Transport strike set on Monday
Published : 2005-09-08 All is set for the incoming nationwide transport strike this Monday, September 12. Transmission-Piston spokesperson Edcel Gonzaga said that nothing could stop them from paralyzing transportation to show their protest on the current economic and political situation. Wala nay makapugong sa ipahigayon namo nga strike, dayon gyud kini sa maong adlaw,” Gonzaga said. The group calls for the scrapping of the oil deregulation law which they believe has only served to burden the drivers and consumers. The group said that if the oil deregulation law will be scrapped, the prices of petroleum products will stabilize. It also calls for a P25 up to P26 rollback on oil prices. The transport strike planned on Monday will be participated by different progressive groups in the city. Transmission is also asking for the cooperation and understanding of the drivers and commuters because everyone is affected by the oil hike. The transport strike on Monday will have choke points located at Buhangin, Sasa-Panacan, DMC, Freedom Park, Bankerohan, Matina-Maa Crossing, Ulas-Matina Crossing, Magsaysay Park and Anda-San Pedro St. The transport groups are aiming a 98 percent stoppage of public transportation.
