00:00Good evening, Kapuso! I am Kuya Kim and I will give you a trivia behind the trending news.

00:10There is a jeepney in Leyte that is not only traffic, but also the waves.

00:15This jeepney is sailing in the sea.

00:21The jeepneys are the king of the road.

00:23But there is a jeepney that is sailing in the sea.

00:31This is the water jeepney made by RG.

00:33They made a lot of money.

00:36RG made the water jeepney for 5 months.

00:38Even if I bought a junk jeepney, that is the only design I made.

00:43It still has a battery.

00:44It's just like a jeepney.

00:45We just put an elixir.

00:47It's like cotton.

00:48It can be used by 6 passengers.

00:50But RG said that it won't pass.

00:53We just used it for sightseeing.

00:55I didn't rent it.

00:56And to make it more famous, they plan to upgrade it.

01:00I will change the engine.

01:01And I will make it work in the sea.

01:07Kuya Kim, why do jeepneys become the king of the road?

01:10Kuya Kim, what now?

01:12The jeepneys are not only a symbol of our culture.

01:15It is also a part of the daily lives of many of our countrymen.

01:18Because it is one of the most popular means of public transportation in the country.

01:23That's why it deserves to be the king of the road.

01:26But before there were jeepneys,

01:28during the time of the Americans,

01:29until after the Second World War,

01:32here in the Philippines,

01:33there were so-called auto-kalesas or jeepneys.

01:36These are cheap imported vehicles that served as share taxis at that time.

01:40But after World War II,

01:42most of the American military vehicles were sold to the Filipinos.

01:47They customized them.

01:49They were equipped with a metal roof,

01:50a long rear part,

01:52and a wooden and steel design.

01:54These are the jeepneys that we know today.

01:57Do you know the famous design of jeepneys?

02:07Even before the jeepney modernization program was launched in 2017,

02:10this is how most of the jeepneys we drive look like.

02:14Iconic!

02:15One of the pioneers who remodeled and redesigned the look of jeepneys at that time

02:20was Saraw Motors,

02:21which was owned by Leonardo Saraw.

02:24Leonardo was not the first to alter the jeepneys left by the Americans at that time.

02:28But he was one of those who saw the potential for mass transportation.

02:33He lengthened the rear part so that more people can ride.

02:36And he put a railing on the back and on the top

02:39so that people can sit here and put their belongings.

02:42Meanwhile, to find out the trivia behind the viral news,

02:45just post or comment,

02:47Hashtag Kuya Kim, what's next?
