit the daily budget.
01:02 The budget is too high.
01:05 That's why our trip is not enough.
01:07 And there are no students yet.
01:11 They are both in favor of the group called Pasang Mazda
01:15 which added a rush hour rate from 5 am to 8 am
01:20 and from 5 pm to 8 pm.
01:24 The diesel price has also increased.
01:27 It's now P64.
01:30 That's why we sometimes don't have enough income.
01:36 For me, the P100 is a big thing.
01:39 It's better than nothing.
01:41 But other drivers like Rocky are not in favor of this.
01:44 It's hard for commuters to travel at high speeds.
01:48 It's better to lower the diesel price
01:53 so that it's not hard for the passengers.
01:57 Some passengers say that they are also having a hard time.
02:01 That's why they hope that the diesel price will not increase.
02:04 We, commuters, are also having a hard time.
02:08 The salary has increased, but the diesel price and the shopping has increased.
02:16 I hope that the diesel price will not increase.
02:18 The increase in the salary is also a part of the system.
02:24 The increase in the salary also adds to the difficulty.
02:27 Others say that they understand the situation.
02:30 For me, it's okay because our time is really hard.
02:37 Yes, it's just a P1.
