Transport Strike

By Car-Addict at 03/14/08 19:52

Not a week ago, the Philippines undergone a national transport strike as major associations of jeeps and buses united to conduct a national transport destabilization.

This event happened due to the associations plea to increase the minimum fare or lower the price of oil in the country. Although the transport strike caused a lot of delay among passengers, the government is fast enough to counter the event.

The National Transportation Management ordered national buses and trucks be deployed on places where major effect o the strike is being felt. A big part of Manila suffered a great delay because thousands of people just walk from their houses to their work. Malls and other shopping centers also complained of loosing millions of pesos because of the event.

During the strike, I saw big Ford Trucks and and towing-like vehicles from GM. They are big and can accommodate 10-20 people on my estimate. Luckily the strike did not affect other parts of the country. The strike concentrated mainly on the national capital region.

At that moment, there were also private vehicles who took advantage of the situation and turned themselves some sort of a taxi. And the fare is double as compared to the normal fare. I saw a luxurious Chevrolet Optra who sidelined as a taxi. There are also SUVs from Ford, like Expedition, who became a service for a company.

I really hope this kind of transport strikes will not happen again to avoid delays, damages and taking advantage of the situation.
