00:00More than a million passengers have arrived at the Paranaque Integrated Terminal Exchange of PITX since last week.
00:08So let's find out the situation there now with JP Soriano's on-the-spot report.
00:13JP?
00:16Connie, Kapuso.
00:18Four days before the New Year's Eve, there were no passengers arriving at PITX, the largest bus terminal in Metro Manila.
00:26And as you can see behind me, the line is really long.
00:29There are no passengers, Connie.
00:30It goes all the way to the other side of Kennedy Road.
00:33It's here at the PITX Terminal in Paranaque City.
00:36And as of 10 a.m., there are almost 50,000 passengers arriving at PITX.
00:41And according to PITX, today, December 27,
00:45they expect that the number of passengers arriving at PITX will reach 190,000 to 200,000 passengers.
00:53Most of the passengers are returning home via Batangas, Bicol, and Mindoro.
00:57And from December 20 to December 26,
01:001.4 million passengers arrived at PITX.
01:05The average number of passengers is 200,000 per day this Christmas and New Year season,
01:11according to PITX management, especially for the long weekend New Year celebration.
01:16It is strictly prohibited to use sharp objects such as knives, scissors,
01:20and any type of flammable materials,
01:22as well as any type of firecrackers and lights.
01:24As you can see here, these are just a few of the security officers here at PITX.
01:31And so far, they have not been able to confiscate any type of lights.
01:35So it is strictly prohibited,
01:37even if the type of lights is legal,
01:40it is strictly prohibited to bring it here during your trip to PITX.
01:44And that is the latest.
01:46Back to you, Connie.
01:47Thank you very much, J.P. Soriano.
