pati MMDA mismo. Wala nga silang mahuli dyan sa mga pickup/drop off points. Napakaingay dyan sa Guadalupe atbp....

Bakit may tricycle at minsan pedicabs pa akong nakikita along MIA and Airport road? Dinadaan daanan lang nila yung mga MMDA na nakatayo sa may stoplight ng Park & Go. What a shame.

Baka siguro konti lang ang lagay kapag tricycle or pedicab. MIA yun eh, edi mas marami ang turista at taxi ng makokotongan

Tanga kasi yang gumagawa ng mga batas na yan! Hintayin niyo akong maging presidente ng pilipinas at lahat ng mga bulok na sistema at mga patabaing baboy na sinuswelduhan pa natin, pagsisisibakin ko lahat yan. Kamay na bakal para sa mga gumagawa at nagpapatupad ng batas, hindi para sa mamamayan. Imagine, ipatupad mo lang ang batas, magkakaroon ng revenue ang pamahalaan galing sa violators. O kung wala nang mag-violate, smooth sailing naman ang lahat. Masarap mabuhay sa bansang pilipinas!
