00:21So, we are now providing 10,000 subsidy for each bus unit.
00:30Tapos, yung method of payment, lahat ng klaseng method of payment pwede.
00:37We can do it via digital payment or mga GCash.
00:42You can go into the ATM.
00:45May mga card naman na may hawak naman.
00:47May card naman yung mga driver natin at saka lahat ng operator nag-issue ng card.
00:54Pwede gamitin yun.
00:55Meron pa rin iilan na talagang gusto nila.
01:01Ayaw nilang gawing digital.
01:03Kaya meron pa. Pwede rin. Pwede mag-issue ng cheque.
01:07At kung talagang kahit cash, pwede pa rin.
01:11Pero siguro, mas maging hawak.

01:41Nagbabago yung presyo ng langis all over the world.
01:46Kaya ito ang response ng pamahalaan.
01:50And of course, we are always in need of assistance and support and cooperation with the operators, with the drivers,
02:00yung buong sistema.
