00:48Fuck a wonder that I met my devote mula pasig hanggang, Manila
00:52I
00:59Bear with the twist, I'll make you put a yosaka in a very
01:07Graduation graduation guy, sir. I'm a push-up. Oh, yeah
01:14I'm fine. I'm the part you're I want anything. I'm a salad. I'm on satire
01:19I'm gonna tie it on sat on a station. Let's go
01:26But if I give it in and even if I'm passionate
01:34No, I'm not gonna get my top and I'm not gonna inhale go to the exit
01:42Oh, yeah, I'm a food trip
01:49Oh
01:53I'm gonna die in it. Oh, wait. I'm a tanja man
01:56I'm gonna kind of it. Oh, it's a song. Oh my god. We'll walk out. It's a monga
02:01It's a little barbecue. I'm gonna make a barbecue
02:10Mommy, so I don't have to have a little more
02:12Oh
02:42That's why tonight, we will know and visit some destinations in some stations that are really close to Juan.
02:52I wonder, to avoid traffic, to take a ferry in the city.
02:59Who would have thought that in the middle of Manila, there is a ferry in the city.
03:04This is the Pasig River Ferry.
03:06There are no foreign passengers in the country.
03:09The Pasig River is used as a transportation to deliver goods.
03:14It is easy for the passengers to go to Manila, the center of Calacalan.
03:19And now, they don't just use ordinary boats to cross the Pasig River.
03:26In 2007, the operation of the ferry in the Pasig River started.
03:30There were only 5 boats or ferries before.
03:33But now, there are 7 more.
03:34Some are big and some are small.
03:3950 passengers can fit in a big ferry.
03:42While the small one can fit 30 people.
03:45Back then, the ferries were air-conditioned.
03:48But the new ferries that are added now,
03:51it's not anymore so that the passengers can enjoy the ride and sightseeing.
03:56The passengers can also sit comfortably inside.
04:05Aside from the new ferries, their stations are also added.
04:11You can travel from Pinagbuhatan, Pasig,
04:14through Guadalupe, Makati, Mandaluyong,
04:17to Escolta, Manila.
04:20In total, the Pasig River is at an hour and a half.
04:25And now, this is our adventure.
04:29Wait a minute, where is Empoy?
04:31Dear Mommy Sue, this pancit is for you.
04:35Love, love, love.
04:37Empoy.
04:43Yes, Mommy Sue, I have something for you.
04:46I have a pancit that I left.
04:48I hope you like it because it's so delicious.
04:53The schedule of the ferry is from 7 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon.
04:56It passes through 12 stations.
04:59Even though other stations changed and added more ferries,
05:03it doesn't change that it's still free for the passengers to ride.
05:08The departure time is 1.30.
05:11I feel like we're in another country.
05:14And we're going to Taana Station.
05:17Let's go!
05:21There's an aircon.
05:23There's an aircon.
05:25There are 50 passengers in the ferry that we're riding to Santa Ana.
05:35On the trip, I met the passengers Joy and Ina.
05:40Ina has been riding the ferry for 2 years.
05:43Why do you ride everyday?
05:45Aside from the free ride, it's very comfortable because
05:48when I go out, when I go to the market, I go straight.
05:54Joy also rides the ferry when she goes to the worship service.
05:58Do you always ride here?
06:00Every Friday, I go to Quiapo.
06:03What about today, Tuesday?
06:05Today, Tuesday, because I have an appointment.
06:07Why do you ride here?
06:09Because it's free.
06:11I was able to save about 45 minutes.
06:14Really?
06:16Because I'm only here in Makati.
06:19Father Christopher is also a witness to the history of Pasig Ferry.
06:23He's been working at the ferry station for 11 years.
06:26In the past, there weren't many houses around.
06:31MMDA is in charge of Pasig River Ferry.
06:34Because of his work at the ferry,
06:36Father Christopher was able to protect the education of his children.
06:40I was able to help my family because I have 5 children.
06:43I was able to graduate.
06:45I also had a good achievement here at Pasig River Ferry.
06:49Here, I was able to say goodbye to my schooling mom.
