  • Nytårsrejsen Til Filippinerne – 2014
    Nytårsrejsen til Filippinerne – 2014. Martins Dagbog Dorte og Michael kørte os til Kastrup, og det lykkedes os at få en opgradering til business class - et gammelt tilgodebevis fra lidt lægearbejde på et Singapore Airlines fly. Vi fik hilst på vore 16 glade gamle rejsevenner ved gaten. Karin fik lov at sidde på business class, mens jeg sad på det sidste sæde i økonomiklassen. Vi fik julemad i flyet - flæskesteg med rødkål efterfulgt af ris á la mande. Serveringen var ganske god, og underholdningen var også fin - jeg så filmen "The Hundred Foot Journey", som handlede om en indisk familie, der åbner en restaurant lige overfor en Michelin-restaurant i en mindre fransk by - meget stemningsfuld og sympatisk. Den var instrueret af Lasse Hallström. Det tog 12 timer at flyve til Singapore, og flyet var helt fuldt. Flytiden mellem Singapore og Manila var 3 timer. Vi havde kun 30 kg bagage med tilsammen (12 kg håndbagage og 18 kg i en indchecket kuffert). Jeg sad ved siden af en australsk student, der skulle hjem til Perth efter et halvt år i Bergen. Hans fly fra Lufthansa var blevet aflyst, så han havde måttet vente 16 timer i Københavns lufthavn uden kompensation. Et fly fra Air Asia på vej mod Singapore forulykkede med 162 personer pga. dårligt vejr. Miriams kuffert var ikke med til Manilla, så der måtte skrives anmeldelse - hun fik 2200 pesos til akutte fornødenheder. Vi vekslede penge som en samlet gruppe for at spare tid og gebyr - en $ var ca. 45 pesos. Vi kom i 3 minibusser ind til Manila Hotel, hvor det tog 1,5 time at checke os ind på 8 værelser.

  • 1 the Cost of Fare-Free Public Transit in the COVID Economy
    The Cost of Fare-Free Public Transit in the COVID Economy: Looking into the Case of the EDSA Carousel Bus System in the Philippines Ivan Harris Tanyag University of the Philippines, Diliman ([email protected]) Abstract Transportation costs in public transit are usually fixed to provide mobility to the largest segment of the public. Subsidies are also provided in the form of discounts to students, the elderly, and persons with disabilities. Operators are subjected to follow a fare matrix based on the travel distance between two points. Subsidizing the full transportation costs would require the government to allot funding to cover the operation costs. Businesses may also provide free transit, though most of their operation is funded through corporate sponsorships. Only a few cities in the world currently operate on this scheme, most likely due to the resistance against fare-free public transit policies (FFPT). In the Philippines, this was introduced in a newly-built bus rapid transit (BRT) throughout the Epifanio de los Santos Avenue (EDSA), one of the major thoroughfares in Metro Manila during the onslaught of the coronavirus pandemic. This paper analyzes the contributory effect of an FFPT in the country's economy through a cost-benefit analysis. As most of the stations throughout the bus line are found in central business districts across the region, it has incentivized workers who heavily depend on public transit. It has also increased the level of mobility throughout the area, thus increasing the household consumption made. However, it has affected other public transit in the area, such as the Metro Rail Transit (MRT-3), whose operation also relies on government expenditures.
