Maglulunsad ng 2-araw na welga ang mga grupo sa transportasyon

Maglulunsad ng dalawang-araw na transport strike sa Huwebes at Biyernes ang koalisyon ng mga grupo sa transportasyon, commuters, at manggagawa upang humiling ng mas kongkretong aksyon ng gobyerno laban sa pagtaas ng presyo ng gasolina. Inaasahan na sumali ang mga 500,000 na driver ng public utility vehicle. Magde-deploy ang PNP ng 50,000 personnel at magbibigay ng libreng sakay.

MANILA, Philippines — Nag-anunsyo ng dalawang-araw na transport strike sa March 26 at 27, 2026, ang No to Oil Price Hike Coalition, kasama ang PISTON, Defend Jobs Philippines, Manibela, at Laban TNVS. Ayon kay PISTON president Mody Floranda, mas malaking mobilisasyon ito dahil sumasali ang UV express, bus, TNVS, at motorcycle taxi drivers. Humihiling ang grupo ng pag-alis ng buwis sa gasolina, pagbabalik ng presyo ng langis sa P55 bawat litro, pag-alis ng oil deregulation law, at pagpataas ng pamasahe kasabay ng minimum wage. Si Manibela chairman Mar Valbuena ay nagsabing, “We don’t want commuters to sacrifice or be inconvenienced. But you’re not listening to our grievances,” na ibinabangga sa administrasyon Marcos. Ayon kay Sandy Hachaso ng Bus Employees Association of the Philippines, hindi sinasadyang magkasabay ito sa Holy Week dahil sa 'negligence of the government and US aggression.' Mga 5,000 TNVS units ang magsasara ng aplikasyon. Magde-deploy ang PNP ng 50,000 personnel at libreng sakay para sa commuters at kaligtasan.
