3 Cost Effective Ways to Solve Metro Manila's Traffic Problem

Image
The Facebook page of ANC 24/7 is asking for its reader's suggestion on how to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem. This got me thinking, "what is the best way to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem?" It's easy to make suggestions, what's hard is the implementation and the cost of implementation. So what is the the best way to solve Metro Manila's traffic problem and the most cost effective solution? Punitive Fines Add caption First of all, any implementation will definitely cost money, a lot of money. The cause of the traffic mess is the people themselves so it's only right that those causing the traffic problem should be fined and the fine should hurt. That way, the fines will pay for the cost of enforcing the law. The fines should start at P500 and goes up every week if you don't pay it within 15 days. To enforce this and prevent people from ignoring the fine. It will be tied to their driver's license or car registr...

Manila Mayor Joseph "Erap" Estrada's Manila Bay Clean-Up Drive is a Joke

Image
Manila Mayor Joseph "Erap" Estrada initiated a clean-up drive of Manila Bay where he and other officials are seen riding on a boat with fishing nets to clean up the garbage in the water. What happened however was that the particular part of the water where they were was sort of clean. So for publicity, he had his people throw garbage from another boat into the water so there's garbage for him and his officials to clean-up during their photo op. There's even people in the water to spread the garbage to make it look "nicer" on the photo. Watch the bopols (stupid in Filipino) move of a Filipino politician. It's amazing what politicians do for publicity. Do you have any photos or videos of bopol moves your politicians?

Manila, bus drivers, operators agree to enforce revised bus ban scheme

Image
AGREEMENT REACHED Manila Mayor Joseph Estrada and Vice Mayor Isko Moreno announce that an agreement has been reached with the bus operators and drivers over the implementation of the bus ban scheme. The meeting took place at City Hall Thursday, Aug. 8, 2013. Estrada and Moreno were ready to face the bus drivers and operators who initially tried to resist the bus ban scheme that seeks to decongest traffic in Manila. Video by INQUIRER.net's Ryan Leagogo While this may be good, unfortunately, once Erap is gone from office, the new Mayor will bring back the buses. Philippine rules and regulation changes with the change in government. Nothing sticks that's why there's always confusion and nobody follows the rules.

Estrada Sues Alfonso Yuchengco and Philippine Daily Inquirer

What else is new? Joseph Estrada files a libel suit against Alfonso Yuchengco and the Philippine Daily Inquirer for their reports about him blackmailing Alfonso Yuchengco to sell his PLDT shares. Joseph Estrada really hates the Philippine Daily Inquirer doesn't he? Remember the ad boycott of the Philippine Daily Inquirer ordered during his Presidency? The guy's a really bully isn't he? It also makes you wonder whether it's worth it to invest in the Philippine stock market if one can be pressured politically to sell your shares. It may not affect you if you're a small investor, but a major investor would think twice before buying shares in the Philippines if things like this can happen. And to think I was thinking of buying a significant block of BPI and Jollibee. Tsk...
