snoop1130 Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Commuters avail free rides as part of the “Libreng Sakay” program at the Monumento EDSA carousel bus station in Caloocan City on August 6, 2022. The STAR / Jesse Bustos, File MANILA, Philippines — The EDSA Bus Carousel may not bring back its free ride services anytime this year, with the government possibly just providing discounts to passengers and subsidy to riders. Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) chairperson Teofilo Guadiz III on Friday shared this due to limitations in budget in the hopes that it would still make commuting bearable to the riding public. "Para mapagkasya po itong pondo ng gobyerno, at para maisama po lahat ng transportasyon, magbibigay po sila ng discount, discounts to be given to those who will be availing of this ‘Libreng Sakay,’" said the LTFRB official in a media briefing. (To be able to make do with the state's existing budget, they will be giving... discounts to those who will be availing this 'Libreng Sakay.')
