The Department of Transportation is seeking a dialogue with Manibela after the transport group announced that it will be holding a three-day transport strike starting Monday, March 24.
The agency said sitting down for a dialogue will keep commuters safe and comfortable while ensuring that the welfare of jeepney drivers and operators are protected. This assertion was supported by a recent statement from the DOTr chief, where he said only 43 percent of the consolidation figures were actually approved by the LTFRB.
If the transport strike pushes through, the DOTr are preparing contingencies to ensure that commuters will not be affected.
