    di ba dapat magpasalamat kami dahil meron ng choices para sa amin.
    I mean spending to build new trains for Metro Manila is unfair sa provinces.

    even in countries na maganda public transport, walang car yung walang pambili

    so a new roads are always nice

    Asking the Gov't for a new train is unfair to the provinces

    Pero the private sector will always open their wallets for new toll roads

    Just like SS3, I have friends living in the South who will benefit from this project.
    a lot of disconnect in this argument...

    I'm not against people buying cars...a person can buy all the cars he can...it is his right

    People buying cars and govt improving the railway system is not mutually exclusive . . .

    "Building railway is unfair to the provinces" shows how limited your views on railways are....FYI, railways can be built from from NCR to provinces also . .

    But that's also what I was saying: The mere presence of a road wouldn't mean that people will suddenly go somewhere.
    I wouldn't go to Laguna just because a new road going there is built, since I have no reason to go to Laguna.

    The reason to go to Laguna isn't dictated by the road, but by other factors --economic activity, relatives, etc. Does someone have family, property or business there? Merely building a road does nothing to increase these.

    So we have the same number of people who want to go to, and have reason to go to Laguna.
    Adding another road going there means the existing road will be decongested.

    as much as I would love to see a train going to Tagaytay and Baguio

    you also need a car bec it will be difficult to commute when you reach your destination.

    same experience I had the first time I went to Hakone (Mt. Fuji). Riding the train is great, but you need a car to go around the city.

    then there's the cost of that train, if you have limited funds (like our Gov't) will you connect Subic and Clark? or BGC and Ayala?
    if you were a private company, will you spend on a train? or will you spend on new toll roads?

    37.6-km Laguna Lakeshore Road Network will look like this | Autoindustriya

    Based on the illustrations, the new Laguna Lakeshore Road Network (LRRN) will have 3 lanes per direction. It will also have a total of 8 interchanges, namely: Sucat, Alabang, San Pedro/Binan, Santa Rosa, Cabuyao, and Calamba. Moreover, the proposed Sucat Interchange will have a trumpet-style design as seen from one of the images.

    There will even be a cycling track and promenade from Tunasan, Muntinlupa to San Pedro, Laguna. The LLRN Project – Phase 1 will cover Laguna Lake's western side and will see the construction of a 37.6-km mainline road, 6.1-km local connecting roads, and 7.3-km interchanges and slip roads.