06:53Finally, I was able to graduate with a B.S. in Criminology
06:59in the past month.
07:06Before we change topics,
07:08we will have our wonders challenged first.
07:11One minute, one question.
07:14Alright.
07:16Here we go.
07:18Let's see how we will answer our challenges.
07:20Mommy Sua, you still have a challenge?
07:22What are your questions?
07:24I will answer them here.
07:27Can I call a friend?
07:33Where can you find Binondo and Chinatown?
07:37Where can you find them?
07:39Escolta.
07:41Mommy Sua,
07:43where can you find Pasig Ferry Station?
07:46It's at Laguna de Bay.
07:48Wait, let's ask the staff at the back.
07:53Pasig Ferry, Laguna Bay, where is it?
07:57Pinagbuhatan.
07:58Pinagbuhatan?
07:59Kamay?
08:00Sorry, no.
08:01Mpoy, it seems like they are the ones answering for you.
08:05Did you notice, Mommy Sua?
08:07Mommy Sua, this is not allowed.
08:09I'm the only one like this.
08:10You need to do it too.
08:12Mpoy, you even asked me.
08:15We got caught there.
08:17I asked for help, but I got caught.
08:19Where is the station where passengers go down to Jonesbridge and Binondo?
08:26Escolta.
08:28This station is named after a famous university in the Philippines.
08:34P.O.P.
08:36What station is considered to be the center of Pasig River Ferry?
08:43Guadalupe.
08:45This is the first station in Pasig and near Laguna de Bay.
08:50Pinagbuhatan?
08:52Mommy Sua, you're so smart.
08:55And because of that, you will get a fishbowl from the people there.
08:58I mean, from those who ride the Ferry.
09:05I wonder, before I go around and enjoy the Pasig Ferry.
09:15Where is Mpoy?
09:17Sir, I'm here.
09:21Wow, you know me so well.
09:26This is my second episode of the shooting of I Wonder.
09:29So now, we're getting ready and we're inside the van.
09:34We're going to have a feast.
09:36Alright, Ka-Wonder.
09:38Alright.
09:45They're so laughter, man.
09:49Mpoy, camera rolling, action.
09:51Mpoy, camera rolling, action.
09:57The first station of Pasig Ferry is Pinagbuhatan if you're from the South.
10:05Mpoy's assignment.
10:12Please come in, sir.
10:17Congratulations.
10:18Congratulations, guys.
10:19Sir, why do you ride the Ferry?
10:21It's more comfortable because we're going to Manila.
10:25Yes.
10:26And it's free.
10:27Oh, it's just free?
10:28Yes, it's free.
10:29Okay, thank you.
10:30Sir, what's your shampoo?
10:39Alright, Ka-Wonder.
10:41We're here at Pinagbuhatan.
10:43Did you know what?
10:44Here at Pinagbuhatan, there's a 72-year-old delicious pancit.
10:50That's where we're going now.
10:52Wait, I think I smell it.
10:54I think it's here.
10:56No, it's there.
10:58I think it's here.
11:00Come on, follow me.
11:03Sir, do you know where's the best place to eat pancit?
11:08Of course, I understand.
11:10The best pancit.
11:11Right here?
11:12Yes, there.
11:13I'm so thirsty.
11:14Can I buy a coconut?
11:16Do you want plastic?
11:17No, that's okay.
11:20Who's paying?
11:21Give the change.
11:24Love you, brother.
11:31If you go down to Pinagbuhatan Station,
11:34you won't be able to resist going to Ado's Panciteria.
11:38It's only been 72 years since pancit has been eaten.
11:44This tradition continues with Chef Alfredo Leshio.
11:50Now, I'm going to teach you how to cook pancit.
11:54Are you ready?
11:57Dad added margarine and garlic oil.
12:08There.
12:09Dad broke an egg.
12:11He broke two eggs.
12:13How many eggs should be broken?
12:16It depends on the order.
12:18Two orders or three orders.
12:20This is the chicharron.
12:22There.
12:24It adds a lot of atmosphere.
12:26That's what makes it delicious.
