Kaban ni D_BystandeR: TUKMA ANG PANAHOM NI NEAL CRUZ

I appreciate this article written by Neal Cruz as being painstakingly researched by the author to show all the necessary factors that paved the way for how lousy has DOTC principally becomes the number one problem on how to manage the MRT in the way that is expected to satisfactorily serve the riding public. The present move where the government ordered 48 new coaches from China, claiming it is cheaper, is probably a lame excuse to salvage its "lost image and credibility" on account of the $30M extortion attempt made by MRT3 manager to the Czechoslovakian ambassador which even earlier involved the "unsubstantiated involvement" of influential names closely connected to Malacanang.
