Lacson Pushes Data-Driven Help for Drivers Affected by Fuel Price Hikes

Lacson Pushes Data-Driven Help for Drivers Affected by Fuel Price Hikes

October 26, 2021 - Can the government ensure that the P1-billion aid for public utility vehicle (PUV) drivers affected by recent fuel price hikes will reach the intended beneficiaries, especially if it does not have an updated database of records?

Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson raised this question Tuesday as he pushed for a data-driven approach in extending much-needed help to drivers and other workers who lost their livelihoods due to the pandemic.

"Ang latest dito, maglalabas sila ng P1 bilyon pero sabi ng pangulo ninyo, saan mapupunta na naman? Galing sa national, ibababa sa local, dadaan sa ahensya, iva-validate ng kung anu-anong ahensya, hindi nakakarating sa dapat puntahan (The government plans to distribute P1 billion in aid to PUV drivers. But your president has asked where the money will end up. From the national government, the funds would pass through the local government, and will be validated by several government agencies - but may not reach the intended beneficiaries)," he said at a meeting in Lipa City, Batangas with leaders and members of the Federation of Jeepney Operators and Drivers Association of the Philippines (Fejodap) and Tricycle Operators and Drivers Association (TODA).

"Ito ang dapat tugunan kasi sa pandemya kung hindi data-driven ang ating gagamitin para sa pagtulong walang mangyayari kasi kung saan-saan mapupunta yan (I have repeatedly stressed this - that if our efforts to help will not be data-driven, we cannot achieve our goal)," he added.

In pushing for a data-driven approach, Lacson noted many Filipinos who needed cash aid (ayuda) under Bayanihan 1 did not get the needed assistance because the government used outdated records, which dated back to 2015.

Lacson, whose father worked as a jeepney driver, added that when he pushed for aid amounting to P5.58 billion for PUV drivers under Bayanihan 2, an oversight review showed only one percent of the fund was actually distributed. "Hindi ba nagmamalimos ang driver dahil nawalan ng trabaho (Don't we continue to see PUV drivers in the streets begging for help because they lost their livelihoods)?" he said.

Meanwhile, Lacson also suggested that the government's "Libreng Sakay" program tap the services of jeepney drivers, instead of just buses.

"Bakit hindi gamitin ang Libreng Sakay sa jeep na isa-subsidize ng gobyerno sa halip na ibigay libre sakay sa bus (Why not have the Libreng Sakay tap jeepney drivers instead of buses)?" he said.

The no-holds-barred meeting with local transport groups took up issues affecting the transport industry. "Narito ako para makinig kesa magsalita. (I'm here to listen more than to talk)," Lacson said.

On his Twitter account, Lacson noted the issues affecting the transport industry are "more complex than just dealing with the pandemic."

"I had a no-holds-barred dialogue with leaders and members of Fejodap & TODA in Lipa City this morning. Issues affecting the transport industry are more complex than just dealing with the pandemic. Resolving the issues they raised are being addressed. They will hear from me soon," he said.

Calabarzon Transport Groups Back Lacson's Presidential Bid

 Calabarzon Transport Groups Back Lacson's Presidential Bid

October 26, 2021 - Sen. Panfilo M. Lacson received the backing of transport groups in the Calabarzon district for his presidential bid in 2022, following a meeting with them in Lipa City in Batangas, on Tuesday.

Lacson, who is running for President under Partido Reporma, vowed to help the transport groups address the issues affecting them, especially during the pandemic.

"I had a no-holds-barred dialogue with leaders and members of Fejodap & TODA in Lipa City this morning. Issues affecting the transport industry are more complex than just dealing with the pandemic. Resolving the issues they raised are being addressed. They will hear from me soon," Lacson, whose father worked as a jeepney driver to send him and his siblings to school, said on his Twitter account.

Present at the consultation were Lipa City mayoralty candidate Retired Gen. Nestor Sanares and vice mayoralty bet Camille Lopez, who expressed support for Lacson.

Aldabest Arnaiz, president of People’s Will, said that while they do not need to stage a caravan for Lacson as they have no vehicles, they can march to show their support.

“Hindi po kami magka-caravan dahil wala kaming mga sasakyan, Pero kaya po naming magmamartsa (We may not have the cars for a caravan but we can march to show our support),” he said.

“Ang tawag po namin sa kanya ay Mr.Clean— ang nagiisang hindi tumanggap ng pork barrel (We call Lacson Mr. Clearn because he is the only senator who refused his pork barrel),” he added. “Hindi lang po Mr. Clean, Mr. Action Man pa (He is not just Mr. Clean, he is also Mr. Action Man)!”

He also said Lacson, during his stint as Philippine National Police chief from 1999 to 2001, brought down crime syndicates.

“Ang pondo ng bayan ay ibabalik sa mga tao sa pamamagitan ng serbisyo publiko (Lacson returned public monies to the public with his brand of public service),” he said.

Among the issues the transport groups raised were the ill effects of jeepney modernization and the Department of Transportation's "Libreng Sakay" on their livelihood.

"Hindi po namin kailangan ng perang ipinamimigay, kailangan po namin na magtagal ang aming hanapbuhay (We don't need financial aid. We need our livelihood)," added Solano Roxas, Fejodap president for Calabarzon.

For his part, Lacson said he and fellow senators have already stressed the need to make sure transport groups are prepared for the high costs of modernizing their jeepneys.

"Napakamahal ng jeep ang pagpapalitin ang jeepney. Hindi namin inaprubahan sa Senado. Sabi namin kailangan pag-aralang masusi kasi di kakayanin ng driver. At anong gagawin sa jeep na namamasada pa? Hindi na-resolve ang issue na yan dahil ang napakarami naming tanong sa DOTR hindi nasasagot. Maraming nadisplace lalo ngayong pandemya (It will be expensive to get a new jeepney. That's why we did not approve the modernization program in the Senate as the drivers cannot afford it. And what will we do with the jeepneys that are still roadworthy? Those are the questions the Department of Transportation has yet to answer. In the meantime, so many drivers are displaced due to the pandemic)," he said.

"Tahasan kong sasabihin na alam ko ang nararamdaman niyo dahil tatay ko mismo ang namamasada (I know what I am saying and I feel your plight because my father was a jeepney driver)," he added.

 POSTED FROM ENRICO CALDERON

With his palpable sincerity let us give closer attention to Senator Lacson's words and allow him the chance to serve us. Enough of the left and the right and their back and forth fighting. Let us put the rift of the Aquinos and the Marcoses behind us and move forward to a better future for our children from the center. Enough is enough, it is really tiring hearing of the same...aren't you?