12:28There, we can see dad mixing the pancit.
12:32But this is really different.
12:34The pancit has chicharron, right?
12:36He's adding pancit.
12:44There.
12:45Should the heat be just right or just right?
12:49Yes, but it's not toasted yet.
12:52About three weeks?
12:55No, about two weeks.
12:56Just two weeks?
12:57Dad is so good.
12:58He's better than us.
13:01There.
13:03I know you're not going to pass that.
13:09After dad taught us how to cook different kinds of pancit,
13:15of course, we're going to taste it.
13:17Before we taste it, I'm going to give you a trivia.
13:21My favorite pancit is...
13:24Sorry, I thought it was camera 3.
13:27Lomi, of course.
13:28There.
13:29I like this.
13:30Let's taste it.
13:31Let's put it under.
13:40And the good thing about this,
13:41as you can see,
13:43while you're eating,
13:44the ingredients are walking out one by one.
13:47Just like the barbecue.
13:48Did you see the barbecue walk earlier?
13:54Chili, thank you.
13:55There's a walking hand.
13:57There's a walking hand here.
13:58Chili, guys.
14:02It's like you want to touch it.
14:06So, where are you going next?
14:08We're here at Pinagbuhatan,
14:10and we're going to Escolta now.
14:13So, guys, let's go?
14:15Let's go!
14:24From Pinagbuhatan to Escolta,
14:26if you take a ferry,
14:27it will take more than an hour and a half
14:29to travel 20 kilometers.
14:34If you take a public road,
14:36it will take more than two hours
14:38to travel 30 kilometers.
14:42That's why Pinagbuhatan is faster
14:44to Escolta
14:45if you take a ferry.
14:47The good thing about my experience here on the ferry
14:51is that it's adventurous
14:54and you can get here easily.
14:57And here's another wonder.
14:59You might think it's free.
15:01It's cheap.
15:02But it's true.
15:03It's free.
15:07Congratulations, Carlos Hulo.
15:09This is a different station.
15:12Wait, employee.
15:13That's Carlos Yulo, not Hulo.
15:18Did you see what I saw?
15:19There, right?
15:20The one behind you earlier,
15:21we passed it.
15:22But the thing is,
15:25it's not allowed to take pictures.
15:27There, it's out of focus again.
15:29But I have a picture.
15:32That's what I saw.
15:34There's an island and a building.
15:36That's what's big, right?
15:41The management of PASIG
15:43is encouraging you to ride the ferry more carefully.
15:46We will add more stations
15:48that will connect to the routes
15:52of the jeepneys and bus stations.
15:54Aside from saving on transportation,
15:56it also saves on time.
15:57So for those who want to ride
15:59and go to Quiapo,
16:01which is from PASIG,
16:02Makati, and Mandaluyong,
16:04you can ride our ferry here.
16:06It's free.
16:16Wanderers,
16:17we're going to Escolta
16:19to ride the ferry PASIG.
16:22We came from Pinagbuhatan.
16:25Imagine, end to end.
16:27In English, somewhere to somewhere.
16:31Aside from the ferry captain,
16:33there are also Philippine Coast Guard on standby.
16:36They are also wearing safety jackets
16:38while the number of passengers is light.
16:46It's a nice experience for me
16:48because sometimes,
16:50when you're scared,
16:51you'll be able to fight it.
16:53Just like this,
16:54if I'm scared of water,
16:56if I'm scared of experiences like this,
16:58or places that I haven't been to.
17:06Thank you for enjoying the ride,
17:08Empoy.
17:11It looks like you're already in Escolta.
17:14But wait,
17:16Empoy, wake up!
17:20Why did you fall asleep there?
17:27Escolta trivia first.
17:30Hango,
17:31in Spanish,
17:32Escolta means escort or escort.
17:37Just like Jones Bridge,
17:38the first bridge built in the Pasig River
17:41during the Spanish colonial period.
17:45Are you familiar with the burnt post office?
17:47It's a symbol of communication in the country
17:49for more than a century.
