Silva affirms LPCRTODA fare hike

Silva affirmed the increase of fare of the tricycle operators of Loreland-Pines City Royale from 12 to 14 pesos beginning Monday, Aug. 17.

"Eh sa patuloy na pagtaas ng presyo ng langis, nagdesisyon ang toda na taasan ang presyo ng pamasahe mula sa dose pesos magiging katorse pesos na,” Rene Silva, president of LPCRTODA said. Then he added, “nagcome up kami sa ganito kasi nahihirapan na ang mga drayber.”

This statement of Silva was supported by Sammy Beliver, one of the tricycle operators of LPCRTODA. He said that they don’t have in their hands the decision of the increase of oil price in the market, so as to avoid insolvency, the management must parallel the situation of the service fare to that of the oil price. He also said that it will benefit them more because it will guarantee them further earnings than before.

Meanwhile, a passenger, student as well as a resident of Loreland-Pines City Royale, Ruth de Leon, oppose the decision of the management. She said that her allotted allowance for a day will suffer at this situation because it is only enough for her everyday expenses.

Moment of Truth

Here we are,

in the best years of our lives.

With no way of knowing,

when the wheel'll stop spinning

cause we don'tknow where we're going...

and, here we are, on the best day of our lives.

And it's a go, lets make it last,

so cheers you all to that,

'cause this moment's never comin' back

I used to know her brother,

but I never knew I loved her,

'till the day she laid her eyes on me.

Now I'm jumpin' up and down,

she's the only one around,

and she means every little thing to me

I've got your picture in my wallet,

and your Phone number to call it,

and I miss you more,

Whenever I think about you,.

I've got your mixed tape in my Walkman,

been so long since we've been talkin'

and in a few more days,

we'll both hook up,

forever and ever

And here I am,

on the west coast of America

and I've been tryin' to think for weeks

of all the ways to ask you,

And now, I've brought you to the place,

Where I've poured my heart out,

a million times, for a million reasons,

To offer it to you

I used to know her brother,

but I never knew I loved her,

'till the day she laid hereyes on me.

Now I'm jumpin' up and down,

she's the only one around,

and she means every little thing to me

I've got your picture in my wallet,

and your Phone number to call it,

and I miss you more,

Whenever I think about you,.

I've got your mixed tape in my Walkman,

been so long since we've been talkin'

and in a few more days,

we'll both hook up,

forever and ever
