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.

We Didn't Have This Green Thing Back In Our Day

Saw this on Facebook. I felt like sharing it. Checking out at the supermarket recently, the young cashier suggested I should bring my own bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. I apologised and explained, "We didn't have this green thing back in my earlier days." The cashier responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations." She was right about one thing--our generation didn't have the green thing in "Our" day. So what did we have back then? After some reflection and soul-searching on "Our" day here's what I remembered we did have...

The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles repeatedly. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the green thing back in our day. We wal...

NAIA to cut terminal fee for intl flights Feb. 1

From GMA News .. Starting February 1, the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA) will bring down the terminal fee for international flights at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) to P550 from the present P750. A report on BusinessWorld quoted MIAA General Manager Jose Angel Honrado as saying the five-year security development program will end by February. The MIAA had imposed an added P200 charge in 2007 to improve security measures at the NAIA, which it supervises. Meanwhile, state-run Philippines News Agency reported the MIAA added the P200 security development charge to the terminal fee - also known as the airport users charge (AUC) - on Feb. 1, 2007. It said those exempted paying the AUC are OFWs, foreign diplomats, athletes and sports officials, transit passengers, refugees, pilgrims, airline cabin crews and deportees. - VVP, GMA News It's about freaking time. You have to wonder where those P200 extra per passenger for security development went...

Psychic's predictions for 2012 -- From 30 years ago

Image
This psychic predicted 9/11 years in advance. What he has for 2012 is unbelievable, and obviously he's been right several before. The guy speaks french, but the video is subtitled in English. Real or a really good fake? What would you do if we were really invaded by alien? I would say to them, "Bah weep gragnah weep nini bong".
