00:00I would also like to mention to Secretary Vince Dizon what the government can do so that commuters won't have a hard time.
00:12We have free rides that we can provide.
00:15We would also like to ask Secretary Vince Dizon to discuss the management of Manibela
00:23because we should remember that not only the government can have an impact,
00:32but also the commuters.
00:34We should remember that commuters are innocent and are just put in the middle.
00:41What Secretary Vince Dizon wants is for them to discuss and give to the new leader of the DOTR what they want.
00:50We hope that commuters won't be affected.
00:53For now, our commuters are not yet affected,
00:58especially since the administration has been preparing for a long time to help those commuters who might be inconvenienced.
01:07And then lastly, according to Secretary Dizon, only 43% are consolidated.
01:14When it comes to PV modernization, what is your position, President Marcos?
01:18We will study that 43% and we will ask that all that can happen is for the commuters,
01:26but also for the jeepney operators and drivers.
01:29All of this because we should have a win-win solution.
