    The jeepney ... an enduring symbol on how pathetic our public transport is.

    Sobra ka naman magsalita. Maybe hindi mo pa naexperience na sumakay sa public transportation like jeep or UV. First of all yan anf pangunahing sakayan ng mga Pilipino, lalo na mg kagaya namin na di maka-afford ng private cars or taxi. Kung maka-"MAHIRAP" ka ha. Ang mga jeepney drivers na yan, may family at mga anak na pinagaaral yan. Kaya di umunlad Pilipinas madaming tao ang mataas ang tingin sa sarili na kagaya mo. Tsk. Shame on you.

    Because jeepney drivers don't know any other way to let their voices be heard. And because if they don't do anything, the tendency is for them to be further marginalized.

    Don't get me wrong. I agree that many of them lack the discipline and proper attitude to be responsible drivers on the road. But that's because noone has ever held them accountable for it. In a system where you get a driver's license just for showing up, there's no incentive to take the effort to learn responsible driving.

    At talaga namang mahirap sila. They toil for the entire day just to get what many of us earn in an hour. Which is why they grab any chance they get to turn the tides in their favor.

    ^yep. Mahirap talaga sila. Yung sa labas ng bahay namin, puro jeepney. After magdrive, red horse na ang hawak. Hahaha

    But seriously, kung na-enforce na ng gobyerno natin na iphase out ang old jeepneys, siguradong private na ang susunod

    I could say the same for people who earn entry-level salaries but have the gall to buy branded clothes and expensive smartphones. The reasoning is always that they choose to spend on what makes them happy. Many people feel that they can't achieve any significant financial milestones anyway, so why bother saving for a rainy day when they can live on day-to-day temporary satisfaction.

    From my experience, financial literacy is somewhat correlated with socio-economic status. The poor and poorly educated do not have the privilege to learn how to budget and save for the long term, effectively reinforcing their subpar financial standing.

    "Dyutay" means small in Ilonggo. The Cebuano uses a different word, "gamay" or "gagmay".

    Not sure if it means something else in another local dialect. hehehehe

    Nung panahon ni marcos panay din ang strike ng mga jeepney dahil sa pagconstruct ng LRT. Kung nakinig lang ang admin sa mga yan edi hanggang ngayon wala pa tayong LRT. Hindi pwedeng laging hinohold ng mga yan ang development ng karamihan

    Sa Rizal Avenue sa kalookan dami rin nakapila....

    Why do commuters always like to block half the road when they can't get a ride...
