Kaban ni D_BystandeR: MOTORSIKLONG GIHABALHABAL SA SRP GIPANGHIPOS
It's a
sad thing to realize that the poor in its quest to fight economic regression
caused by some factors, among others,
the government's failure to offer jobs to thousands of the unemployed, are now
being subjected to strict CITOM ruling (as proposed), now clamping on their
"ingenuity" to reach their destination Cebu City - through the
fastest, easiest way thru SRP by means
of riding a motorcycle (the only means of transportation their pockets can
afford to buy to help them report to their work place) and some other means by
using privately owned vehicles to transport them to their work in Cebu City
from Talisay. The Cebu City
CITOM disclosed that they have already apprehended 19 "colorums" used
by people who worked in Cebu City. And this is another thing that posed a great
problem to commuters who just want to
work in Cebu City with their means to go there being subjected to the
"rules" as if they are going through the "eye of a needle."
But Mayor JVR expressed his agreement to the proposal to ban the motorcycles
from using the SRP only for one month.
Maybe Mayor JVR finds one month acceptable to him because he is not like some of
his constituents in Talisay that we call, "kakha-tuka!" Ug wa kay
trabaho sa usa ka adlaw maglabad na imong tingkoy asa ka'g ipakaon sa imong
pamilya tungod sa ilang kalisud nga nagsalig lang sa inadlaw-adlaw nga
panarbaho.
