 Hi Edward, Here are the most important news that you need to know. The Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) on Friday denied a petition for a P1 provisional fare hike for public utility jeepneys (PUJs) by several transport groups to help them cope with the sharp increases in oil prices.LTFRB Executive Director Maria Kristina Cassion said the board “judiciously” balanced the rights of the riding public “vis-à-vis the right of the operators to financial returns” in rejecting the petition. The International Energy Agency (IEA) on Friday urged governments to implement immediate measures to cut global oil consumption within months following supply fears stemming from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.  LAGUNA-PAMPANGA LINE The first of the Japan-made trains of the North-South Commuter Railway arrives at the project’s Malanday depot in Valenzuela City on Friday. —GRIG C. MONTEGRANDE  Since he started working as a driver in 2004, Salvador Bernardo always begins his day at around 5:30 a.m., carrying passengers in his jeepney between Projects 2 and 3 in Quezon City and Quiapo and Taft Avenue in Manila. In the face of joblessness, reduced income because of the pandemic, and the rising cost of living, the niggardly monthly subsidy of P200 is an insult, with the government saying in effect that the suffering of those most in need is of little consequence. |
