Saving Jobs Amid the Fuel Crisis: The Genius of Victory Liner’s ‘Bayanihan Shuttle'

When the price at the pump climbs faster than a bus on a mountain pass, most companies start looking for the "Exit" sign. But for a transport giant like Victory Liner, staying stationary wasn't an option—not when thousands of livelihoods were riding on their next move. ​ Beyond the Terminal: Victory Liner’s Bold Plan to Save Jobs ​The Philippine transport sector is currently staring down the barrel of a global oil crisis.

LTFRB’s Komyu-Konek Hotline: Finally, a way to report abusive PUV drivers that actually works

The bus that turns EDSA into its personal parking lot while belching black smoke into your lungs. For years, we just swallowed it and vented on Facebook because reporting felt pointless. The LTFRB just changed that. They launched Komyu-Konek, a Viber hotline that lets you report abusive PUV drivers with photos and video straight from your phone. And the kicker? They’re actually built to act on it.  Your New Superpower Against Abusive Commutes Let’s be honest. When you’ve got your own car or motorcycle, PUV problems are background noise. You’ve got AC, your playlist, and zero strangers arguing with the conductor. You leave on your time. Then fuel prices exploded. Suddenly “background noise” became your 6AM ...
