sabi kasi ng mga oil companies e yung unrecovered cost sa diesel is 7 pesos, di pa kasama dun yung additional cost ng falling peso/dollar exchange rate. kung kasama daw yun e baka umabot pa sa P8/liter ang unrecovered costs. kaya sabi naman ng mga transport groups, kesyo unti-unti na P1.50/week na increase a gawin na lang minsanan para pag hingi nila ng fare increase e minsanan na din. lugi nga naman sila kung hihingi sila ng fare increase based sa P52.50/liter price ng diesel tapos tataas naman ang price ng P8/liter after 2 months, e di naman na sila bibigyan ng fare increase after 2 months.

heard it in the news too...IMO, gawin na nila para one blow na lang...pareho lang eh kung increment eh...

Ako I would rather it slowly done. Para at least this week its still cheaper than P1.50 than next week. Pera pa rin yun

Better this way... so people can get used to it.

Magpapa-LPG nga ako, eh... hinihintay ko lang makumpleto yung kit. Seems parts are in demand due to gas prices...

matagal ko na sinasabi na dadating ung time na mag breakdown ang law and order pag sobra angry and desperate na ang mga mahihirap...

The govt is still able to keep them calm by using subsidies, cash handouts etc.

Pansin nyo the govt isnt allowing transport fare hike? Puro subsidy lang sa diesel.

Coz the govt doesnt want the transport operators to pass the cost to the commuting public.

Coz if that happens, pag tumaas ang pamasahe, baka magwala na ang mga tao.

Tama, marami ang magiging desperate. Marami nga desperate na. Pero hindi pa umaabot sa critical mass.

Pag umabot na sa critical mass... sa boiling point... we will need to arm ourselves to protect our lives and property.

kawawa naman kami mga diesel fed less option

kung yung gas fed may lpg

medyo OT...i read an article on CNN not so long ago...waste oil from fryers ninanakaw na rin. robbers drive around in tankers and siphon off waste oil when no one's looking. i guess the situation is much more serious sa US since diesel isn't that common. Ung comment din ng isang resto owner, a few months lang he was paying people to get rid of the oil. now he's planning to install a security camera at his storage area B)
