00:14 LRT Line 2 is the fastest transportation
00:17 that will enter the school of Wilma's children.
00:19 Their 30 pesos single journey ticket from Antipolo, Paligarda
00:23 will be 35 pesos starting tomorrow.
00:26 It's cheaper if you have stored value cards.
00:29 The fare will only increase by 50 pesos
00:33 or reduce the amount of food.
00:36 Many will adjust, including LRT 1,
00:39 especially this month, the entry of many.
00:41 The fare for those using stored value card or BIP card
00:44 will be 14 pesos for the nearest
00:47 and 35 pesos for the farthest,
00:50 from the previous 12 pesos to 29 pesos.
00:53 Single journey ticket is a bit more expensive.
00:55 My allowance is only for the fare.
01:02 Even for the purchase, the fare is too high.
01:06 The Department of Transportation and LRTA
01:10 almost imposed the fare for both LRT Line 1 and 2.
01:14 According to the government, even if they increase the fare,
01:17 the fare for these lines still has a subsidy
01:21 that the government is paying.
01:23 According to the DOT, the fare is 148 pesos
01:27 for each passenger of LRT.
01:29 According to Light Rail Manila Corporation,
01:31 the fare is lower than what they asked for.
01:34 They said that the increase in fare will help the operation
01:36 and to recover the 1.46 billion pesos fare deficit.
01:41 They will ensure that the fare will be paid
01:44 by the facilities and services of LRT 2.
