The organized group of public vehicle operators and drivers took to the streets to deliver what they called their version of the SONA, a week before Marcos Jr. delivers his third annual address about the country’s state before Congress. The group said the program has also resulted in a scarcity of PUVs on Bacolod’s streets, adversely affecting the city’s commuters.because the government no longer granted them provisional authority when they failed to consolidate into transport cooperatives after the May 30 deadline.

One of the cooperatives, the Bacolod Modernized Jeepney Transport Association , complained that its members have been suffering substantial losses because the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board failed to take action against those still operating and driving traditional jeepneys.
