The catapultic forward movement of prices almost led me to callousness; refusing to be in-touched with the everyday economic development. Almost everyday, when Filipinos wake up a leap in price completes their breakfast and that may make them not have breakfast at all.
In this home of PUV-dependent people, the system does not seem to cater the needs of the transportation providers that serve as transfer lines of commuters. Upsurging prices brought the clamor for fare increase. Thank God the "favor" fell upon the drivers. However, regulatory measures prevent them to taste the victory that they waited for. The inability to procure the fare matrix hinder the drivers to collect the necessary fee. Apparently, acquiring fare matrix takes a very long process and really costly, giving additional burden to operators and drivers. Everyday, whenever I ride jeepneys, I can see that many still do not have the fare matrix.
Life, indeed, is ironic...
