MANILA, Philippines – Militant transport group Piston is set to stage a transport holiday on September 19, Monday, in Metro Manila and adjacent provinces.

Piston secretary general George San Mateo said the transport strike is in protest of the P9 overpricing of the big oil firms.

San Mateo said they are disappointed with the dialogue with President Benigno Aquino III, yielding no concrete and definitive results.

Aside from the alleged overpricing of oil players, San Mateo said the strike is to call the attention of the government to scrap the oil deregulation law and the 12 percent expanded value added tax on petroleum products.

Meanwhile, moderate transport groups Fejodap and Pasang Masda will not join the transport holiday next week.
