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.

American Taxi Drivers

Found this video on Youtube about two Americans who decided to go to the Philippines and become taxi drivers. Here's the description from Youtube. "Turock (aka Tory) and Jason have been running their taxi in the philippines for the past year. They both lost Jobs in the USA and picked up and moved to the Philippines to look for jobs. Jobs in the Philippines are scarce but starting a taxi service made sense. This is a video of their very first run almost one year ago. They are running a taxi in the province of Isabela thru to Cagayan. Their route starts in Santiago and makes stops in Alicia, Cauayan, Ilagan, Tuguegarao. They only charge 30PHP per trip, MAY AIR CON PA!

Joey Velasco - Sa Kambas ng Lipunan - On the Canvas of Society

I would like to share this video I saw. It's a sad story about the state of the street children in our society. Here's the description of the video from Youtube.
