00:00At the end of the year, many of us plan to travel and go on vacation.

00:05But one of the major concerns is the safety of our families, especially those on long drives.

00:12You're right, Audrey.

00:13And to ask for tips on that and to ask for an update on the Jeep Demodernization Program in the country,

00:19we have with us again Mr. Orlando Marquez, the President of the League of Transportation and Operators in the Philippines.

00:26So, Elta, good morning, Mr. Orlando.

00:28Good morning, sir. Good morning, sir Audrey.

00:30Good morning.

00:31It's a good morning because when I arrived here, I had to travel for two hours.

00:36In such a short time.

00:37From Taguig to here.

00:39Okay.

00:40Before anything else, please update our countrymen on where we are when it comes to the Jeep Demodernization Program.

00:49You know, the Jeep Demodernization Program is a good idea, sir Audrey.

00:53First of all, I would like to encourage our countrymen because in the Jeepney,

01:00it was proven that I was the first one to modernize in 1996.

01:05In Makati, the aircon jeepney that runs until now, the aircon jambo jeepney,

01:11our routes in the jeepney are the most painful that we have received until now.

01:17The route of the jeepney was run by the buses.

01:21That is what killed us now.

01:24What the pandemic said was that it was only temporary.

01:28After that, it will return to the route.

01:30But now, they were the first ones to give the franchise to our routes.

01:37That is why it is so painful, sir Edie.

01:41Because we expect it to be good.

01:45We are the ones who modernized the jeepney.

01:49A genuine jeepney.

01:51I always mention this.

01:54Because of the modernization of the jeepney,

01:58it was not the jeepney that modernized.

02:00The jeepney was just upgraded to a minibus.

02:04That is a minibus.

02:05Yes, a minibus.

02:06That is why you should not call it a jeepney.

02:08You are right, sir Audrey.

02:09Because it is a national land vehicle of the Philippines.

02:13Look at it.

02:14Is that a jeepney?

02:15Is that a modernized jeepney?

02:16That is a bus.

02:17That is a bus, right?

02:18Grade 1.

02:19If you put the jeepney next to the bus,

02:23it will teach you the truth.

02:25That is why we should not curse our youth,

02:29our Filipino people,

02:31because the name of the public transport jeepney

02:36was legislated by the Congress and the Senate.

02:39And it was proclaimed that the national land vehicle of the Philippines is a jeepney.

02:44Please do not make the Filipinos stupid.

02:47Sorry for my words.

02:49Because we love our Filipino people.

02:53They are smart and good.

02:55But please do not curse our heritage

02:58that has the same name as the Filipino public transport.

03:02Please do not do that.

03:04You are right, Kalando.

03:05Because this jeepney, Audrey, is the only one we have in the world.

03:09It is a traditional jeepney.

03:11It is part of our culture.

03:12Yes, it is our culture.

03:13But let's go back to the modernization that Kalando was talking about.

03:16For the public to know,

03:18when this modernization program is completed,

03:21the fare will increase.

03:22In your estimate, how much will it increase?

03:25You know, the word increase has a process.

03:29We go through the right process

03:32with our NEDA.

03:35We have to go through a process.

03:38Because it is not just that.

03:40Sometimes, it is just a fear.

03:43But in reality,

03:45if we put it like now,

03:48if you go to Makati,

03:50even if the traffic is heavy in Makati,

03:54our jeepney that is air-conditioned in Makati,

03:57we are the only ones who are asking for 13 pesos

04:01for the jeepney to be massaged.

04:03That is why now, we plan to increase it

04:06because our traffic is heavy.

04:08Because we cannot talk.

04:09Before you can go around,

04:11you have to count 2 hours before you can go around the route

04:15that is less than 10 kilometers.

04:17Okay.

04:18What are the features that you are producing,

04:21the prototypes of the e-jeepney?

04:24Our e-jeepney is new

04:27that is being produced by Chavit

04:30because he is our backup

04:33who will provide the electric jeepney

04:36with zero down payment,

04:37zero interest, rent-to-own,

04:39and he will also build a solar electric power station.

