MMDA Cleaners and Metro Aid along EDSA, abala o ok lang?

**jundogg** · September 26th, 2007 06:29 PM

Mejo concerned lang ako sa mga MMDA cleaners at Metro Aid along EDSA na madalas kong makita araw araw.

Una, it's good that there are people who are dedicated to keep EDSA's cleanliness, walls and flowers/plants sa sides. We are assured na hindi magiging gusgusin ang paligid at well-maintained.

The problem is, most of the time, sobrang at risk ang safety nila kasi malapit talaga sila sa disgrasya dahil alongside of the road lang sila nagtatrabaho. Napakaliit o nipis lang ng screen na barrier nila whenever they do their work. madalas din (for metro aids) basta nagwawalis lang sila sa middle sidewalk without any warning device. One hit, im sure may kalalagyan sila.

Many of times din, they are the ones causing traffic dahil araw araw silang nasa gilid ng EDSA. Minsan they also have their truck with them stationed at one lane. Alam naman nating isang lane lang ang magkaabala eh, traffic na.

I just wanna know your view about this. I aint against or pro with them. They are there for a reason naman --- ma-maintain ang kalinisan. The other way around --- cause ng traffic at risked ang safety.

thanks for reading!

mejo at risk nga yang mga street cleaner na yan. at minsan nakakasikip din sa flow ng traffic. pero ok na din kesa naman dumumi ang kalye natin. unless magkakaroon ang MMDA nung truck na may walis like what they use in the US.

what if yung mga traffic enforcers naman ang nakaka pag pasikip sa daan??? ganito sa amin. wala naman sa intersection pero may enforcer sa gitna ng daan. buti sana kung malawak ang kalsada pero sakto lang eh. lagyan mo pa ng taong kelangan mong iwasan eh lalo na sumikip.

if they are at risk, then abala sila.

pero tingin ko mas abala yung mga cleaners and yung mga nagdidilig ng halaman sa SLEX. kung bakit kasi ginagawa nila yung mga activities nila during rush hour in the morning, hindi na lang during the afternoon.

minsan, magsasara sila ng isang lane, dahil nagdidilig sila ng halaman o nagpipinta ng mga steel railings sa middle ng SLEX ng alas syete o alas otso ng umaga.

Okay lang, basta ba wag lang sila magwawalis sa gitna ng kalye dahil abala na yun.. trabaho means income for them rin yan.. tsaka para mahiya rin yung ibang motorist (kung meron pa) na gawing basurahan ang edsa.

They must do the cleaning or other short activities during off-rush hours. Eto ngang ginagawa sa EDSA Main Avenue, they closed 1 lane only but it created monstrous traffic.

Panahon pa ni Imelda Marcos yang mga yan,during her stint as Metro Manila governor,sya nag introduce nyan kaya hanggang ngayon existing sila dahil o.k., ang system ganon pa rin although may kunting improvement[metro aid].

ok lang yan, they're keeping the streets clean.

pero tingin ko mas abala yung mga cleaners and yung mga nagdidilig ng halaman sa SLEX. kung bakit kasi ginagawa nila yung mga activities nila during rush hour in the morning, hindi na lang during the afternoon.

yan din di ko maintindihan sa SLEX eh. sino ba may hawak dyan? PNCC pa din ba?

Maybe, if someone can send MMDA a suggestion to just buy sweeper tractors, baka mas maganda.

If some of us can also send donations so MMDA can purchase, much better. Baka kasi kulang yung pondo nila to get such machines.

If people would just refrain from acting like uncivilized sons of b*tch*s throwing garbage on the streets, di na sana kailangan maglinis pa (or at least not as much).

Suggest din tayo ng solution.

Malaki ang pondo ng govt para sa MMDA, pero saan napupunta? i know you already have the answer.

Sapat nang contribution ang tax na binabawas sa atin tuwing sweldo. at dapat lang ay may mabuting patutunguan yun at hindi lang kukurakutin!

doing our share is a big contribution sa cleanliness, pero sa dami ng populasyon natin, 1 o 2 lang ang magkalat, it would make an impact. at napaka impossibleng madidisiplina lahat ng tao.

im not sure about MMDA's hotline para sa comments, suggestions, at recommendations. sa tingin ko palaging bugbog sa reklamo ang mga yan.
