00:00The number of passengers in PITX and IA increased two days before All Saints Day.
00:07Raffy Tima witnessed it.
00:08Most of the passengers have already boarded but the number of passengers in PITX in Paranaque has increased.
00:16It's normal for people to board a vehicle after a few days because of Hurricane Christine.
00:21Tomorrow is our peak. We might reach 200,000.
00:25The bus terminal is continuously monitoring Hurricane Leon so that they can notify the passengers who might be affected.
00:32We are just monitoring if the condition of the passengers is okay so that if it's not okay, we can stop them so that our passengers have an option to go home if ever.
00:42This afternoon, PITX was one of the first to be inspected by Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista
00:48along with officials from LTFRB, LTO, and HPG.
00:53Passenger safety is a priority so drug testing of bus drivers is one of the top priorities.
00:58Aside from ensuring the safety of the passengers in the bus units,
01:02during the inspection, one of the bus units was found to have a wrong route.
01:06It was immediately corrected.
01:08In every major terminal, LTFRB issued a special permit for areas where the number of passengers is insufficient.
01:18Following the inspection of Nino Aquino International Airport,
01:21the number of passengers in the three terminals of Paliparan was noticed.
01:25This is the first season. Starting October 29, there are around 130,000.
01:36130,000 and we're expecting that it will increase to around 130,000 to 235,000 a day.
01:45The new management of IA has admitted that a lot of things need to be fixed
01:49even though the baggage handling system has been out of order for a long time.
01:53It's too old, just like other goods in Paliparan.
01:57They say it's easy to replace it because of the bureaucracy in the government.
02:01This is our growth here in the private sector. It's fast.
02:06The Terms of Reference that we're doing is fast.
02:09There are no publications in the diaries.
02:11If we just tell Mr. Ramon Ang that this is needed, we need to buy this,
02:16right there and there, we'll be ordered right away.
02:18That's why I think the problems here at the airport can be easily addressed.
02:24Next, the air bridges where passengers pass from the airplane to the terminal are to be fixed,
02:30which is the reason for the delay in the departure of passengers if the weather is bad.
02:35Half of the aircon units in Paliparan also need to be replaced.
02:39For GMI Integrated News, I'm Rafi Timang.
02:42Saksi!