04:45So, this is what we really want.

04:48We want modernization

04:50because we want to keep up.

04:53We just want to put it in the right name, configuration,

04:58and if you say jeepney,

05:01don't build a minibus in front of me

05:04because I haven't been born yet.

05:06Okay, okay.

05:07We can see on the monitor,

05:08these are the prototypes of the modernized jeepney.

05:11It looks like a jeepney, Joshua.

05:14Yes.

05:15The tradition is still there.

05:17Yes, there are good people.

05:19It still looks like that, right?

05:21But it is looser.

05:23It can walk inside.

05:24It can stand.

05:25It can stand.

05:26It's not like before when you ride it.

05:28But let's go back to the safety of this holiday season.

05:32Yes.

05:33If we heard about the past days,

05:35the past weeks,

05:36there have been car accidents on the roads.

05:38Some have died.

05:39From your perspective,

05:41what can you advise our countrymen

05:43to save themselves from accidents this holiday season?

05:46First of all,

05:47if we look at the problem of obtaining a license,

05:51here in the Philippines,

05:53aside from the difficulty of obtaining a license,

05:56there is a lack of education.

05:58If I were to say professional,

06:01our professional drivers here in the Philippines,

06:05this is the largest number in the whole world

06:09that lacks education.

06:11That is why we are urging all of us,

06:14the national public transportation leaders,

06:18to pass our knowledge in driving through the curriculum.

06:24Because our drivers are considered professional

06:28when it comes to obtaining a license,

06:30but their knowledge is not professional.

06:35Okay, okay.

06:36It's like this.

06:37No matter how careful you are in driving,

06:39but if the person you are going to meet

06:41really lacks knowledge in proper driving,

06:44it will be a disgrace.

06:46So, do you suggest that those who drive,

06:49especially those who are older,

06:50those who drive trucks and buses,

06:52that they should really be careful

06:55when it comes to obtaining a license

06:57to drive such large vehicles?

06:59You are right, Sir Audrey.

07:01Because first of all,

07:03driving as a professional is not a joke.

07:07Once you are on the road,

07:09on the mountain,

07:10on the road,

07:11on anything,

07:13because your body is just a loss break.

07:16Sometimes, when you have an accident,

07:19the driver forces you that he will really

07:21strangle you,

07:23so that there is a reason when it comes to investigation.

07:27That is why here, fellow countrymen,

07:29I hope that all of us in the Philippines

07:33will study properly before we drive,

07:38especially in a public vehicle.

07:41And if you happen to go to Aberdeen,

07:44if you have an accident,

07:45what advice do you have?

07:46What can motorists do

07:48so that they won't cause more traffic?

07:51Because that is usually the reason

07:54why the traffic is so heavy

07:55because of an accident.

07:57He is explaining,

07:58he is waiting for the...

07:59He is already answering,

08:00he is waiting for the enforcer.

08:02You know, first of all,

08:03what I can say here is that

08:05our fellow Filipinos are very good

08:08when it comes to driving.

08:10However, what we really lack is education.

08:14We lack training, seminars, education,

08:18and here,

08:19we really have a Filipino attitude

08:22that sometimes,

08:23we forget the rules and regulations

08:27and the patience when driving on the road.

08:31There is no giving.

08:32Especially now, there is so much traffic.

08:35That is why it is so heavy.

08:36Let us adjust.

08:37So that we won't be shouting,

08:39we will leave early.

08:40Let us plan our trips during the holiday season.

08:43Thank you so much, Karl Lando,

08:46for visiting us

08:47and sharing your knowledge with us

08:49when it comes to the transportation industry.

08:53Thank you so much, Sir Audrey.

08:55To all of our viewers,

08:58from Luzon, Visayas, Mindanao,

08:59to other countries,

09:00to the whole world,

09:02thank you so much.

09:03Good morning,

09:04good evening,

09:05good afternoon,

09:06and good afternoon.

09:07Thank you so much, Karl Lando.
