Former
Senator Antonio Trillanes IV is urging the concerned government agencies to
heed the call of the transport sector in their plea of allowing jeepney drivers
and operators to ply the streets in general community quarantine areas to augment
the much needed public transport for the numerous riding public.
The
former lawmaker said the government should take note of the plight of the
jeepney drivers and operators vis a vis the lack of mass public
transportation in the whole scheme of
things taking into note the current COVID-19 pandemic.
“DOTr,
parang awa nyo na sa mga commuters at drivers, ibalik nyo na ang mga jeepney!”
Trillanes tweeted.

is of the opinion that there is government push to ban the old jeepneys in lieu
of the modern ones. He questions the identity of the company or corporation who
will manufacture or distribute these modern jeepneys and supposedly will profit
for such endeavor.
“I have been hearing
that there is a deeper agenda in the banning of jeepneys,” he said.
“Sino kaya ang
distributor/manufacturer nung mga modern jeeps duterte is pushing? Assuming mga
200k new jeeps multiplied by 100k patong per unit = 20 billion ang kita! Kaya
pala!” he added.
