00:00 "Siyempre di ko masabi na nag-agree ako na pinaka-worst tayo sa buong mundo kasi di ko naman din alam yung sitwasyon sa ibang bansa on a yearly basis.
00:14 Kaya gusto kong malaman ano yung methodology na i-employ consistent sa ibang bansa na din ang i-employ ng methodology to get yung data apple pa apple by comparison.
00:32 Kasi kung sasabihin mo na GPS lang nasa project dahil baka kami yung nakasubscribe yan sa Tumtum, ano oras gusto mo naman?
00:44 Mga office workers ito naman nasa Tumtum in which case rush hour yan more likely, sabaga sa hapon. So we really want to know and we will communicate with them para na po kami compare sa data.
01:00 As I've said mayroon na po cover discrepancy if they're saying kesa na pinaka-BCS sa Metro Manila. Hindi po yung consistent sa aming data."
