                    [Summary] => Faced with cutthroat competition posed by the low fare rates of the Metro Rail Transit (MRT), bus companies announced yesterday that they will be lowering fares for air-conditioned buses for a one-week "trial period."


Claire de la Fuente, president of the Integrated Metro Manila Bus Operators Association (IMMBOA), said the rollback of the minimum fare for air-con buses, from P9 to P7.50, will in particular affect buses plying EDSA.

Ayon kay LTFRB chairman Len Bautista, hindi dapat na sumabay sa inaprubahang P1.50 dagdag sa singil sa pasahe ng mga pampasaherong jeep, ang mga driver at operators ng FX taxi dahil wala naman silang aplikasyon para sa fare increase kaya wala silang karapatan na magtaas.

Ang P1.50 dagdag-pasahe ay ipatutupad sa Hunyo 9.
