Getting rid of a mouse?
But walk away and don't watch, or the sight of it struggling to get out may horrify you for years to come. A friend told me..... Here's the last one I treated to some water-boarding. I didn't stay around to watch it pass peacefully... -

Transport Groups Demand Action on Delayed Transport Modernization Program
File photo for reference only MANILA, Philippines — On Monday, five major transport groups, collectively known as the "Enormous 5," will push the government to proceed with the Public Transport Modernization Program (PTMP), amidst a planned transport strike by groups opposing the initiative. Launched in 2017, the PTMP aims to phase out non-roadworthy public utility vehicles (PUVs) and replace them with units boasting Euro 4-compliant engines, reducing pollution and improving public transport standards. The groups, including Pasang Masda, Altodap, Acto, Busina, and Curoda, support the PTMP and will gather outside the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB) office in Quezon City. They urge the Department of Transportation (DOTr) to continue with the program for the benefit of compliant participants, emphasizing the need to address program issues without suspending its implementation. Pasang Masda President Obet Martin stressed that suspending the PTMP would disregard the efforts of those who already invested in modernized vehicles. He urged Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon to resist pressure from groups using the issue for political gain, asserting that the program's intentions align with providing safe and organized public transport. Despite calls for dialogue, transport group Manibela plans a four-day strike to protest alleged inaccuracies regarding PTMP progress. In response, schools in Metro Manila, Cavite, and Bulacan have shifted to online learning for the strike's duration. The government plans to deploy additional buses and trains to alleviate commuter disruption, with free rides provided in affected areas by the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority. Manibela President Mar Valbuena criticized the government's reported consolidation figures, claiming significant discrepancies. The LTFRB reported 86% of PUVs joined the program, but Valbuena insists only 43% completed the necessary consolidation, with many applications still pending. While respecting Manibela's stance, Piston President Mody Floranda opted against joining the strike, urging dialogue and the suspension of the PTMP's route rationalization component. Floranda warned that unresolved issues might lead to future protests. Transportation Secretary Dizon is expected to decide on the PTMP's fate within two weeks. The decision will consider feedback from both pro- and anti-PTMP stakeholders, aiming to achieve a balanced resolution that prioritizes commuters' needs and operators' concerns. Martin emphasized the importance of dialogue to avoid further strikes and allow the new DOTr leadership to address all stakeholder issues, reported Inquirer. -- 2025-03-24