17:56And of course,
17:57in Escolta,
17:58you can also find
18:00one of the favorite pastry shops
18:02that Dr. Jose Rizal,
18:03a well-known Filipino,
18:04runs,
18:05Toho Pansiteria Antigua.
18:12Have you ever wondered
18:15what you can find
18:16in this gigantic time zone in Manila?
18:20So, Ka-wanderers,
18:21we're going to talk about
18:22the office in charge.
18:24Sir,
18:25what's your name again?
18:26My name is Jose Maria Belmonte.
18:29Actually,
18:30at first,
18:31this clock tower
18:33with a window on top
18:35was used by the Filipinos
18:38to see where the Japanese were.
18:41It has a hidden sightseeing.
18:45Yes.
18:46Am I right?
18:47Yes.
18:48You're right.
18:49The clock tower
18:50can reach up to 100 meters.
18:52When you climbed this,
18:54did you inhale or exhale?
18:56In the near future,
18:58we'll have an elevator.
19:01Elevator?
19:02Yes.
19:03Did you spell your elevator?
19:05So, Sir Empoy,
19:06let's go up.
19:07Let's go up?
19:09That's all?
19:10Next time.
19:13Hey, hey, hey, Ka-wanderers!
19:15If you haven't asked yet,
19:17you can ask now.
19:19I really have
19:20a fear of heights.
19:23Oh, heights.
19:27Wait, Mommy Sue.
19:28You know this, right?
19:31Hi, Ka-wanderers.
19:32When we were in Korea,
19:33we were really...
19:34Oh, that's why
19:35this is a new challenge for you.
19:36You need to go up
19:37to the top of Manila Clock Tower Museum
19:39to see its 360-degree view.
19:47What's that?
19:48Is that a knock?
19:54Let's go up.
20:00Ka-wanderers,
20:01do you think I can do this?
20:02The Manila Clock Tower Museum
20:03is a go-to place
20:04in Kainan, Escalante Station.
20:07It's a 20-minute walk away
20:08from Ferry Station.
20:11This museum
20:12was built 96 years ago
20:15and is known as
20:16the largest clock tower in the Philippines.
20:19In Antonio Toledo's design,
20:21this is now the only place
20:22where you can see
20:23the 360-degree view of Manila.
20:28Their museum is open
20:29every Tuesday to Sunday
20:31from 7am to 4.30pm.
20:36So if you want to go hiking...
20:39Ka-wanderers,
20:40we're here.
20:41We're close to the clock tower.
20:43If you want to explore
20:45the rich history of Manila,
20:48you need to go there.
20:51Let's go up.
20:53Let's go up.
20:55You can do it.
20:56Huh?
20:57You can do it.
20:58Me?
20:59Where is that?
21:00Is that the clock tower?
21:01That's the last one.
21:02That's the last one?
21:03Yes.
21:04Ka-wanderers,
21:05do you think I can do this?
21:07But I think we can do it.
21:09Come with me.
21:132044,
21:142045,
21:152046.
21:19It's a bit dizzying.
21:23Here it is, Ka-wanderers.
21:29So, Ka-wanderers,
21:30are you going to join me
21:32in climbing the Manila Clock Tower?
21:35It's easy.
21:36Very, very easy.
21:37And you can do it too.
21:38I can do it.
21:42As you can see, Ka-wanderers,
21:44we drove to several stations of Pasig Ferry.
21:47But we've already reached a lot of stations.
21:49The good thing about my experience here at Ferry
21:53is that it's an adventurous experience.
21:56Then,
21:57aside from that,
21:59you're less late in your destination
22:01and it's easy to get there.
22:06Who are the passengers?
22:07You can ride.
22:10This is not just an answer to a traffic problem.
22:14More than that,
22:15this is a way to bring Juan closer
22:18to the various riches of his country.
22:23In today's traffic,
22:24it's very important that we have alternative vehicles.
22:28So, our fellow countrymen,
22:29this Pasig Ferry can be an alternative vehicle.
22:33I hope we can support it
22:36so that it will become more beautiful
22:39and continue to provide services to our fellow countrymen.
22:44So, Ka-wanderers,
