00:00 In other news, the big time price hike in oil products is effective today.
00:05 According to the oil companies, the price of gasoline is 2 pesos and 10 centavos per liter.
00:10 The price of diesel is 3 pesos and 50 centavos.
00:14 This is the biggest increase in diesel this year.
00:18 The price of kerosene is also high, 3 pesos and 25 centavos per liter.
00:23 This is also the highest price for kerosene this year.
00:27 The jeepney drivers and tricycles are getting more and more anxious because of the new round of the oil price hike.
00:36 Here's the news of Darlene Cai.
00:38 There's a queue in some gas stations until last night, like here in Timog Avenue in Quezon City.
00:45 They are trying to get a crudo before the increase in diesel is realized.
00:49 Because of the high price of diesel, the jeepney drivers like Dante are also getting more and more anxious.
00:55 The crudo is increasing, it's not decreasing.
00:58 What we earn is not enough.
01:00 We don't earn much.
01:02 If we don't go out early in the morning, we won't earn much.
01:05 We need to travel early in the morning.
01:07 His discard is that the trip is long.
01:10 He should go out at 5 in the morning.
01:13 But now, he's traveling at 2 in the morning.
01:16 The rainy season is getting more difficult.
01:20 Sometimes, no one rides because it's going to rain.
01:23 It's also difficult to travel, especially now that there's no entry.
01:26 But even so, he only earns P250 to P300 every day.
01:32 There's nothing he can do, like the drivers, because they will have a harder time if they don't travel.
01:38 We don't earn much.
01:40 We earn P600, P700, which is not enough for the house and for the entry.
01:46 Of course, we travel.
01:48 We won't live like that if we don't earn.
01:51 Gilbert's tricycle driver's discard is that he's saving.
01:55 It's also difficult because we don't earn much.
01:59 And of course, especially now that it's raining, it's difficult to ride.
02:09 Darlene Cai reports for GMA Integrated News.
02:13 Dear viewers, some groups are pushing for a big ban on oil products today.
02:19 So we will update you on the protests in Quezon City, on the spot by Oscar Oida.
02:24 Oscar.
02:26 Yes, Connie, it's past 10 in the morning when the group Bayan Muna, KMU, Piston and Kadamay gathered here in the north avenue of Tumas Morato.
02:42 They are against the new oil price hike that is being implemented today, which will cost P3.50 per liter of diesel, P2.10 per liter of gasoline, while P3.25 for kerosene.
02:59 This is the highest price for diesel and kerosene for this year.
03:03 And it's already affected the price of the main goods and services.
03:10 In an open letter, the group Suki called on the government, institutions and individuals to provide assistance to millions of low-income Filipino workers
03:20 who are facing the big time oil price hike after the storm.
03:27 Bayan Muna is determined that the government should give priority to the well-being of the people
03:33 and to make a step to address the rapid increase in crude oil prices.
03:39 Thank you very much, Oscar Oida.
03:42 Here is another incident that happened on the first day of August in the houses of the housewives or the businessmen.
03:51 The increase in the price of the liquefied petroleum gas LPG, P4.55 per kilo of LPG of Petron and Solene.
04:01 And in the LPG of Petron, P2.54 per liter.
04:09 The other companies of LPG have not yet announced.
04:12 However, the Department of Energy will implement the price freeze in LPG and kerosene in the areas that are in a state of calamity.
04:20 I am counting there, Cavite, Ilocos Norte, Sanchez Mira, Cagayan and Mountain Province. Even in Camiling, Tarlac, Paumbong, Bulacan, Balanga, Bataan and several towns in Pampanga.
04:33 The price freeze is effective within 15 days since the implementation of the state of calamity.
04:39 Aside from the oil and LPG price hike, there is also a rise in LRT this month.
04:45 We have on the spot, Joseph Moro.
04:50 Yes, Connie. Tomorrow, LRT Line 1 and Line 2 will start to increase.
04:59 We are here at LRT Line 2 where usually there are many students but since there are no entrances yet, there are no students yet.
05:06 But when they enter, maybe on the third or fourth week of August, that will be the time they will be welcomed.
05:11 The additional fare, Connie, is 2 pesos and 29 centavos for the boarding fare and 21 centavos for every kilometer of travel.
05:20 For example, here at LRT 2, the current 12 pesos minimum fare or the cheapest fare will be 14 pesos minimum for those who use BIP cards.
05:31 33 pesos will be the maximum fare from Recto to Antipolo Station from LRT Line 2 from the previous 28 pesos only.
05:41 If you are a single journey or you are just a regular passenger here at LRT 2,
05:47 you will have to pay 15 pesos minimum and 35 pesos will be the maximum from the previous 30 pesos or an additional 5 pesos at the end of the fare.
06:00 At LRT Line 1, the same will be the case.
06:02 14 pesos will be the new minimum fare and 35 pesos will be the maximum for those who use stored value cards.
06:10 For single journey tickets, the minimum will be 15 pesos and 35 pesos will be the maximum for the new fare.
06:19 According to Light Rail Manila Corporation or LRMC, the private company that runs LRT Line 1,
06:26 they will be able to help collect additional fare for their operation.
06:31 This is a lower price if they want to collect from the time they started operating in 2016.
06:38 But this will also help them recover the 1.46 billion fare deficit.
06:45 They will make sure that the public will be able to pay the additional fare for the upgrades to the trains and their services.
06:53 Connie, there are no students yet but we have talked to some of them.
06:56 They said that they will be the only ones to adjust.
07:00 Even now, they are already spending their allowance on massages.
07:07 Here are their statements, Connie.
07:12 The allowance for massages is big.
07:23 How much is the allowance?
07:25 It's not that much.
07:27 It's always like that.
07:29 Even for shopping, they are increasing the allowance.
07:38 Connie, even though the allowance for LRT 1 and 2 is increasing,
07:44 according to the LRTA and the Department of Transportation,
07:47 the government is still paying subsidies.
07:50 The government is paying P148 per passenger for LRT Lines 1 and 2.
07:58 Thank you very much, Joseph Morong.
