    Paglabas ko ng bahay kanina, going to a meeting, eto ang isa sa una kong nakita.

    This is unusual na halos umabot sa Samar Avenue ang pila ng pasahero ng MRT sa GMA Kamuning station.

    I'd rather take the bus, if i can't afford a cab or can't drive a car.

    i used to take MRT - LRT. but now, bihira na. i'd rather take the bus or take a cab nalang if wala talagang magamit na sasakyan. sa haba ng pila and the effort just to ride the train, i'd rather pay extra nalang.

    What do you expect from a goverment-manage company. Laki ng subsidy tinatapon at di kumikita. They should get out of this business...

    mas maganda talaga pag public-private partnership. mas maganda sigurado pagka maintain ng mga facilities.

    when i was in manila last two weeks ago, kami ni esmi usually gamit ay MRT.
    i can bear the long que but not the EDSA traffic... biruin mo ang ruta namin ay north avenue to pasay.
    pag inumpisahan yung elevated highway ay siguradong mas malalala pa yan.
    they should add more trains ASAP. imho, the fare shall not be subsidized by the govt

    Ang masa gusto ng convenience at efficient na system pero ayaw magdagdag ng bayad sa pasahe.

    Lumala ata scenario ngayon sa train system natin, sa LRT lang hanggang kalsada na din ang pila sa baba.

    Sabi ko nga makita ko pa lang yung pila parang gusto ko na agad mag sick leave hehe.

    You can't just add more train running at the same time, mag traffic din yan sa tracks.

    Before i experience sa LRT antagal ng hinto ng train per station, nag aabot kasi yung mga train.

    Dapat palitan ng bago yung train natin, tapos i-maintain religiously.

    ang laking abala pag nasira ang MRT / LRT napaparalisa nito ang majority, isama mo pa yung traffic sa kalsada.

    mas gusto ko na tumaas na ang pamasahe ng LRT/MRT. to the point na mga 60-80 pesos na. para wala ng masyadong sumakay. at least well magkakaroon na ng budget ang operator to maintain the stations and the trains.

    ^ Para yung mga mababango at makikinis na lang kaya sumakay sa tren. :D

    Kapag may time oo, kapag nagmamadali, taxi na lang.

    Depends on the time of the day too. I sometimes take the MRT but never during peak hours. My wife used to as well but i'd rather drive to drop off and fetch her rather than subject her to getting crashed or held up in a bus, or squished in the MRT.

    I really feel for the office personnel who have to go through this every miserable day. Grabe din daw yung mga hard core manyak na nanghihipo.

    The LRT fares we have are waaay too low if we compare it with what is charged in other countries IM).

    Try mo ng 6:30am onwards (North ave southbound) or 5:30pm onwards (taft northbound) ang lala ng pila!

    naalala ko nun BF-GF pa lang kami ni esmi, ihahatid ko siya sa sakayan sa q.ave

    from buendia sakay na kami southbound para roundtrip and nakaupo kami.

    walang pag asa kung buendia ka sasakay papuntang q. ave siksikan talaga.

    Kawawa brod yung mga sumasakay dun na students pati mga minimum wage earners. Lately, sumakay ako ng LRT and nakita ko yung mga type ng tao na kadalasang sakay dito. Isipin nyo na lang kung hindi isubsidize ng govt yung fare ng mass transport, lahat maaapektuhan din kahit mga average earners dahil sa baon na ibibigay nila sa mga anak nilang estudyante. Paano pa yung mga construction workers na kumikita ng 250/day. IMHO

    yung north ave to pasay, mas mabilis ba ang taxi? ito yung topic namin ni esmi nung pasakay pa lang ng MRT kung ano ang mas mabilis... taxi o mrt sa ruta na ito. about 35 minutes yung sa MRT pero di namin na try sa taxi.
    re:MRT fare... i feel guilty when i learned na 15 pesos lang ang bayad from notrh ave o pasay and vv. kaya pala hindi well-maintain ang mga train facilities dahil masyadong mababa ang singil. nagtataka naman ako sa mga oppositionists sa fare hike kung ano gusto nila palabasin?

    I also agree na taasan na dapat yung fare ng MRT and LRT, nasasayang ang taxpayers money na ginagamit ng governement pang subsidize on both railway. Hindi na nga kumikita, nalalaspag pa ng husto yung mga tren, pag nasira, pera nanaman ng tax payers gagamitin.

    and yes, ako gusto ko tumaas yung pasahe para kahit papano mafilter yung mga sasakay.
