WHERE'S THE MONEY FOR MRT-3 REPAIRS?

WHERE the hell is the MONEY for repairs of the MRT-3? This is the question we should all ask, people, following the latest MRT-3 interruption of operationbs, this time on the northbound lane between the Ortigas and Santolan stations at 7:54 p.m. last night, Thursday. Worst, as inquirer.net reported, the passengers were Aside from that, he said passengers were made to wait clueless and in near suffocation for about 40 minutes before finally deciding  on their own to get of the train and walk on the tracks to Santolan, despite the risks due to the darkness

It’s been, more or less, two months since MRT-3 fares were raised by MORE THAN 50 PERCENT supposedly for repairs and rehabilitation of the train line and other matters. The estimated revenues from the increase was as much as P2 billion. Since then, except for replacement of railroad tracks for the past several Sundays, MRT-3 passengers and the public in general, have NEVER HEARD ANYTHING as to WHERE THE MONEY IS GOING, OR IS BEING SPENT. I’m not an engineer but I’ will dare say that the tracks alone WILL NOT COST P2 BILLION.

MRT-3 riders and the people don’t have any idea, as in NONE, HOW MUCH has been spent on supposed repairs and rehab.  Anybody correct me if I’m wrong b but to date, the MRT management has NEVER GIVEN A PUBLIC BREAKDOWN  of what particular repairs or rehabilitation works must be done and how much will each cost, before they increased fares sky-high. Passengers and the public as a whole do not k now anything on what repairs or rehab works have been done, if indeed anything has or is being done.

Sa madaling salita, WALA TYAYONG GARANTIYA na ginagastos nga sa dapat pagkagastusan ang kita mula sa mas mataas na pasahe sa MRT, at HINDI NINANAKAW LAMANG.Pero hanggang ngayon, TULOY ANG KALBARYO NG MGA PASAHERO, hindi lamang sa napakataas na pasahe kundi pati na rin sa mga pasilidad mismo ng mga tren at ng istasyon. Tuwid na daan ba ika mo, PNoy, DOTC Sec. Jun Abaya? 30
