00:00The group of Pistons did not plan to buy in Taas Pasahe despite the big-time oil price hike today.
00:06But they have a request from the government.
00:09We will get to that in detail in this episode of On The Spot with Joseph Moro.
00:12Joseph?
00:16Yes, Connie. The group of Pistons protested because of the new big-time oil price hike that started today here in Maifulkoa.
00:25The group of Pistons is protesting for almost P3.00 per litre for the additional price of gasoline and diesel.
00:33This is P2.65 per litre of gasoline and P2.70 for diesel.
00:41According to the group, this is a huge reduction in their income.
00:45For example, P81.00 per day or P2,000 per month
00:51is what the average jeepney driver will lose if he consumes 30 litres of diesel per day.
00:59They called on the government to remove the Oil Deregulation Law.
01:04They also said that it is not right to raise the price because there is a tension in other parts of the world
01:09because there is a stock of diesel and gasoline in oil companies that were bought at a cheaper price.
01:16They also said that they have no intention of filing a fare hike petition to the LTFRB
01:23because it is also right for passengers.
01:26For the motorcycle taxi and delivery service drivers who depend on gasoline,
01:32it also has an effect on their income because the amount of gasoline they fund will be less.
01:39Here is what some riders said.
01:42It's high, but it's nothing.
01:46I know it should be P52.00. Now it's P54.00.
01:51What effect will that have on you?
01:54Of course, it's like a loss because it's more expensive.
02:04We are just talking to the LTFRB Chairman, Attorney Chofi Loguarez III.
02:09He has a position in the Department of Transportation.
02:12He said that this is to expedite the issuance of a fuel subsidy for our fellow drivers.
02:21Attorney Guadis said that P10,000 can be given as a fuel subsidy for modern jeepneys
02:29and P6,000 for traditional jeepneys and P1,500 for tricycle drivers.
02:39But only those who have consolidated their units will receive it.
02:45Thank you very much, Joseph Morong.
03:38Thank you very much.
