00:00Drivers are getting angry because of the big-time oil price hike next week.
00:06Jaime Santos is witnessing it.
00:08The motorists we talked to about budgeting for gasoline or diesel are getting mad.
00:16Because there's a big-time oil price hike next week,
00:21according to the Department of Energy, diesel is the biggest, almost 2 pesos.
00:27There's nothing I can do but still have to pay for gas.
00:31It's not easy.
00:33At least if there's a car, the traveling time will be less.
00:39We don't want that because the price will increase,
00:42it will affect everything we buy.
00:44So it's not just the gas.
00:46According to GMA Integrated News Research,
00:48there are already 15 OPH in gasoline this year,
00:52equivalent to almost 7 pesos per liter.
00:54In diesel, there are 13 times OPH, equivalent to 6 pesos.
00:59According to the Department of Energy Oil Industry Management Bureau,
01:03the new possible oil price hike is due to the ongoing tensions in some countries
01:09like Ukraine, Russia, and the Middle East.
01:11But aside from the price of oil,
01:14the drivers are also facing another issue, the PUV modernization.
01:17A while ago, the Senate's response to the committee on public services on modernization became heated.
01:24The Manibela group asked for permission to travel even if they did not consolidate.
01:29We will catch them.
01:31Most of us have a fine of P10,000 for the car, P2,000 for his license.
01:37So in total, it's P12,000.
01:39But the Bucina group asked,
01:41How many extensions of consolidation?
01:44The question is, will he consolidate?
01:47We don't follow everything you say.
01:50And there's only one person who doesn't want to?
01:53It's not true that we don't want to.
01:56The truth is, we already have a modernized vehicle that we will bring today.
02:04The only thing we don't want is consolidation.
02:06The government's deadline is over,
02:09but only 12% of the local public transport route planning for the PUV modernization is completed.
02:15The question is also why the local government is planning the route.
02:19The mayor is doing business.
02:22The route will be given to the families.
02:25And that's not fair.
02:27So let's not totally give the route modernization to the LGU.
02:33The government of a local government unit knows better what the best routes are.
02:39For GMA Integrated News, Jaime Santos is your witness.
