00:00The D.O.T.R.'s proposed budget for the study of the Philippines' lack of sleep is highlighted in the camera footage.
00:14One of the reasons for this is the everyday traffic jams and the difficult commute that the Filipinos are facing.
00:22The Tugon and the Transportation Department's program in supporting J.P. Soriano.
00:31Just to make sure that it's not too late at 7 a.m., Rico wakes up at 4 a.m.
00:39Aside from his usual routine before going to work, he also travels for more than 2 hours.
00:45From Mandaluyong to Commonwealth, Quezon City because of the heavy traffic.
00:50When he gets home around 7 p.m., he travels for 3 hours and gets home around 10 p.m.
00:58That's why Rico only gets 4 hours of sleep per day.
01:02It's because of the lack of sleep. There's a lot of traffic, sir.
01:06Traffic. If there's no traffic, the time we get to work is really fast.
01:14The daily commuter chaos is discussed in the hearing of the Committee on Appropriations of the House of Representatives
01:22for the proposed 2025 National Budget of the Department of Transportation.
01:27In a study by the World Economic Forum in 2019, we are one of the most sleep-deprived.
01:33Why? Because you have to wake up at 4.30 in the morning.
01:36You have to go up to a mountain of stairs just to cross EDSA, to ride the bus.
01:41You have to eat on the bike lane, you have to eat on the bus lane, you have to eat on...
01:46whoever is in need there.
01:48Tugon and the Transportation Department are continuously doing their best
01:52to address the serious problem of the country in terms of traffic.
01:55They say it's a long-term solution, like improving the EDSA bus carousel.
02:01The reason why they are going to the busway carousel, because the travel time,
02:08it's either not increasing, it's still fast as compared to other modes of transportation.
02:16The Philippine problem, which has the smallest and smallest relays in Southeast Asia,
02:23is one of the expected solutions to reduce traffic and transportation in the Philippines.
02:29According to the DOTR, the government's railway projects are increasing
02:34and are expected to be used in the coming years,
02:37such as the North-South Commuter Railway Project, LRT-1 Cavite Extension Project,
02:43MRT-3 Rehabilitation Project, and other projects.
02:47We have five ongoing construction railway projects,
02:50three pre-construction projects, and 13 project development state projects.
02:56The Metro Manila Subway, touted as the country's most ambitious infrastructure project to date,
03:02has already attained significant progress in its construction.
03:06As for the bike lanes in the country, according to the DOTR,
03:10they helped to build an additional 260 kilometers of roads
03:16that will require an additional budget.
03:19But the question is, are the bike lanes in the streets safe and in the right places?
03:50And we have to maintain and make it safe for our bikers.
03:56For GMA Integrated News, J.P. Soriano.
04:00Tune in for 24 hours.
