00:00 The Pistons and Manibelas have no more reason to stop tomorrow and Tuesday
00:05 as part of the Franchise Consolidation under the PUV Modernization.
00:09 But in the province, there are some groups that will not withdraw.
00:12 Marisol Abdramal was there.
00:14 The two-day transport strike of their transport group has been going on since tomorrow until Tuesday.
00:22 According to the Pistons, they are expecting to withdraw from the country in the next 100,000.
00:28 The Pistons say that they are not only interested in what is being discussed here,
00:32 but also in the computers that they will have a hard time with if the traditional jeeps are completely gone.
00:37 Are you saying that this is really a no-choice, last resort, transport strike?
00:42 For the government to see the importance of our public transport.
00:48 The Manibela group said that they will not withdraw from the PUV Modernization Program,
00:53 but only in some provisions.
00:55 Some commuters are worried about the two-day shutdown.
00:59 It's hard to commute.
01:03 There's a strike, so if there's a strike, it's hard to travel on Monday.
01:08 When the MMDA will confirm, they are ready.
01:11 We are very optimistic that we can handle this well and we will ensure that our passengers will not be paralyzed.
01:18 Their plans are already laid out, including DOTR, LTFRV, PNP, and LGU.
01:25 There are already rescue vehicles that are being deployed even if there is a shortage of vehicles.
01:30 The MMDA said that in the last strike, only 28% of the vehicles they prepared were affected.
01:37 This is also what is expected now, especially that only a few groups will be displaced.
01:41 Like in Bicol, where some transport groups will not be included in the shutdown.
01:46 Even in Northern Luzon, the deadline for the PUVMP is April 30.
01:52 DOTR said that if it is not consolidated, the franchise will be removed, but there is a process.
01:58 After April 30, they should not be displaced.
02:02 We will make a process to properly implement the deadline for consolidation.
02:08 The government's various agencies are recognizing and respecting the movement of their transport groups,
02:14 but they appeal to make this peaceful, as the Pistons and Manibelas were shot.
