00:00 Transport strikes in Baguio City were not felt.

00:03 More than 90% of the jeepneys in Cordillera have been consolidated

00:08 or have joined a corporation or cooperative.

00:11 Details in the report of Glory Balega of PTV Cordillera.

00:15 The jeepney of Angel goes to her work twice.

00:22 The traffic is loose.

00:24 Aside from the lack of access to public education,

00:27 Baguio City was not affected by the nationwide transport strike of some groups.

00:32 It's a good thing that POJ drivers are not joining us here in Baguio City.

00:37 I am very thankful that I can ride a jeepney right away

00:41 because transportation to my work is not difficult, especially since I ride twice.

00:47 Every rush hour in the morning and afternoon,

00:49 the traffic in the central business district is tight.

00:52 The traffic on the roads is fine.

00:55 Baguio-Banguet Jeepney Federation did not complain

00:59 that almost 95% of Baguio's jeepney associations are involved in the transport strike.

01:05 They said that the situation in Manila is different.

01:09 The consolidation rate of their members as supporters of the POVMP is higher.

01:15 The League of Transportation and Operators of the Philippines Cordillera and Region 1 said

01:21 that they will not sacrifice their services to the public.

01:25 Because the League did not believe that the problem can be solved on the road,

01:33 if not through dialogue, our members will be pitiful.

01:37 And not only the members of the PPP,

01:41 but all government officials, students, and businessmen.

01:47 They insisted on the cooperation of the government's group for the modernization of transportation in the country.

01:54 They will also meet with the government tomorrow to fix the problems in the POVMP.

02:00 I hope our government will listen to our pleas.

02:05 We will not go to the streets, but I hope they will have a dialogue

02:10 and they will include us as the province.

02:13 We will be a local government in Baguio and the province.

02:17 We will help them with the transport.

02:20 We will help them to improve the quality,

02:23 to make it affordable and suitable for the people.

02:28 According to the LTFRB, 5,000 jeepney units are authorized in the entire Cordillera.

02:35 But after 4,000, 93.4% have been consolidated.

02:41 On May 1, the unconsolidated units will not be allowed to travel.
