  • The Arithmetic Behind and Beyond the Proposed Manila Subway
    The Arithmetic Behind and Beyond the Proposed Manila Subway by Manny Gonzalez Though my present occupation is that of an innkeeper in Cebu, in a past incarnation I was an investment officer at World Bank-IFC on the Latin American desk. My specialty was running the numbers on private-sector projects, from small ones like a US$ 200 thousand sugar-mill rehabilitation in Haiti, to larger ones like a US$ 1 Billion copper mine expansion in Mexico. “Running the numbers” includes: determining that the cost estimates are reasonable and comprehensive; forecasting the financial and economic returns, and evaluating whether a project has an appropriate scope and economy of scale In all investment analysis, a healthy scepticism is useful. On one occasion I was assigned to recommend ways to improve profitability in an investment company headquartered in Midtown Manhattan, supposedly worth US$ 1 Billion. It was owned by the world’s then top companies in banking and industry (Citibank, GE, Morgan, IBM, Deutsche, etc. – and that was the problem: with so many illustrious parents, no one felt responsible for watching its numbers). After visiting most of its branches around Latin America and evaluating its asset portfolio, I realized it wasn’t even worth US$100 Million. I recommended shutting it down. Suddenly, a lot of big-name banks and companies were telling me my numbers must be wrong. But they weren’t. The company was liquidated. The proposed 36-km Manila Subway Phase One also has many illustrious parents or backers in both government and industry. And, as with the case described above, no one has looked closely at the numbers.

  • An Empirical Study Conducted in Hong Kong's Underground MTR Platforms
    !1 The effects of Platform Screen Doors on air quality in underground subway platforms and train cabins An empirical study conducted in Hong Kong’s underground MTR platforms and trains using portable aerosol monitors Hongjin LIN Under the guidance of Professor Jimmy Fung Environment Studies Division at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Urban Environment Policy Department at Occidental College August 13rd, 2016 !2 1. Introduction Underground rapid transit system has become an essential element of urban citizens’ daily lives since the world’s first underground mass transportation system started operations in London in 1863. After 153 years of expansion, there are more than 150 subway systems in the world in the year of 2016, servicing commuters in New York, Beijing, Tokyo, Barcelona, Seoul and other major cities in the world (UITP statistics, 2015). Its high efficiency, large capacity and many other unique benefits enable subway system to become one of the most popular transportation modes in urban areas where residents spend an average of 1-2 hours (12.5%-25%) of a working day underground commuting to and from work (UITP statistics, 2015). Among the world’s busiest subway networks, Hong Kong’s Mass Transit Railway (MTR) system runs 20 hours and 8,000 train trips per day, with an average daily ridership of 4.69 million (Hong Kong Government stats, 2016). Since its first operation in 1979, MTR is by far the most popular transportation mode in Hong Kong, accounting for 41% of the total 12 million public transport passenger journeys made daily (Hong Kong Government stats, 2016).
