METRO MANILA- Traffic remains a persistent problem for Filipinos. But what will the next president of the country do to immediately address this issue?
The five presidential candidates offered their solutions in the third presidential debate, organized by Town Hall Debate organized by the Commission on Elections, KBP, ABS-CBN and Manila Bulletin, on Sunday (April 24) at the Phinma University of Pangasinan.
Sen. Miriam Defensor-Santiago, who was the first to speak on the issue, said new railways should be built.
"We have to build a new railway system connecting Manila to inter-connecting provinces like Bulacan, Cavite and Laguna," she said.
She added it would also help to add an entirely new railway system connecting Manila to Sorsogon.
Santiago also said strict discipline among private and public vehicle drivers must be enforced and that the Land Transportation Office (LTO) should only issue driver's licenses to qualified people.
