MMDA Chairman Tolentino's "brilliant" Ideas to Solve Traffic Problem in MM

[_Cathy_]

Kasi nga na-spoil na, akala nila tamang presyo lang yun di nila alam sobra sobra na yung subsidy.

This is where kailangan talaga ng iron fist - whoever will push for the price increase will inevitably be a dark knight, the man that everyone hates, but the one that we need.

Some people view this as an elitist anti-masses solution kasi. But we cannot keep the fare at that level forever. MRT has been operating at a loss for several years already diba? It's hard to improve the facilities and service given that situation.

I know this will be hugely unpopular, what if we heavily tax gasoline like other European nations, then the gains from that should be used in the improvement of public transportation
I mean p70 for gasoline should lessen traffic whilst increasing the tax revenues of the government
This scheme will just have us buying more cars, really idiotic

I remember when gas prices almost reached P60,or nag 60 ba? It was so easy to find parking around the office. Not much cars on the road too.

I am not for this proposal though because the taxes will most likely not be used for the improvement of public transpo. It will go to corruption na naman

this calls for another Marcos regime, at least disiplinado ang tao, ang loloko loko hulihin agad.

EDIT: Ang problema d2 is tatamaan lahat ng industry. Lahat magmamahal dahil tataas ang production cost. Sa totoo lang, sapat naman ung mga taxes na nakukuha ng government. Ang problema lang is, hindi lahat naka record at kaya di pumapasok sa kaban ng bayan.

As I have stated earlier on other thread,private vehicles are constantly moving from point A to B,just like a river flowing continuously,bumabagal lamangan pag may boulder of rocks(buses,jeep yes picking up passengers)DISCIPLINE is the key,implement all road rules first and surely there will be improvement

tama ka dyan... private vehicles point A TO B lang... than that's it for us the whole day, more or less 45 mins. lang sila sa road sa umaga ganun din sa gabi..

Unlike public utility vehicles na pa ikot ikot sa kalsada kung lumabas yan ng 5am hangang 9pm ata sila sa kalsada... then nakaharang sa flow ng traffic...

kahit mas madami pa ang private vehicles, hindi naman tayo humaharang at nagtatagal sa kalsada, dapat implement lang nila yan sa PUV.. at ang mga PUV naman talaga ang cause ng traffic sa kalsada.

Ok lang yung ganun. If you don't want to wait until 10pm eh di dont bring your car on that day.
Madami nagsasabi na hassle nga ung friday coding pero para sa akin mas maganda dahil sa gabi naman talaga usually nagsisimula ang kasiyahan.
Para sa akin Monday ang pinaka hassle na coding. Nakakatamad na nga pumasok tapos magcocommute ka pa. Pag lunes pa naman mas madami sasakyan kc nagbabalikan na ung mga umuwi ng provinces.

Except kung crony ka ;) So maglalabasan na naman mga wangwang at mga trigger-happy bodyguard (kuno). Nevermind.
