                    [Summary] => 

It took a street-wise person like Presidential Spokesman Fernando Barican to
observe that traffic lights in busy intersections like Paseo de Roxas and
Makati Avenue are being tampered with, not to relieve a bad traffic situation,
but to confuse the motorist into unwittingly breaking the law thus giving
crooked policemen the opportunity of stopping motorists who have to pay the
policeman to avoid arrest.

Barican also noted in such busy intersections, policemen are never on sight
directing traffic.

                    [Title] => LRT fare up to P12 before end of month
                    [Summary] => 

Transportation Secretary Vicente Rivera Jr. said the fare of the Light Rail
Transit (LRT) will increase from P10 to P12 before this month ends.

In an interview, Rivera said that President Estrada has not officially given
his nod but has approved it "in principle." "LRT fares will increase soon. The
President requested that it not be done during the Yuletide season, so most
likely, the increase will be implemented before January ends," he added.

The Light Rail Transit Authority (LRTA) sought a P5-increase to generate funds
for the rising cost of operating the elevated trains.
