00:00So, MRT 4 is heads to Ortigas Avenue, Ortigas Extension, down Manila East Road, all the way to Tanay.
00:08So, since MRT 4 alignment, especially in Manila East Road, which is next to Antipolo,
00:19we thought about exploring the possibility of coming up with a feeder, what we call a feeder line.
00:26So, we know that Antipolo is very dense, lots of residents, lots of economic activity.
00:32So, it will be complementary to MRT 4, to connect MRT 4 with Antipolo City.
00:39And that's where the idea of a cable car project came up.
00:43And thankfully, ADB was generous enough to fund the pre-feasibility study, and that pre-feasibility study has been completed.
00:54And the project appears viable.
00:57We just need to do further studies, and that's what we will be working on towards the end of this year.
