Good news to passengers traveling between the cities of Makati and Mandaluyong.
A fleet of electric jeepneys has been launched by ‘eSakay,’ Meralco’s electric vehicle subsidiary, to service the Buendia MRT Station – Mandaluyong City Hall route for a minimum fare of P9.00.
According to chairman of the board Manuel Pangilinan, this initiative is Meralco’s bid to become an end-to-end vehicle solutions provider.
“The government’s thrust in implementing the PUV modernization program opens up the opportunity to shift towards the safer, sustainable and environmentally friendly transportation system,” said Pangilinan.
“Meralco has been supportive because we believe EVs have a place amongst PUVs,” he added.

High-Tech Features

The e-jeepney has a capacity of up to 40 passengers and can run up to 100 kilometers when fully charged. It is also 100 percent electric and boasts onboard wifi, an automated fare collection system, a GPS tracking system, and CCTV cameras.
The feature that passengers would surely love, however, is the USB ports that allows for charging of mobile devices.
‘eSakay’s’ launch is in line with the Department of Transportation’s relentless effort to provide quality, safe, and environment-friendly public transport under the government’s PUV Modernization program.

Isang lalaking may kapansanan, namimigay ng libreng face mask sa mga tao

Photo from The Daily Sentry Sa gitna ng hindi matigil-tigil na paga-alburoto ng Taal Volcano, isang person with disability ang namataan na nagkakakawanggawa. Ito ay sa kabila ng kanyang kondisyon at kasalukuyang sitwasyon na maaari mismo niyang ikapahamak. Base sa video na in-upload ng netizen na si Marty Karlo Adarlo, mapapanuod ang isang lalaking may kapansanan na namimigay ng libreng surgical face mask sa mga motoristang dumadaan. Kahit naka face mask ang lalaki, makikitang hindi nito alintana ang kapahamakan na dala ng hangin kung kaya inuna pa nito ang pagmamalasakit sa kapwa. Ayon sa ilang mga balita, nagkaubusan na ng face mask sa halos lahat ng pharmaceutical stores matapos magsimulang magbuga ng abo ang nagngangalit na bulkang Taal noong Linggo, January 12.

The self-righteousness and hypocrisy of activists ruin otherwise noble advocacies

Photo from getrealphilippines.com There are a lot of hypocrites in the Philippines. I think it has something to do with the country being religious. Mind you, being religious is different from being spiritual. Being religious is easy. It’s simply following dogma or “set of principles laid down by an authority as incontrovertibly true”. One doesn’t have to think much when one chooses to be religious. As a matter of fact, a lot of religious folks don’t think. They just follow whatever everyone else is doing in their religious organisation. Being spiritual is something else. It means being in tune with yourself and other people. It has more to do with following the natural flow of things. When someone is spiritual, it means he or she is in touch with everything around him or her. I think it’s the opposite of being religious because when a person is spiritual, that person is aware of her surroundings as opposed to blocking out what is happening in real life.
