    What made them think these road closures without work suspensions for at least affected ncr areas was even possible?

    They already know what happens even with just a single lane closure at Edsa, what more for full road closures. Where they so out of touch with realities to know that these will affect the commuting/motoring working public in these areas?

    Spent a lazy late afternoon/early evening sojourn yesterday at the ATC with wifey.... Went through C5 south in a breeze and entered SLEX south with light traffic....(well, of course Bicutan and Sucat interchanges are always the main causes of the slowdown)....

    As expected,- traffic along East Service Road (I assume northbound) was already overflowing at C5.... C5 north traffic, on the other hand, was backed-up a kilometer further south of Heritage Park....

    I feel for those who were caught in the monstrous traffic yesterday... The Traffic Management Group should not have done the blocking of these roads... As I was ranting earlier here,- they are "geniuses", paid in blood, sweat and tears by our tax money.....

    LOL. Shameless plug! Maybe Toyota will gift you with the media unit once it's done with.

    Somebody really dropped the ball on this. Sana next year i-declare na lang na nonworking holiday.

    imho the squatting that those "protesters" did on EDSA did more harm than good in furthering their cause. Feeling ko mas maraming nainis sa ginawa nila kesa nagsimpatiya. Akala ko ba nakikiisa sila sa pulis/SAF44, e sila naman ang naki girian sa pulis kahapon. Hypocrites

    And how many were they btw? And they're asking P-Noy to step down, form a transitional government? The last time i checked, it took more than a village(of idiots) to stage a revolution. Do they really represent the masses, or just the people with their hands shoved up their *$$es and using them like puppets?

    So now it's our fault we got stuck in traffic yesterday..

    PEOPLE POWERLESS | Gov't celebration stops traffic, strands Metro Manilans on EDSA

    The Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) had already advised the public a day before to avoid EDSA, but many motorists did not heed the agency's instructions.

    Haha. Pambihira eh umiwas ka nga, barado naman din mga alternate routes. Parang bata naman na excuse yan, motoristang nagha-hanapbuhay pa ang sinisi. Dapat kasi non-working na kapag ganyan.

    Maybe they didn't declare the holiday on purpose to hassle the rally?

    kahit san ka pa dumaan kahapon talagang traffic. kahit sundin mo pa instruction nilang wala naman kwenta. dapat sa mga ganyan tao ginagawang humps sa edsa.


    di ko talaga maintindihan bakit di pa nila ginawang holiday. alam naman nila kung gaano kalaki magiging epekto pag sinara yung edsa. as a business owner as much as possible ayaw ko din ng holiday, pero sa dami nilang ginagawang holiday na wala naman ka kwenta kwentang rason eh bakit itong edsa anniversary which is a huge significance in our country's history eh di nila ginawang holiday. chinese new year nga ginawang holiday at cinelebrate pa ng husto eh di naman tayo chinese tapos binubully pa ng china ang pilipinas.

    ^kahit nga sana di na ginawang non-working holiday kahapon kung hindi na lang sana sinara yung EDSA eh di maluwag ang daloy ng trapiko kasi nabawasan pa dahil walang pasok mga estudyante..

    I left the house at 8:30 to go to Makati. Passed via C5 from QC. I checked Waze and it was directing me sa P. Tuazon ba un and ang labas ko ay Shaw na. Hindi ko sinunod kasi alam ko maliit ang daan na un. Hindi naman ako masyadong natraffic. Siguro mga 30 mins more lang ang dinagdag to my usual drive.

    But as I saw how terrible C5 going back, I said to myself that there is no way I am going to use this road in going home. So I went via Osmena, Lacson, Q. Ave going back home to QC. It only took me about an hour and 15 mins ata un. Good thing I didn't get stuck.

    yung mga sumali sa EDSA anniversary ay di raw nila na "feel" ang special okasyon. Mas maramin pa nga daw ang mga pulis keysa sa taong bayan. ito nga ba ang tinatawag na people power o baka naman police power. at no show pala si heneral tabaco for the 1st time in history huh!!!

    OT: when I watched the news last nigh, sonny coloma made an apology to those motorists / commuters were stuck in traffic during the anniversary. di ko nga naramdaman yung sincere apology habang binabasa nya ito, na para bang binabasahan lang nya ang kanyang apo na 2 yrs old. sh*t ka sonny ikaw ang nos 1 sinungalin of all time sa taong bayan pag may press conference ka sa palace. your personal opinion is just a rubbish... FYI
