00:00 Some young people are already worried about the problems that have been resolved at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport, or NIIA.
00:07 Here's the report from Louisa Erizpe.

00:42 This was taken by netizen Kadmel Jared Pabilan, or Curb, who is waiting at the terminal.

01:10 It's a fairly decent size.
01:12 It looks like the ones in Canal.
01:14 So I don't know if there's an issue with the pipeline from the airport to the drainage.
01:20 Maybe that's where it came from.
01:22 And then, the water is fairly healthy.
01:25 It's noteworthy that the NIIA's management just finished the damage control on the issue of the "surot" or bed bugs
01:32 that were found on the seats in Terminal 3.
01:34 It went viral on social media after a passenger was bitten.
01:39 Aside from the constant reaction of netizens, some lawmakers have also spoken on the issue.
01:46 OFW Party List Representative Marisa Magsino said,
01:50 "This situation in the Philippines is already a matter of concern, which is causing bad experiences to the passengers."
01:57 She also added, "If the congestion problem inside the airport and the heavy traffic outside it is still going to be a problem,
02:04 it will not only be a burden to the Filipinos, but it will also damage the image of the country."
02:10 If Senator Grace is the one who will be questioned, not only in the Philippines will there be a problem like this,
02:15 but I hope that the cleaning of the NIIA will be a standard procedure.
02:20 Senator JV Ejersto believes that with the new management of the NIIA, the procedures in the terminals will be better.
02:29 I'm hoping that with the privatization of NIIA, I'm not thinking about it, but if Ramon comes in, he's a visionary and he gets things done,
02:41 I think he will make sure that there will be considerable improvement.
02:47 According to the pest control of NIIA, they are investigating how the bugs are getting inside.
02:54 Their inspection is also ongoing.
02:57 The focus is on the entry points.
03:00 The parking lot can be used as an entry point.
03:03 Usually, what we do in the airport is traffic.
03:07 Traffic in areas where it is not visible to the passengers.
03:12 Pitting for the cleaners, especially in the places where the garbage is being thrown.
03:18 In the issue of garbage, passengers are noticing the metal seats in the terminal.
03:25 But passengers are calling for the management of NIIA.
03:29 They should be supervising weekly so that they can clean every other day or once a week.
03:38 They should be sprayed.
03:40 They should clean because it's for us.
03:45 They should be sprayed. If this is what's happening, they should be sprayed to clean this place so that others will be pitied.
03:55 Manila International Airport Authority assured that they are doing everything so that the incidents will not happen again.
04:03 Around the clock, their housekeeping and maintenance personnel will clean the facilities that passengers use.
04:10 The MIAA denied that there was neglect in their job.
04:15 These things happen. But it's not right to say that we neglected because we cannot afford to do that.
04:22 We have a promise to our passengers that we will make sure that their travel will be pleasant while they are inside the airport.
04:33 MIAA added that they will have a team to handle the issue with their service providers.
04:40 We will revisit our contracts with them and make sure that the commitments that they promised to do in their contracts are being done.
04:50 There are also things that need to be enhanced as far as their procedures are concerned.
04:57 This will be an exchange of ideas, discussion, to make sure that all possible improvement areas can be developed.
