Business tycoon Manuel V. Pangilinan has made an offer to the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) to invest between PhP 4.5 billion to PhP 8 billion for the purchase of brand-new trains and rehabilitate the facilities of the EDSA-based Metro Rail Transit (MRT).
It is about time that the public transport system gets the support to overhaul the depreciating capacity of the MRT. It was estimated that the daily capacity of the MRT line is about 360,000 passengers but it is currently serving a ridership of 488,000 passengers a day.
