00:00Two pesos provisional increase in jeep fare is the target of a transport group that has a high price of oil.
00:07Witness, Jamie Santos.
00:13Until last night, Alvin used to travel by jeep to get his old income.
00:18Now, he says it's hard to get a big income because of the high price of oil.
00:23That's why he hopes that there will be a high fare.
00:26It used to be 1,000 pesos. Now, it's hard to get 1,000 pesos because of the high price of diesel.
00:32But Ray, even if he's affected by the jeep fare, he's not in favor of the high fare.
00:38It's hard for the passengers. They should lower the diesel price.
00:42So that the commuters will have a higher fare.
00:44Yes, so that the commuters will have a lower fare.
00:46The transport group of Pasangbasla is complaining about the low oil price rollback and the high price hike.
00:53That's why they are asking for a provisional 2 pesos increase in jeep fare while the price of oil is high.
01:00We revived that and we will request to Chairman Del Guadis that 2 pesos provisional increase
01:08while the price of diesel and oil is high.
01:12Now, if the price goes down, we will call that 2 pesos.
01:16This 2.70 last week, our chopper lost around 130 pesos. That's a big thing.
01:24Some commuters that we talked to are in favor of the sentiment of the drivers
01:29who are also looking for a life for their families.
01:32I hope it won't be too high.
01:34I think 1 peso will be good.
01:36For me, it's okay because my husband and my father were in the transportation sector before.
01:42So, I know how hard it is and how little they earn if the price of oil is low.
01:48They are also looking for a life.
01:50They are both affected by the high price of oil.
01:55But there are also those who are burdened by the high fare.
01:58Especially now, the fare is low and the price is high.
02:02It's heavy in the pocket.
02:04Should we not do it, sir?
02:06Let's not do it for now.
02:07Let's not do it for now.
02:08Maybe they will lower the prices of what they buy.
02:10For GMA Integrated News, I'm Jamie Santos, your witness.
