00:00Extended until 8 p.m. tonight, the consolidation of the jeepneys that's why there's a lot of people chasing.
00:07Those who won't make it, will they be able to make it tomorrow?
00:10That's the live coverage of Oscar Oida.
00:13Oscar.
00:16Yes, Emil, there's really no extension according to LTFRB.
00:21Technically, there will be a tour starting tomorrow.
00:25The passages that are not consolidated.
00:29This is the safe area.
00:33At the same time of the deadline that LTFRB has set for all the jeepneys that are not yet consolidated,
00:40the operator, Fernando Datu, has already assigned 5 of his jeepneys as passengers.
00:48It's already a big amount.
00:50We will pay the LTFRB after the LTO, the penalty.
00:58Then we will have it registered and consolidated.
01:03He might not be able to meet the requirements of LTFRB and just go home to the impounding area.
01:10We will pay P7,500.
01:14Sometimes, we get P6,500.
01:16That's a lot of money.
01:18Instead of just eating, we will have to carry it.
01:21How many families are eating?
01:24After that, they will have to carry it.
01:27According to LTFRB, there's really no extension.
01:30Starting tomorrow, the jeepneys that are not yet consolidated will be toured by Colorum.
01:37But according to LTFRB, there will be no final decision.
01:42We will send a notice and we will give them 5 days to answer.
01:46Whatever is their answer, if there is no merit, then we will cancel their franchise.
01:53Come second week, that will be the start of the final decision.
01:57The cost, if you are apprehended, is 1 year suspension for the driver,
02:03P50,000 for the penalty for the Colorum jeepney.
02:07Aside from that, the vehicle will be impounded.
02:11Earlier, LTFRB officials, particularly here at Regalado Avenue in Quezon City,
02:17were asking for the last minute consolidation.
02:21According to LTFRB, it is possible that 80% of the jeeps in the country will be consolidated.
02:28As of April 23, we have about P150,000.
02:32As of last night, based on our count, we increased to P8,250.
02:40So that would be about P158,000.
02:44So from its previous mark of P76,000,
02:47we are confident that we can bridge the P79,000 to P80,000
02:53of the entire public utility jeep in the entire Philippines will be consolidated.
03:00So what will happen to the jeeps that have not been consolidated?
03:04Is what Mang Fernando did right?
03:06That these will just be impounded?
03:09What they lost is their franchise from LTFRB.
03:13But their registration in LTO is still in existence.
03:18They can convert this into delivery or as a private vehicle
03:30that they can use.
03:34Meanwhile, Emil, LTFRB should be open until 5 p.m.,
03:41particularly here in Regalado Avenue, Quezon City.
03:44But as a consideration to those who are chasing,
03:46they will remain open until 8 p.m.
03:50Emil?
03:52Thank you very much, Oscar Oida.
