00:00 ... yesterday 250. So there's a downward trend of mga nagbabaylay. Hopefully we could achieve this downward trend even without enforcers planning it...

00:16 ... because the authorities know that the MFDA is hot, this is an issue right now, they are involved, let's not get ahead of ourselves, there's that mentality. So hopefully in the weeks to come even if that's not our focus, the authorities will still follow the law on traffic oil drops to busway operations."

00:41 Q: May I ask if there's a senator and 2 congressmen?

00:51 "Yes. Kasi yung guidelines na we are implementing, nakalagay lang doon, bus of course, then emergency responders, ambulansya, police mobile vehicles and mga kumpero. And then government park vehicles.

01:11 Pero government park vehicles, hindi lang basta government park vehicles. Kailangan po ito may law enforcement function atsaka responding to emergency. Para pa lang po hindi maabuso, biruin nyo kung ilan yung government park vehicles natin tapos ilang nakaadaan, may baka magubulunan din po tayo sa busway. So we're trying to give way sa may important function like enforcement atsaka responding to emergency."

01:38 Thank you.
