00:10 Good morning, Igan and to all the viewers watching us now.
00:15 Is this provisional fare hike worth it?
00:17 It's worth a dollar to our jeeps.
00:19 You know that Igan's talk is still lacking.
00:24 But I would like to thank LTFRD, Permanent Chairman Jojo Guadid
00:29 for approving our provisional increase of five pesos.
00:33 With the provisional increase of five, I mean,
00:36 our main petition is five pesos.
00:38 But we have a prayer that the provisional increase is one peso.
00:43 This was heard yesterday and we are thankful.
00:47 Our first petition is only for National Capital Region,
00:52 where our workers received a raise in salary.
00:55 Yesterday, we filed our supplemental petition based on the wishes of our commuters,
01:02 to the Commune of El Vero, Divina, of the commuters group,
01:08 so we approved it.
01:10 It's for half of the total, not just for National Capital Region.
01:13 The passengers said they are aware that the additional peso is heavy.
01:18 That's right. I'm asking them to understand our request.
01:26 If they can remember, in 2018, when the price of our petroleum products suddenly dropped to 10 pesos,
01:34 even though they destroyed the Semi Marana, the airframe, the Lando Marquez, the Ibargas,
01:39 LTFRD went there and we told the former chairman Del Tranas,
01:45 "Chairman, we will lower the price. We will reduce the price by one peso because our diesel is low."
01:52 I hope our workers understand that the cost of cleaning is only temporary.
01:58 If it will normalize in 2027, 2026, we will return the payment in 2022, 2013 and 2014.
02:10 It's provisional, not permanent. But what is your news on the five pesos petition, Bet?
02:17 According to our main petition, the board will hear it on October and November 24.
02:25 We will hear it here. In the first round, we are doing our best to prove to the LTFRD, the board and the NEDA that we need to increase the price.
02:40 That five pesos is not enough. You know that it will have a price. It will be three pesos or two pesos.
02:48 We will thank them.
02:50 Thank you very much, Bet Martin, national president of Pasang Mazda. Be careful.
02:54 Thank you very much and I will be careful. Good morning. God bless you.
