运输团体将于本周举行两天罢工

一个由运输团体、通勤者和工人组成的联盟将于周四和周五举行两天罢工,要求政府针对油价飞涨采取更有力的行动。预计约有50万名公共交通工具司机将参与其中。菲律宾国家警察将部署5万人,并在全国范围内提供免费乘车服务。

菲律宾马尼拉——包括PISTON、Defend Jobs Philippines、Manibela和Laban TNVS在内的“反油价上涨联盟”宣布,将于2026年3月26日和27日举行两天运输罢工。PISTON主席Mody Floranda在新闻发布会上表示:“这是一次更大规模的动员,因为我们有UV express(公共面包车)、巴士、交通网络车辆服务(TNVS)和摩托车出租车司机加入。”这些团体要求取消燃油税,将油价降至每升55比索,废除石油放松管制法,并要求在提高最低工资的同时同步上调票价。Manibela主席Mar Valbuena在向马科斯政府喊话时表示:“我们不希望通勤者做出牺牲或感到不便。但你们不听取我们的诉求。”菲律宾巴士员工协会的Sandy Hachaso澄清说,罢工并非特意选在圣周出行期间,并表示:“我们所有人都受到了影响,即使不是圣周。这是由于政府的疏忽和美国的侵略行为所致。”届时约5000辆TNVS车辆将关闭应用程序,数以千计的网约车司机将停止接单。菲律宾国家警察将部署5万名警力,并在全国范围内为通勤者提供免费乘车服务,以保障公共安全。
