50 cents fare increase was postponed

The non stop increasing of gasoline price results chain increases of basic commodities prices.Thus results also for the fare increase.Few days ago,I read that there will be 50 cents fare increase again nationawide in the Philippines.All PUJs in the country will charge 50 centavos more in the current minimum fare which covers the first four kilometers traveled.It will be another pain in the butt for the Filipino people who can't even afford to buy foods.I even heard when I went home last year that many people didn't want to travel much and just stayed at home because of the expensive fare of jeepneys.How much more if they continue to increase the fare?Luckily,the Department of Transportation and Communications postponed it and conduct further study.What a relief!
