00:00On the first day of Tigil Pasada, the group of Pistons filed a new petition to the Supreme Court to stop the UPUV modernization program.
00:12Oscar Oida was live.
00:15Oscar?
00:17Mel, the group of Pistons mobilized separately on the first day of their Tigil Pasada.
00:28But despite this, according to the LTFRB, the public transportation in Metro Manila was not paralyzed.
00:39The Pistons mobilized early in the morning in different parts of Metro Manila.
00:45They gathered here in Maycaruncho Avenue in Pasig.
00:50As the start of the three-day Tigil Pasada against the jeepney modernization,
00:55tomorrow is the deadline for the consolidation.
00:59They say that many have consolidated.
01:03But even those who consolidated, there are many rumors, if you will listen to the past.
01:10What the government did was not effective in forcing consolidation.
01:16But until now, the government has not admitted it.
01:21The group of their fellow jeepney drivers joined in the petition.
01:26But there is a continuation to the trip.
01:29We will just pass three turns. After three turns, we will leave.
01:34You can, but you don't have a car in your house.
01:36We are just passing through, but the officer said that we are just traveling because our vehicle has been consolidated.
01:41Protests were also held in other places, such as Laguna.
01:46According to the LTFRB, the jeepney was not paralyzed today.
01:52It seems that the strike had no effect in terms of paralyzation of the public transportation system,
02:00with special emphasis on areas where the presence of pistons is very strong,
02:06like Divisoria, Sucat, and here in Quezon Avenue and Commonwealth.
02:12If you notice, there are no pistons. You can see that the vehicle is paralyzed.
02:20Even so, they are preparing their rescue bus in case they need it.
02:26Yesterday, the police force also spread out in case there is a riot or chaos.
02:32The LTFRB insisted that they will not extend the penalty given to those who have not yet consolidated.
02:39This afternoon, the Pistons filed an amended petition to the Supreme Court
02:44to stop the PUV modernization program.
02:47Can the Supreme Court make a TRO while the Supreme Court has not yet made a decision?
02:52Because if the franchise is canceled from tomorrow,
02:57even if we win the petition, can we still return it?
03:00As a consideration, the LTFRB said that they will accept
03:07even the minimum requirements.
03:10We will give them 6 to 9 months to at least comply with all the documentary requirements.
03:16But in the meantime, just to show proof that they are really sincere
03:22in their advocacy and joining the government,
03:27we will just allow them to have at least the minimum requirements.
03:32Their petition, their cooperative, is proof that they are already cooperative.
03:37And their ORCR, in the meantime, I will just say that it's okay.
03:46Meanwhile, Mel, as they continue their mobilization,
03:50the Pistons and other groups that support them
03:55will also join them to shout their continued advocacy for the Jeepney Modernization.
04:01Mel?
04:02Thank you very much, Oscar Oida.
