    For a livable Metro Manila:

    We can transform Metro Manila if we do it by parts. Start by redesigning and rebuilding the main bus stops in Cubao, Crossing, Guadalupe, etc.

    Design goals:

    1) Seamless transfer from one mode of transportation to another.

    2) The layout of the bus stops should be in such a way that the buses do not block the movement of other vehicles.

    3) The passenger waiting area should
    - be wide enough (to avoid overcrowding)
    - have a roof
    - be accessible by covered walkway.

    4) Aesthetically pleasing. Hindi pwede iyong chicken wire bus stops.
    it will all start with discipline, maskina ano pa ilagay mo diyan pero kung walang disciplina both driver and passenger di gagana yan, and besides we have too many buses and too narrow roads

    The final paragraph of Animal Farm:

    Twelve voices were shouting in anger, and they were all alike. No question, now, what had happened to the faces of the pigs. The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.

    2:06 - 3:45 - Tom Selleck driving in an MG sports car in early 70s Manila.



    Warning: NSFW opening (bewbs and torture).

    BTW: MG is coming back to the Philippines. But their cars are not as cool as the classic MG sports cars.
