in the hanoi mm which is ongoing right
now pero Iyung hanoy is more on elevator
metro L Bakit na naging concept subway
dito sa area na
to napakahirap gawing elevated so dapat
gawin nating subway hindi natin
maapektuhan yung mga lumang buildings na
from French era so dapatan lang tayo sa
subway 2016 ang unang target date ng
comple ng subway pero nagkaron daw sila
ng road right of way issue oh gawa n
Right of way problem at saka d sa

Kasi mauuna sila sa atin It's something
that na Parang iniisip mo na kailangan
mo noonon pa pero ngayon mo lang gagawin
[Musika]
sa Pilipinas may subway rin na binubuo
Bahagi ito ng build build build program
ng
gobyerno ginawa ang groundbreaking nito
Noong February 2019 nagkaroon na raw ng
preconstruction activities gaya ng
awarding ng titulong lilipatan ng mga
apektadong residente 1977 plan for Metro
Manila already propos a subway network
unfortunately It took us 30 years before
we even start to build Our first so nung
February of this year napirmahan natin
yung kontrata for the first segment of
the subway December We will start
construction na doon sa depot natin in
Valenzuela gaya ng dinaanan ng hin
subway project may Road right of issue

mrt7 hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin daw
maitayo ang magsisilbing huling terminal
at para dahan ng mga bago ng
mrt7 nang bisitahin namin ang mrt7 noung
October 2018
30.7% completed na
ito sa ngayon ayon sa dotr nasa
49.2 completed ang
mrt7 ang original date of completion
nito na 2020 magiging second quarter ng
2021 Syempre Nandiyan yung mrt7 silipin

natin
siya sa lahat ng railway project ng
ang pinakamalapit ng maging operational
ay ang lrt2 East Masinag Extension
nabyahe mula Santolan hanggang Masinag
sa Antipolo lrt2 alam natin na meron
tayong patapos na e Extension additional
4 km papuntang Masinag operational by
next year sa railway project anang
ongoing
construction is ang ongoing
rehabilitation at
construction Ganito ang itsura ng ating
train Lin sa
ngayon at kung matatapos ang lahat ng
pinaplanong railway system ng gobyerno
magkakaroon ng karagdagang Haba na 1900
km sinamahan kami ni bbb chairperson
Anna m meno sa iba pang build build
build program ng gobyerno na may
kinalaman sa transportasyon ito yung mga
na hindi talaga natin matatapos within a
12 month time frame kumbaga reasonable
timeline is about 24 months to 36 months
[Musika]
h ka ba delikado diyan baka mahulog
ka wala na pong choice walang choice
Kapit
lang November 2017 ang una naming
makilala si Carmelita vito habang
nag-aabang ng bus si
EDSA kwento niya 5 ng hapon pa siya
umaalis sa opisina para umuwi ng
valenzuela city kung ikukumpara mo ate
yung karanasan mo ng pagsakay mo
araw-araw sobrang hirap po napakahirap k
sobrang ah Para kang siksikan araw-araw
sobrang di mo alam kung paano ka
makakasakay ng kasi ang halos ngayon mga
lalaki biaan eh Kaya pausog
[Musika]
po dahil punuan na hindi nakasakay si
Carmelita sa unang
subo nang makasakay sa ikalawang bus
Nagsimula na ang dalawang oras niyang
biyahe pauwi ng
[Musika]
bahay Makalipas ang dalawang taon
kinumusta namin si
Carmelita 4:3 pa lang ng madaling araw
Gising na siya para maghanda papasok sa
kanyang
[Musika]
trabaho ang problema kahit gumigising pa
siya ng maaga may mga pagkakataong
nahuhuli siya sa pagpasok malaking
epekto non kasi ang epekto non unang-una
sa salary increase ko dapat meron ako so
nakausap ako ng Man ko pinaka-worst na
suspension ko na nakuha within Ilang
buwan pa lang 15 days dahil Anong
nangyari dahil sa
[Musika]
traffic tatlong busang lumagpas bago
siya
nakasakay ako
at dahil traffic sa Mcarthur highway
inabot pa rin ng dalawang oras ang byahe
niya
[Musika]
pauwi Wala raw ipinagbago sa sitwasyon
niya noong 2017
[Musika]
Al lumalala sabi Ayoko na nga magcommute
kung pwede nga lang Ayoko na lumabas
ayoko na R pwedeng h magtrabaho hindi
naman pwede y so susuong ka talaga
lalaban ka pa rin sa
daan
choice base sa ginawang global
competitiveness report ng world economic
forum makikita na kung noong 2014
panglima tayo sa mga Asian member States
sa kategoryang transport infr
nagpatuloy ang pagbaba ng ating rank sa
mga sumunod na
taon hanggang sa 2019 Pilipinas na ang
pang siyam o pinakamababa sa lahat ng
Asian member States kung transport
infrastructure ang pag-uusapan one major
difference is that mainland itong mga
ito tayo archipelago so watak-watak tayo
no ah sa dami nung Islands natin ano So
mas malaki ung challenges na kailangan
nating harapin pagdating doun sa
infrastructure yung urban railway system
yun yung Medyo nauna tayo nauna tayo
magplano siguro nauna tayong
magconstruct pero hindi natin na-sustain
again mararaming reasons diyan including
political reasons so Actually pag tining
nga natin yyung to be blunt about it
sinasabi natin kasalanan ng maraming
administrasyon it's not just a single
administration na pwedeng sabihin natin
ah responsible for Uh our transportation
system as we know with now patuloy naman
daw ang gobyerno ng Pilipinas sa paggawa
ng mga bagong Road connectivity
projects kabilang na ang Luzon spine
Expressway network Bahagi ito ng build
build build of bbb program binubuo ito
ng karagdagang L major expressways mula
sa Northern Luzon Metro Manila hanggang
Southern
Luzon kung matatapos ang buong Luzon
spine Expressway network inaasahang
magiging siyam na oras na lang ang
biyahe mula Ilocos hanggang Bicol this
will decongest EDSA C5 and other main
tor fairs by about 70 to 100,000
vehicles Kasama rin sa bill bill build
program ang pagtatayo at pagsasaayos ng
mga
tulay at pagtatayo at improvement ng mga
airport sa iba't ibang panig ng bansa
we've already completed about
9,800 bridges and about 4,000 FL troll
projects ito yung mga project na hindi
talaga natin matatapos within a 12 month
time frame kumbaga reasonable timeline
is about 24 months to 36 months So this
is essentially the goal of bild bild
bild to improve the way and the
connectivity not just in Metro Manila
but in every region in the
country sa pagpunta namin sa tong
kalapit bansa ng Pilipinas nalaman
naming may pagkakapareho tayo May
traffic din sa Thailand siksikan din ang
mga bo sa
Cambodia at may Road right of way issue
sa Vietnam pero nakita rin naming
gumagawa sila ng paraan para
masolusyunan ang problema
[Musika]
nila kung matutupad ang mga target ng
gobyerno sa Pilipinas gaya ng bagong
railway Road at bridge Jack pwede na rin
tayong makipagsabayan sa
rehiyon sa susunod na linggo aalamin ng
reporter's notebook ang estado ng
agrikultura sa ating mga kalapit bansa
dito sa Thailand isa sa mga itinutulong
ng gobyerno sa kanilang mga magsasaka ay
libreng patubig katulad nito Hanggang sa
susunod na hbes ako si Macky pulido Ako
si June veneration at ito nakatala sa
aming reporter reporter notebook
