MANILA, Philippines – The Bagong Alyansang Makabayan (Bayan) has chided presidential spokesperson Salvador Panelo for disputing their assertion of an allegedly prevailing “mass transport crisis” in the National Capital Region. Bayan Secretary-General Renato Reyes said Tuesday that Panelo’s declaration that there is yet a mass transport crisis in Metro Manila clearly displays the Palace official’s ignorance of the “daily sufferings” of commuters.

He knows nothing about the daily sufferings of people bearing miserable public transport conditions,” Reyes said in a text message. Earlier, Panelo said there is yet a mass transport crisis in NCR because metro dwellers are still able to arrive at their destinations.
