00:00On the other hand, despite the generous funds allocated for several infrastructure projects in the National Budget 2025,

00:07the Transportation Department promised that the implementation of their projects will not be affected.

00:12According to Transportation Secretary Jaime Bautista, they have assurance from their developing partners for their big projects

00:19such as North-South Commuter Railway and Metro Manila Subway.

00:22We talked to ADB, JICA, and KECSIM.

00:27And with the support of the Department of Budget and Management, which will be issued by SARO,

00:34we will continue to implement the big programs of the Department of Transportation.

00:41In the program of Bagong Pilipinas Ngayon, Bautista distributed the successes of their agency just last year.

00:47Just like the privatization of Manila International Airport, GIIT ng Kalihim,

00:51it will not only be a convenient and good service if it does not contribute to the government's earnings in the next period.

00:59Because of our privatization, the government will earn almost Php 900 billion for the next 25 years.

01:11Meanwhile, in the past, the MIAA only earns Php 2-3 billion a year.

01:19DOTR also promised that they will continue their efforts to maintain the Philippines on the International Maritime Organization's whitelist

01:26that is important for the economy and marine or seafarers of the country.

01:29At the same time, Secretary Bautista also promised that after the LRT-1 extension,

01:34more passengers will be able to use the LRT-1 to travel faster from Baclaran to Sucat,

01:40which takes an hour.

01:42Now, the travel time is only 15 minutes.

01:44The traffic in Metro Manila, based on the study of JICA,

01:49the economic cost to us is Php 3.5 billion a day.

01:54So with the operation or the extension of LRT-1,

02:00the economic cost of traffic will be reduced.

02:04Meanwhile, in the latest DOTR update,

02:07from 83% to 86% of the roads have been consolidated for the Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program.

02:14At the same time, they are doing a route rationalization

02:17with the LGUs for sustainable and profitable routes,

02:21where 20% of the roads have been completed.

02:23The DOTR plans for the privatization of the EDSA busway were also discussed in our program,

02:28which is expected to finish the Terms of Reference in the first quarter of the year.

02:31Also, the privatization of Lagindingan and Bohol Airport

02:34will increase the capacity of the roads.

02:36The DOTR also expects that the construction of MRT-4 will start in 2026

02:41while the North-South Commuter Railway will end in 2030.
