Incident Details

Jeepney drivers affiliated with the Federation of Drivers and United Transportation Terminals (Manibela) have launched a strike to urge the government to address rising fuel prices. The group is also calling for a fare increase across all public utility vehicles to help drivers cope with higher operating costs. The nationwide transport disruption is expected to place additional pressure on the government’s free-ride program, lead to travel delays, and increase demand for alternative modes of transportation.
