Sa gitna ng gusot sa pagitan ng Department of Transportation (DOTr) at transport groups, mismong si Pangulong Ferdinand “Bongbong” Marcos nagsalita na rin sa isyu.
Direktiba ng presidente sa DOTr, baguhin ang pamamaraan ng pagpapatupad ng Public Utility Vehicle Modernization Program (PUVMP).
“Sa issue sa modernization na sinasabi, sa aking palagay ay kailangan ding gawin talaga ‘yan. Ngunit sa pag-aaral ko, parang hindi maganda ang naging implementation nung modernization,” wika ni Marcos.
“Tingnan natin. Siguro kaya natin kausapin ang mga transport groups at sabihin natin hindi, babaguhin talaga namin para hindi masyadong mabigat sa bulsa ng bawat isa,” dagdag pa ng Pangulo.
Ayon sa Pangulo, mas magandang opsyon kung refurbishing at hindi total phase out ang ipapatupad para sa ilang mga sasakyan.
“What if the driver takes good care of his jeep? Then he can still use it as long as it’s still safe,” saad nito.
Umaasa si Marcos na sa kanyang iminungkahing inisyatiba, makukumbinsi niya ang mga drayber at operators na ipagpaliban ang kanilang binabalak na protesta.
“Kawawa talaga ang tao at marami pang naghihirap at mas lalo pang maghihirap ‘pag hindi makapasok sa trabaho,” konsern ng presidente.
Habang sinusulat ang balitang ito, patuloy na naninindigan ang transport groups na itutuloy pa rin nila sa March 6 hanggang March 12 ang kilos-protesta kahit na naglabas na ng bagong sirkular ang Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) na nagsasabing extended hanggang December 31 ang jeepney phase out.
